The Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland have been put in Path B , while Scotland have Serbia , Norway and one of Bulgaria , Israel , Hungary or Romania in Path C - meanwhile the whole of England will be nervously watching who comes through from Path A as a country with a population of just over 360,000 put them out of Euro 2016 , could Iceland do it again , surely not , I mean they've only just got about enough men to form a football team yet they beat a country tipped to win every competition they enter !!

Could it be Two Euros and Two Cod Wars , you could cut the tension with a knife.......





Sorry , I don't know what came over me , we don't get through to too many competitions you see .

I've never understood this level of hatred for the England national team from the Welsh, especially when you consider how many of them are more than happy to work in England and play alongside England internationals.

It's weird.

Being honest I thought it was VERY embarrassing and I said so at the time , but we don't know what goes on between players on the pitch , the wind-ups , baiting etc , anyway I thought it unnecessary but it seems it hit a nerve and like the elephants you are you can't forget - we're all West Ham until our respective countries play then we go all partisan . :)

If you had been conquered by a foreign nation, your language banned and your people considered 2nd class?

I support Wales. It's many of the English fans and also the media for me.

England had over a hundred arrested in the Netherlands and there were riots in Prague. I did Hungary and Slovakia away in the qualifiers and there wasn't a hint of trouble. I think we had one arrested in France in 2016 (there were tens of thousands of Welsh there) and nothing since. It's a divided country too. Lots of Welsh people don't like Cardiff, the North Walians can be a bit elitist (my Welsh is terrible), Cardiff / Swansea is a huge rivalry... but nothing.

I'm only doing Italy in Rome this summer. Two nights in Turin, two in Rome and then back via Berlin!
