Hmmm, interesting 1) I think many (inside and out) would object to the name! Unless you can persuade them it really means "Getting Boring" (sorry!), or some other moniker... 2) Are you *really* that hung up on the "American Way" of doing things? I believe they use the "send your best club as your National team" method because of the impracticality of assembling a truly "National" team - then again, it does seem to work, doesn't it! Forming a geocentric London "superteam" has potential, with a view to World Clubs, but I suspect that it'd be more worthwhile to tighten the geo rules and form two (at least) depending on what part of London you're in... and ensure that they attend stuff like LUS to help develop other players... So, with a view to following the American Way, as someone else said - maybe one day, but not yet...
