There's a fair bit of ABE from both sets of fans (though nowhere near the same level as the Scots). I think I'm marginally pro-Wales, for no particular reason that I can think of.

Thanks but I'm well aware of what accidental Partridge is, just wondering why you think my comment qualified.

It's true to say that the Welsh don't like the English, especially when it comes to Football and Rugby, but then neither do the Irish or Scots. I've lived in Wales for quite a while now and whilst match days can get a bit "partisan" generally they are alright. Knobheads will always be knobheads and look for an excuse for a row whatever the nationality.
I'm going tonight, I'll be supporting Wales and hoping that Duffy has a great game individually.
I'll give you a wave, we're behind the goal.

Because you said you weren't partisan and then came out with a completely partisan comment in the same sentence.
For God's sake man. You couldn't get more Alan.

Ah, gotcha! Partisan is the wrong word then.

He knows all about scoring goals in that stadium - he scored two own goals there just before we signed him.

Actually on the basis they might stick him up front at the end if they get desperate for a goal I think that’s worth a punt!

It may well depend on the sport. Mr K is sat on the sofa cheering on his countrymen again the Irish, but when England play (football), he displays no real feeling on the matter unless they're playing Wales of course. He often says he's quite happy to see England do well, and can't understand why they don't.
Stick the egg-chasing on, however, and it's a different story. I tend to leave the house when it's England against the daffodil-wagglers in the rugby, as he becomes suddenly unbearable. Luckily, we've won the last couple of encounters I think, so I've had the upper hand
I haven't told him I'm rooting for Big Shane tonight. More so since Wales brought on Joniesta, who mysteriously still seems to be legally a Crystal Palace player, and not a Real Madrid one.
Looks like they might not need that now. 1-0 to the Irish.........................

How's Mr K feeling now?

A bit deflated, but pinning all his hopes on Woodburn.

Frankly, any international side led by Hal Robson-Kanu up front, deserves all the failures they get.

If Ireland do this I will actively seek out the plastic Taffy's in our office and insist on talking about football.

Two goals needed for Wales now, thanks to Croatia winning in Ukraine.
They don't look like scoring all night (then again Ireland didn't until they conjured that McLean effort).

Jonny Williams is playing like a footballer who can't get into a piss poor Palace side.
It's a shame to see his much-touted career fading into mediocrity, isn't it?
