More details
Steve Coppell:
"I am a proud Englishman and would only like an English team.
"The countries are independent enough to have their own teams. I'm sure funding will be a problem for all those countries but if there is a need and a desire then it will be not too big a hurdle.
"I'm very much in favour of having just England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland."
Alex Salmond:
"Brown's British campaign has gone far enough and the people of Scotland should not have their national football team under threat due to the pursuit of his own political agenda.
"The SNP continues to support the SFA and urge them to hold firm in defence of the independence of both the Scottish football team and Scottish football.
"They are much better placed than Mr Brown to judge how to represent Scottish football in the international arena."
