101 Saint Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 He was born in Mariupolis. He played for USSR and his passport stated his nationality as USSR. Ukraine wasn't recognised until the early mid nineties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StDuncM Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 Ukraine wasn't recognised until the early mid nineties. Not strictly accurate 101, as Ukraine was a member of the USSR from 1922 to 1991 and before that was a country in its own right. My mother was an Estonian refugee and loved to impart a bit of history from the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Saint Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 Good thread. Tried to collate all the names.

Albanian (Vata) Algeria (Djebaili) American (Kinnear) Australia (McBreen, Miotto, Robertson) Austria (Sekerlioglu) Canada (Dasovic, Xausa) Denmark (Lovenkrands) England Finland (Johansson, Paatelainen) France (Monachino, Roy) Guinea (Sylla) Iceland (Torfason) Italy (Innocentin) Rep of Ireland (Dunne, Gartland, Jackson etc...) FYR Macedonia/Yugoslavia (Stanic) Netherlands (Kemble) Netherlands Antilles (Daal) New Zealand (Paston) Northern Ireland (O'Boyle, Griffin etc...) Portugal (Simao, Morais) Scotland Sweden (Noren, Walemark etc...) Trinidad & Tobago (Scotland, Samuel) Ukraine/USSR (Baltacha) Wales (Jenkinson) Anymore suggestions? Jeezo!

O'Rourke Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 What better way is there to a spend a Saturday morning than chatting with you? You put the sun into my life. Unfortunately an afternoon of painting awaits, with open all mics on Radio Scotland providing the soundtrack. Two artists on the one forum? Come on the Killie!
