Re: Well done England
Now how did I guess there would be negative comments about Wales' game tomorrow. I'm all for a bit of rivalry but surely you should be supporting a home nation to win - England played so well today I couldn't hand on heart wish for the All Blacks to make a comeback - they didn't deserve it. I'm hoping for an England v Wales final and then I will of course support my own country

Re: Well done England
Good game . . . . . Good Game.
Not sure that VAR had a good game though.

Re: Well done England
I feel sure in all of the Welsh pubs the Taffs would have been cheering England on. 
I was once in a pub in Betws y Coed when England were playing a World Cup match so I have experienced their love at first hand.

I was in Cardiff today having some mother and daughter time and the place was buzzing with the rugby.

Re: Well done England
I was actually born in Porth so would always support Wales except if they was playing England which is where I have lived since 18 months old.
Torn?
Nah!
I'd love Wales to get through to the final. What a great occasion.

Re: Well done England
Had some great times in St Brides and along that Pembrokeshire coast and Tescos in Haverfordwest which restored my damaged faith in the Welsh so I admit I am torn. I will be happy for my Welsh friends but for those in that pub in Betws y Coed it's a &*$£%* from me!!!Jan Rosser wrote: 26 Oct 2019, 19:45Betws-y-Coed is not the valleys though Foxyoldbluefox wrote: 26 Oct 2019, 18:35I feel sure in all of the Welsh pubs the Taffs would have been cheering England on.

Commiserations to Wales in a closely fought match. England vs South Africa it is then.

Re: Well done England
Thanks Foxy - agony to watch for the real diehards and I know great disappointment. Such a shame Warren Gatland couldn't go out having reached a World Cup final and truthfully I am not a fan of Eddie Jones - he just has an attitude I don't likeoldbluefox wrote: 27 Oct 2019, 10:54Commiserations to Wales in a closely fought match.

Re: Well done England
Jan, I wish more of your country persons were like you. This applies equally to the Scots who perpetuate the 'anybody but England' philosophy. We should support each other as home nations.........except when we are playing each other.

Re: Well done England
Such a shame, it would have been a great match. But in truth Wales didn’t play so well in the first half.
Good luck to England now then.

Sorry Wales. Would have made a great final. And I'm not even a sports fan.

Re: Well done England
It seemed to me that the Welsh players were more interested in grabbing each other's bums rather than playing rugby.
Anyway it bacon butties at my house next Saturday if anyone is interested?

Did anyone see the little fly half (?) squaring up to that great big Welsh fella?
