You don't like the National Anthem being played. You don't want Lottery money spent on it. You don't want this, you don't want that.

And maybe those players are put under enormous pressure to play for their homeland and perhaps an age limitation would remove some of the pressure from them, while nevertheless giving them an opportunity when they're young to play for their country in the Olympics, to allow them to play for their country in the World Cup like they do in the World Cup of soccer.
