No he isn't. Place of birth doesn't determine nationality.

He is South African. Just like I'm a New Zealander, despite living in Scotland. That kind of thing doesn't exactly change. I could live here the rest of my life and I'd still be a New Zealander.

And my cousin is Dutch...

He's lived in England for the past 21 years - out of 28 (?). Think that's good enough to be considered English by most people

His parents are English, he was brought up in England.

If you're born in a stable does it make you Jesus?

 

[Jamee999]

like the "english" sound of his name!

Andrew.

I'm not saying he's not English as well. But to say he isn't South African at all is a bit of a statement as far as I'm concerned. Why else would everyone have made such a big deal about a "South African playing for England"?

CW Rumour Mill

KP? - Kennett Vs Pietersen
Loddy Twinshins

The Cricket Web world has been recently rocked by Tarick Weber's racist comments involving the English cricket team currently touring CWLand. Whilst most were quiet and ignored the matter, Kevin Pietersen unleashed in this outburst.

"Pigs, eh? Weber is not even deserving to smell our equipment. We've beaten the best, and now we are the best. I just think he should have some respect. He can't even get into his country's crap Test team."
"Watch out young man. We'll teach you some respect."

When the comments were brought to the attention of CW Veteran pace bowler David "Pingy" Kennett, he responded thus;

"Whilst I must denounce the comments made by Tarick Weber, and am thoroughly ashamed that a CW member could stoop so low, I think KP should take heed of his own words. We will make him regret calling the CW XI crap, and he should expect no quarter. He WILL learn respect."

Bold words from the Veteran paceman, but if one thing is known for sure, he believes in himself.

Do they match your 'bling' shoes?

still looking for some

Hey, if it's the same deal with him, so be it - I don't control who gets all the attention about this stuff. I just know that all the media, including CricketWeb, has stated at some point that he is a South African, as have dozens of CW members. I'm not saying "he's not English", I'm just saying to say "he's not South African" is, to my knowledge of the man, incorrect. There are some people who can be of more than one nationality, in one way or another.

 

[Jamee999]

By blood, I'm half Scottish and half Romanian, but I consider my self English.

Weber's reaction on England and KP
by Reddy Tightpad


the leak that Tarick Weber called the CWland visitors ''those english pigs'' got picked up by CWland media.
after that Kevin Pietersen got air of it and immediately reacted on it with saying

He can't even get into his country's crap Test team."
"Watch out young man. We'll teach you some respect."

Weber reacted on a 1 on 1 interview with our reporter Reddy Tightpad
Weber said"my commant on the english was said in a private meeting with the lads. and I said it to talk them warm and get ready for the big game coming and the that I leaked out is a pitty, you cant even talk with your mates. We got a quiet a few players of Australian herritage and I know how badly they want to beat England after losing the ashes. And people must not forget how delighted I was when England regained it. and I am a big fan of England.''
On Pietersen Weber said ''how can he be offended? he's not even English! and the fact that I can't come into my so called crappy test team is because we got a damn fine squad with great atmosphere and all are quality cricketers!
and Pietersen must not forget this

K.P. Pietersen ct & b Weber 6 12 0 0

in the end Weber said ''If I offended anyone with calling them Pig I apologise''
after that Weber had to return to his home ground to join back the Green net trainings.

For some reason, a mysterious "R. Dauth" was approached for a comment on the recent scandal involving his "ex" CW 'A' teammate. "Look, he's a bit of a loose cannon, he did try to hit me with a lamp once, and he called me a 'Red commie *******', but really, you've gotta take the good with the bad. I mean, Tarique has so many redeeming qualities. For example, his name. Personally I'd appreciate it if Pietersen would stop acting as though he's English, i mean ffs, show some tact.

It's pretty lame imo."

Vaughan Slams CWBCC Stadium

Michael Vaughan has attacked the visibility at the CWBCC Stadium, saying it's "ridiculous and not up to International standard". The comment comes following the third Test match, when an amazing 34 catches were dropped between the two teams.

England dropped 15 of the catches over 2 innings, whilst the home side dropped an astounding 18 in the England first innings. Cricket Web wicketkeeper, Mørk dropped 9 catches in the match, but has not yet commented on the situation.

The CWBCC will launch a highly scientific investigation into the claims.

Pietersen says: "Thank God They're Rubbish"

Kevin Pietersen, dropped on 75, 92, 106, 124 has reported thanked the Cricket Web players for their hospitality. Pietersen was alleged as saying, "Thank God they're rubbish," when Goff dropped him on 124.

England management denies the comment was made, and no official report has been made
by the Cricket Web players to the match referee or either of standing umpires.

Pietersen himself laughed off the allegation and said, "What farfetched trash will they fabricate next... but no comment."
