thread_title:  Kosovo must play in the qualification matches! 

message: Someone has added a squad to the article, however the squad is unsourced, the Kosovo Football Association doesn´t mention it, and I am affraid that it is just OR and a random pick of players who someone would like to see playing in a Kosovo NT.  I´ll wait a day to see if someone presents evidence that those players are really part of some Kosovo national team, if not, the entire section will be deleted. FkpCascais (talk) 16:29, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, no one cared to source the squad or even mention if the Kosovar FA picked these players.  As I haven´t seen anything about Kosovo FA calling any squad recently, I will remove the squad section which seems totally made up. FkpCascais (talk) 18:26, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

message: If the biggest loss (5 goals) was an official game, then why include the biggest unofficial loss (2 goals) Joeykai (talk) 21:39, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  As you see at my edit I added an new option Permitted by FIFA and I left official as "not yet". Because saying official it's mean to have fully recognised by uefa and fifa. In other side unofficial mean not permitted by uefa and fifa and even recognised, thank you. Eni.Sukthi.Durres (talk) 22:06, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Allowed or disallowed by FIFA, that shouldn't matter. As long as they are matches against another NT, they are all Kosovo's games. I would get rid of the unofficial loss. --Bunjaktorollak (talk) 23:31, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  no pal you can't do it. It's important for others to know the time before and after Kosov was permitted to play a friendly match with other Fifa members. Eni.Sukthi.Durres (talk) 12:59, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Biggest loss 

message: Even though negotiations with FIFA and Serbia mean that teams from other nations may now play Kosovar teams without fear of reprisal from FIFA, does that mean FIFA sanctions the matches? My thought is no, because Kosovo is not a FIFA member. If one peruses FIFA's website to find results of matches, one will not find any record of Kosovo, or even of Martinique, who qualified for the final round of the 2014 CONCACAF Women's Championship which also served as the qualification tournament for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup. If FIFA has no records of Kosovo playing in any matches, then surely the matches were not sanctioned by FIFA. — Jkudlick tcs 16:08, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

I am searching for the missing names from the line-up, that is how I got to this forum.  Could it be that Kosovo and Albania played two games, one after another? I will try to confirm if there is any trouth in that game mentioned in the forum, or not. FkpCascais (talk) 18:44, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

message: I see there is some edit-warring over the flags indicating nationality of the coaches as Kosovo_national_football_team#Managerial_history. As far as I know and see it as common practice in most notable club and national team articles, the flags foor coaches should indicate the nationality of the coach at time he was coaching the team. Not birth, not present-day, but at time he was there coaching. Agreed? FkpCascais (talk) 01:27, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, it's the same with nations. if a country changes it's flag any flags used in articles for competitions or whatever occurring prior to that change use the flag from that time. Fenix down (talk) 06:02, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I am glad this discussion has started, but I dont agree. The flags are different because if a nation changes flags, it is still the same nation but just a new flag to be used. About people, it is a case of identity. If I were born in Barcelona, I would be Spanish and even if Catalonia (Barcelona area currently discussing independence) would break out from Spain, I would still be Spanish and should be indicated as such. It is my country that I was born into, so why should I not be displayed as such? Qed237 (talk) 09:16, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry QED, do you agree or not, your example seems to indicate that you stick with the original flag which is what is being argued above. We shouldn't be changing flags for historic managers to the current flag because they were not of that nationality at the time of their tenure. Fenix down (talk) 09:55, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Sorry if I was unclear (English is not my native language) and if this is still unclear let me know and I will explain as good as I can. I want flag from time of birth. If a person is born in Yugoslavia, he is Yugoslavian (is that how you say it?). Just like if I was born in Barcelona, Spain, I am Spanish (not catalan if Catalunya would become independent). Your nationality is what you were born into, and that is what flags in front of BLP's should represent. Qed237 (talk) 12:01, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I've changed them, also following FIFA nationality guidelines, so they're correct to the period they were coach.  Not sure why the SFR Yugoslavia flag is used to represent someone's nationality at the present.  VEOonefive 09:50, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

