Admittedly, he's probably spent more time living in England than in Wales by now, I'd have thought.

I played against and with Ryan, and he was then the captain of england schoolboys and represented salford at district level and gtr manchester at county level.

He represented England at Schoolboy level because he went to school in England - that was the criteria for selection, as opposed to where you were born so I don't think he had any choice in the matter at that level. Conversely I think that he could have played for either country at 'full' level - Wales because of birth/parentage and England because he was educated there. Is it right that his first major trophy as a schoolboy footballer was a cup final victory against Blackburn & Darwen schools (for Salford)? I seem to remember him making a comment during our glory years about the blue and white halved kit holding fond memories for him?
