Posted February 18, 201015 yr Just a really random question..... If it's likely that Liechtenstein COULD ever enter, and luxembourg and San Marino have entered in the past... Could the Faroe Islands ever enter, and do you think it could be possible?
February 18, 201015 yr I doubt it, seeing as unlike the others it isn't actually a country - it's owned by Denmark. Liechtenstein couldn't enter as they don't have their own TV station or something...
February 18, 201015 yr Author I know it's owned by Denamrk and all, but why is it that it can have it's own FIFA registered football team, and yet countries such as Greenland and Vatican City (Stpid country) not?
February 18, 201015 yr Well the UK has four national football teams rather than a British team. I suppose Greenland and the Vatican City don't have enough football playing people :lol: I could be completely wrong here, but Scotland are constantly wanting to enter ESC separate to the UK but I believe they can't because the BBC have the rights to show the contest across the whole of the UK. I would assume that for the Faroe Islands to enter, they'd have to have to be a memeber of the EBU if they aren't already, have their own TV channel and own the rights to televise the contest on that channel. I don't know for sure, but I'm guessing the ESC is shown on the same channel in Denmark as it is in the Faroe Islands, therefore it's the same situation as it is for Scotland and the UK. It would be hilarious if Scotland entered separately to the UK though, the UK would have to change it's name for the contest to "The United Nations of England, Wales and Northern Ireland" or something :lol:
February 19, 201015 yr Never heard about possible participation of the Faroe Islands, but I think it could be possible for England, Scotland & Wales to all enter separately. I don't want that to happen though. If the Faroe Islands could enter, we could have loads more countries in ESC. Aland Islands. Jersey, Guernsey. Balearic Islands (possibly each one separate), Canary Islands (once again, possibly each one separate). Liechtenstein couldn't enter as they don't have their own TV station or something... I think they got their own TV station last year or something, and are now looking to join the EBU

Whereas the Faroe Islands have a TV station: http://www.kringvarp.fo/ and Greenland has: http://www.knr.gl/
February 21, 201015 yr If England, Scotland and Wales entered seperately, who would be in the Big 4?? LOL! I think it'd probably be England since London is in England and that's where the UK capital is.

I think it'd probably be England since London is in England and that's where the UK capital is. That's my worry. I don't want to sound mean/selfish, but I like knowing my country is already in the final every single year, and I don't want to lose that. I fear that if the UK split up in ESC, than England might have to go through the semi-finals
February 22, 201015 yr i agree with tyron hahaaa, blake's a nutter. what a pointless poll that would be ;)
February 22, 201015 yr Poll closed. It isn't particularly relevant to Eurovision, and I'm pretty sure you can find out using the member search function...
February 22, 201015 yr Author i agree with tyron hahaaa, blake's a nutter. what a pointless poll that would be ;) Dan should be quiet ;)
February 22, 201015 yr The thread was about whether you are from Faroe islands... created twice... in the BJSC forum... :rofl: Edited February 22, 201015 yr by Ljósið
