We did this for about 15 years, until a certain group, who could no longer get away with their hooligan antics at league games, started travelling to Wales games, sometimes spoiling the away trips with their 1970/80's ways.
The wife no longer enjoyed the trips, so Old Tony here has a saying "if you don't wanna be somewhere or do something, don't do it", so we eliminated that part of football, from our lives.
Add now, the fact that we are pensioners and I am no longer working, so even if we were to want to follow Wales wholeheartedly, we would not be able to afford it, so another Old Tony saying comes into operation, which is "Eliminate the problem, the problem being Wales"
Did I miss EURO 2016, Na, am I a plastic, Na, for the simple reason, I don't go at all. Have I commented on the game, Na, All I did, was made a reference, to those who don't normally go, getting fed up and leaving early. By the look of comments on here and elsewhere, it looks and sounds like, the extra fans took over the SHOW and spoilt the GREAT atmosphere that has been created at the CCS and reduced it to a whimper.
Na, not for me these days, didn't even watch it on the tele, apart from when the adverts were on, so just flicked over to see the score.
Just seen the team and subs and it looks like Giggs is going down the same road as TOSH, lets hope the "fans", don't crucify Giggs, like they did TOSH, for giving youth a chance.
Me, PLASTIC, Na.
