:If it is public school related, yes by all means. Otherwise a separate article would be the way to go. Grant65 | Talk 18:37, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Several points, firstly "public school" in Scotland does NOT traditionally refer to private schools, this is an import from over the border. Secondly, it would be worth including mentions of Charterhouse's involvement in the development of Soccer. A long standing myth of soccer is that it has always been a working class game - in actual fact, many of the earliest players were from English private school backgrounds, and Oxbridge!!! --MacRusgail 15:37, 20 November 2006 (UT)
Yes, you are right, and in fact most of the leading independent schools in England, but not Scotland or Ireland, play soccer, often as a major sport. Examples are Eton, Winchester, Charterhouse and Westminster. This is a nice twist in the byzantine English class system. Millbanks (talk) 18:53, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: So should we call it British private school football games? Some Poms might object ;-) I agree about soccer. Grant65 | Talk 03:37, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
