[QUOTE="Thingimubob, post: 806679, member: 20956"] Ah jesus christ mate, you don't even like football :lol: hell you even hope England lose when they play football! Why are you so actively getting behind a genuinely sh*tehouse article by a Daily Fail journalist who's clearly salty because of that Welsh celebration video after England vs Iceland? You ask those lads if they're English or Welsh, and I honestly cannot see them saying they're English! You can clearly see what it means to them to play for Wales, not just in this tournament but all through the last 6 - 8 years they've been part of the Welsh set up. 2 out of the 3 scorers from Friday played u21s football for Wales (Hal played u19s and 20's for England admittedly, but he's been in the Welsh set up for 6+ years), and the third (Ashley Williams) was spotted playing for Stockport County in 2008 (somewhere I severely doubt the English selectors were looking!), and has played in Wales for Swansea City ever since. Reason we've done so well is the team, and the tactics. Simple as that. It does make me laugh how we've gone from being labelled as a "one man team" (a man England apparently tried to poach too) with no hope at the start of the tournament, to only being good because of our English players now that we're in the semi finals...
