From Bury's Rivals Page

"The lure of an Olympic tournament wasn't enough for Bury midfielder Terry Dunfield who chose club over country this month. Dunfield has been performing superbly of late and decided that he should continue with league action rather than join up with Canada's Under-23 team in Olympic qualification matches."

They make it sound like Dunfield had a choice to play with the Olympic team this month. He didn't of course.

Exactly, with no FIFA muscle, the CSA might have politely asked but knowing full well what the answer would be. I'm sure Terry or spin-doctors (either his agent or with the club) can make a PR gain by lauding how he "chose" club. Good way to endear oneself to the fans.

Probably right. Same words, different meanings, truths a little foggy all for Terry's sake.

By the way, I think there may be some truth to all of this. Largely for two reasons.

1). Exactly the sort of place Portsmouth would be looking for players. Snatch a diamond-in-the-rough on the cheap. Seriously.

2). Portsmouth suck.
