To think that Wales were bloody fantastic today

[carben]

And to feel really really proud. Especially if England lose on St Patricks day to Ireland!!

Yanbu.

Fantastic whether they were bf or not

Still best MN comment of the day

Yay!!

YABU for your second sentence which is irrelevant to the fantastic Wales performance

YABU. I'm Welsh and English. Your follow up sentence was stupid.

Disagree - I think that England's performance always adds a certain something to the welsh psyche even on a Grand Slam Saturday ! History , geography who knows but every welsh man or woman will know what I mean !

YANBU ref Wales winning fan - bloody - tastic

However, YABU with your second sentance (btw I'm Welsh and proud of it. I don't care about any other team!!)

I am a Welsh woman, and I still know your second sentence was stupid. Most mature Welsh people won't agree with you I suspect.

I'm Welsh and will be supporting Ireland over England in the next game, and hope they win on Paddy's day. What's wrong with that?

I must care coz I'm bloody watching it. Even with Gaby, Sonia and Lawrence pissing me off. I love Keith so he's OK.

Glad Wales won, want England to win too

oooh I've got a bit of a thing for Lawrence.....

Thank you shutup - if it's the truth why not tell it how it is !

They should have lost at twickenham. But played well today.

Come on England!

YABU. I am English, with 2 welsh DCs, a welsh husband, and I've lived in Wales for 20 years. I was ecstatic that Wales won, and will be doubly happy if England win. With the exception of when they play England, I always support Wales. Why? Because I am not a petty idiot.

If you want to support Ireland, fine. But if you are doing so because you want England to lose, as opposed to wanting Ireland to win, then I think YABVU.

DH is a welshman and he doesn;'t want England to lose. But then he did marry a Saes !

Oh and im chuffed as fuck Italy beat Scotland :o

it was a great game today, i fucking love warren for not picking hook for the game

i sooo want england to lose

I thank you, Kayano ,

There's nothing wrong with wanting one team to win over another team, it's the whole attitude that you want someone to lose so badly (ie wanting them to lose no matter who they're playing). It's childish and pathetic. RedHotPokers has it bang on right.

Exactly each to his own. I live in England - have an English partner (who supports Wales ) and 2 children born in England but still have no affinity with English rugby and the way it operates. I am welsh born and bred and all my ingrained love of rugby is with them and the other Celtic nations. I admit , right or wrong , on most occasions I want England to lose !

Yes, and that's what's so sad. Your attitude is very Anyone But England.

They were amazing!

Having lived in England in the past for many years, very much part of the club rugby scene, I can't believe you are all so shocked at the 'anti-English' remarks, there's a traditional enmity that goes back through the ages!

It's mocking and part of the Celtic approach to rugby but does not lead to mass packs of rabid Welsh rugby players and fans searching out the English!! There's usually much banter on both parts over many pints of ale.

Tidy dancer - in rugby terms you're right. But just because it applies with rugby doesn't mean it extends to life in general - although admittedly Cameron is a git - l would say 'chill' and YABU.

I would hope it wouldn't apply in life in general. That would be disgraceful. I'm afraid this kind of attitude is not something to say 'chill' about though.

Sadly, I have encountered many an 'Anyone but the Welsh' attitude throughout my life - I no longer let it bother me.