message: Ive noticed that under the Uefa competitions, specifically Euro 2008, Kosovo is mentioned as part of Serbia. This is not correct an is offensive. 2008 was when Kosovo declared independence from Serbia and that year marked the first attempt for Kosovo to join FIFA & Uefa. Kosovo declared independence in February and the event was held in June. Please fix to state not a Fifa member.
Also, why is the Kosovo FA logo missing from the top of the article?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.8.21.153 (talk) 20:35, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  UEFA competitions & Kosovo F.A. Logo at the start   

message: Dear editors, especially 
As long as there is no explanation as to which level of teams (professional teams or amateur teams) have played against Kosovo then I am removing the links of these teams with the articles of the existing teams even though the references set say the match that Kosovo played against Yugoslavia, in the Yugoslav composition were the professional players who played this match because of the mentality that Kosovo had with the opponent of Yugoslavia, which in this case was Albania (confirmed by Rajko Mitić). In order not to have a conflict between the editors if you admit it once again I am removing the links of these teams with the articles of the existing teams, this only applies to the chapter of the Yugoslav era. The moment they are clarified then we will add them. ManiacOfSport (talk) 13:16, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: There are explicitly mentions oh how those teams were Amateur teams of each of the republics and provinces. Those were NOT by any means nothing even remotelly close to "national teams". A team of SR Croatia did played against Indonesia but that has nothing to do with this Kosovo case. FkpCascais (talk) 22:45, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  Okay, but to the connection of the then team with the article of the current team as in the case of the Croatia-Indonesia match, when you click on the name of the PR Croatia [national amateur team], you immediately redirect to the article of the Croatian national team and seeing this action that is being done I have connected the names of the teams then with those of the current teams seeing that all those teams that at that time were amateurs are now professionals and play professional matches (except Vojvodina), which means that Bosnia national team is successor of Bosnia amateur team, Croatia national team is successor of Croatia amateur team, Kosovo national team is successor of Kosovo amateur team, [North] Macedonia national team is successor of Macedonia amateur team and Slovenia national team is successor of Slovenia amateur team and after independence from Yugoslav football have become professionals have become national teams. This is the only reason why I made this connection in order to show that Kosovo in the time of Yugoslavia had a team (at that time compared to the current quality, it was completely amateur), but that with the passage of time after the separation from Yugoslav football has turned into a professional team when all this transformation has taken off after 2014 when they are allowed to play friendly and was concretized in 2016 when it was accepted in UEFA and FIFA, while I also have a saved photo, where it is seen that Kosovo U20 (now U21) during the time of Yugoslavia had held a preparatory camp where in that camp was already the late Fadil Vokrri. BalkanianActuality (talk) 08:08, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: You are making a slight confusion there . The Croatian team that played a friendly against Indonesia in 1956 Croatia v Indonesia football match was NOT an amateur team. All Croatian players were professionals and the team was pretty much how Croatian national team would have looked at that point. It was the representative team of Croatian Football Subassociation. You can´t compare that with the amateur teams that played in that tournament you refer to. The amateur teams not only excluded the best players of each of the republics and provinces, but excluded all which played professionally. Yugoslav First League became fully professional in 1967, meaning, since then all players of all YFL clubs were professionals, while Yugoslav Second League was semi-profesional, with best players of major clubs often being professionals. Players playing abroad were almost allways professionals, unless they were playing in some minor amateur club. So, to make those "amateur national teams" they were left with mostly third league players. It is not even remotelly similar to real national teams. Amateur national teams is something more like railway workers teams, or, police teams, or post officers teams. Amateur teams were made in Yugoslavia to promote amateur football, so people could have fun and play without needing to be a pro. I think you are missing out the difference between professional and amateur. FkpCascais (talk) 19:35, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
