Dont think so, Nor is eating English Muffins, Drinking English Tea or having a tree with English Elm Disease in your back garden. Sure that you actually have to be.....erm....English.
You may want to have a look at perhaps....Team Sweden
lol, I can arrange Black market Muffins if you like...for you only a pound a piece. I understand how harsh muffin depravation is. Perhaps we can use the EU rulings to determine whether we are indeed impinging ion some treaty by keeping Team England for English people and then forward all other teams within the EU muffins in recompense for impinging on their Human Rights.
I have no chin, my name is Nigel, I drive a 4 X 4, I oppress most minority nations, have a rampant superiority complex and have had my spine surgically removed - surely I must qualify?

You absolutely do qualify, so why do you have that ridiculous flag? Change it to a white dragon and you're in!
I travelled around the UK and Ireland for 24 days last May. Absolutely loved it, even the driving --- only got rained on once, in Bath! Had fun shopping at the London Chess Centre. St Davids, St Briavels, Iona, and Shrewsbury were particular favorites. FWIW, I say let Beast719 keep the Red Dragon --- it's a lovely flag. 
Wishing Team England all the best.
P.S. I prefer the English Opening, too.
