Pretty much sums it up I think.

Did I get it right?
I was looking forward to your response. Wales is a great country full of mad bastards. Shit at sport though. Except singing.
It explains a lot actually. According to St. Patrick he was up a hill with his sheep (he was, after all, a shepherd for many years). Anyway, he ambiguously describes a terrible temptation that fell upon him when he was up there. Scholars have debated what this temptation may have been for many years. When you factor in the Welshness though, I think the answer is clear....
I've always liked you Dave, but the mighty sports of rugby and boxing must have slipped your mind when you typed that post mate. Basically any sport where the warrior instinct can come to the fore and you can rely on Wales being amongst the world leaders.
Where was the warrior instinct when England made you a place for their holiday homes?
How do Irishmen and South Africans get into it then ?
An Irishman of all people should know the rules by now.
A Welshman would never demean himself by posing for a picture like that.
That reminds me of something actually. Out of all the sports over here cricket is the one that has the most non born nationals in the international set up, when the players concerned were asked about this they nearly all to man responded....."It was my dream to represent Wales"
Every nation has tasted defeat at one time or another, it's how you respond that counts.
Those minor set backs have helped to instill the never take a backward step mentality that we see displayed by all Welshmen today.
Lol @ Craig Cathcart and Giggs.
Kyle Walker? Ryan Bertrand? Jack Colback? Wilshere? McEachran? Rodwell? Scott Sinclair? Matt Phillips? Nathan Redmond? Jay Rodriguez?
Walker > Cathcart
Bertrand > Rose
Wilshere > Cleverley
Sinclair > Lansbury
Any +23 player > Giggs
Kyle Walker isn't listed in Physioroom as being injured. It was only a toe injury he received anyway.....footballers these days. What the heck's going on with Wilshere?! He was only supposed to be out for a week or two near the beginning of the season, then he was set to return in January or February, then there were rumours he was going to return for the Euros, and now he's still out!
The only reason Cathcart is in, is because he's Irish. I really couldn't find anyone else who is U23 and good enough.
Yeah, sorry if I was unclear.
We'll see. I think I'll get at least 15 out of the 18.
Really?
Evans would have definitely been there had he been born in 89.
Yeah, that's why he missed Blackpool's playoff matches.

Well then. No Olympics for Cathcart.
lol wonder if that'll mean no Olympics for Butland aswell, because he ended up going to the European Championships and Pearce said that anyone who goes won't be considered in his Olympic squad. I think he should pick the players that didn't get playing though like Martin Kelly, Phil Jones, and Butland.
If I remember correctly Thailand (Siam) never have (though occupied).
Butland will be picked according to the papers.
Think you might be wrong here Dave
