Wales Team up to 3rd in World!

I can’t understand that one bit. So if we had won the euros you wouldn’t be happy if we had too many plaudits?

No, I'd be delighted if Welsh football was given anywhere near the plaudits the egg chasers get. As it is they don't. Football, despite being watched and played by more people in Wales than rugby, always has to play second fiddle in a biased, egg-orientated media. I despise Welsh rugby, not the sport itself. Anything that leads to its death and destruction would be fine by me.

Seems odd to me, why do people get so jealous of the wru having more coverage in the local rag? Should the blues fans kick up a fuss because Wales online are banging on more about Cardiff city than them? Anyone who wouldn't want Wales to succeed at anything isn't a true Welshman/Welsh women imo. I don't like netball or many other sports but I want my country to win everything

The hatred of rugby on here is truly pathetic. You never come across such venom from the rugby community about football in Wales.

I love sport, I love Welsh sport. The attitudes of many are pathetic, to be honest.

Many rugger fans are scathing about football, often referring to it as wendyball and dismissing it as a poofs game. When I was younger and a bit more naive I once wore a Wales football top to a Wales v All blacks game and I had more than the odd comment, some quite abusive. It was a real eye opener.

Totally agree, I always want Wales to win, whatever the sport and enjoy watching rugby union as well as football. It is allowed to like and support both sports!
