rednwhites Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I understand this is a data issue, and I have taken it up in the relevant forum, but I did want to bring it to the attention of a more populated part of the forum. I'm Northern Ireland manager and wanted to call up Dele Adebola but it won't let me. Why? Because he is listed as having played for Nigeria. Dele has never represented Nigeria and this has to go down as severely poor research. I hope this will be changed in future versions! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taytaz Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 He might have been called up during the game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Dele Adebola has decalred himself for Nigeria, so he cannot be picked for NI. It happened many years ago, Sammy McIlroy tried to convince him to play for NI, but he said he was only interested in Nigeria. Should be in the data issues forum btw.

This is incorrect. As stated in my original post, this has been posted in the data forum too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 If it was posted in the data forum, why did you post it here? Before you say, 'I did want to bring it to the attention of a more populated part of the forum', the question remains, why? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DP Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 jeez, there's far more serious data issues around than whether some near to be retired, has been of a player has a cap or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Le God Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I would hardly call this a massive data error if indeed it is one. Certainly no need to post it in both the data forum and general discussion forum. By raising it in the data forum it will be dealt with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping the researcher responsible would see it and explain why he has made such a blatant mistake Oh, and you're wrong by the way. Dele turned down Nigeria for political reasons.
