Celtic game - strict security measures announced (page 34)

[Ban-jani]

I've had folk tell me my name is quintessentially English. It isn't. My forename is Hebrew and my surname is Welsh. Not many know I am Welsh originally but, before talking for the first time, I've had English people approach me for a chat purely because my Wales shirt interested them.

Welsh nationalism does exist. I know Welsh people who switch from speaking English to their mother tongue when outsiders are around purely so they can't understand what is being said.

A woman on my team at work's husband is Welsh and I've been introduced to him and his mates whilst they were out in Manchester. They all have a real dislike for the English, especially the football side and it's fans.

Can someone clean this fucking thread up?

Half of it about racism and xenophobia, having to trawl through pages of utter shite to see how the sale of tickets is going ffs.

my grandad is welsh from pontypridd and I've got other family from the rhonda. from my experience welsh people dont hate enlgish people at all. they are some of the most welcoming people. there is welsh nationalism buts that can be applied to england swell.

Lot's of shit on here, and I can't be done with the 'I don't like the Welsh, French or double bloody dutch' for all I care.

You take people as you find them.

I've been all over the world, and peeps are universally friendly and welcoming, as I am when I meet visitors to our city.

Some keyboard warriors ought to get out more and experience the real world we live in.

Jeez, a country with how many million people living in it, and they don't like a single, solitary person living there?

Do me a favour.

Yeah I think you need to read that particular post again. As far as I'm aware no one has said they don't like a nationality.

It's nearly sold out.

How can anybody dislike the Irish when there's Welshers about!

Don't you live in Leeds? If the football fans are representative of the locals in general then it must be a laugh a minute.

Cardiff was great for Wales v Georgia. Good experience.

I know students or professionals in Manchester who only made friends with outsiders because locals don't want to know them.

I had the same experience in London. It's tribal wherever you go but have personally found Welsh football fans to be top notch. England behaved like ****s in France.

I am glad you enjoyed Wales v Georgia. Doing well for a rugby place. A bit like how I see Leeds.
