I consider myself English but have French blood, my wife is Welsh.... I suspect you can imaging the tension late this afternoon 
Triple crown potential  ........ not after the Italy game 
Anyway I have to say the Welsh fully deserved the win, fantastic tactics , great to watch, I know it was played at The Millennium Stadium, but I had it been at Twickenham , Wales would still have won 
Its always a fantastic tournament, hats off to the Welsh today
Dave

I was going to point this out, but if you want to be really pedantic it's VI not V1...
The Welsh boys are going to be absolutely insufferable at work this week...  |

You mean you are from Deva....Chester City FC play at the Deva Stadium.
Any town or city ending in Chester is Roman.
York was Eboratum....hence the horse race the Ebor handicap.

Is that not the cause of a severe knuckle rapping if not permanent banning from the forum?

direct mention of the F word is indeed frowned upon around these parts, I hereby ban myself

I thought it was "soccer" that was the hanging offence not Rugby (obviously both are called football)..
I have only got into Rugby in the last few years, when my son started playing.. in his second game there was a stoppage (that didn't involve my son) but I saw the oppositions coach on the field talking to my lad on the way home I asked him what the opositions coach had said...amazingly it was advice and tips on how too scrum ...having spent the 2 previous years watching my lad play soccer with all the abuse that both parents and players gave to officials , opposition and other parents, it was really refreshing
Rick you will have all this to come....in a few years time just write off Sundays as you will be going to a game of some sorts somewhere

Sorry all you English non-Rugby fans, we won't mention it again, but you cannot be Welsh and not have enjoyed that game.
At least, not till next year, when we'll do it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
