British Lions

[William Treseder]

I'm firmly Welsh before British but do generally want Team GB to do well at the Olympics but didn't support the football team at all, as you say, it felt very contrived. I do support the British and Irish Lions though, although finding myself less engaged this time due to the lack of Welshmen.

Weirdly, despite usually wanting England to lose every competition they're in I do support the cricket team.

Happy to do a Q&A on my complicated supporting habits on Zoom if anybody's interested

I’d imagine most of us have “strange” supporting habits.
As you say, I always consider myself Welsh before British, and support all Welsh sporting teams and individuals.
What has always irked me though, is although we are a sporting nation, we have always had to rely on England in football and cricket.
As much as it may hurt to admit it, Welsh football and Welsh cricket would collapse if we went it alone.
