Yeah we’re all British so it’s all good 🤔, I take it you’ve noticed how the vast majority of English folk act at home and abroad eh 🙈?

 

 

Only a minority do the whole ‘Bulldog’ crap abroad in my experience.  The ‘lager lout lad’ is not the picture that accurately reflects the English abroad in my opinion.  This thread is not about them though it is a ‘Welsh thread’.  Going back to the English though and like it or not they are not in the grand scheme of things an insignificant country.  They have given the world so so much (like the Scots) like it or not.  Music, science, entertainment, medicine, technology etc etc, they are kind of entitled to walk with a swagger.  Wales have given the world jack shit in comparison. But if you are leading to ‘do I find them annoying’ then hell yeah.  Most people and ‘peoples’ annoy me.  England are the big boys however on these islands, I don’t like that but that is how it is. I literally get the fear every 2 years when the Welsh come up in their thousands for the rugby.  It is ****ing torture. You can’t possibly say that when the English come calling it is even on the same planet of annoyingness.  A couple of hooray Henry’s but they are not ‘look at me look at me’.

I've always despised Bale.  My mates never got my ire when he was golden smiley boy banging in the goals for Spurs, but all I saw was a diving, squealing cheat (a talented one, but still a cheat).  Hated the way he played the game.  Touched by a feather and literally squealing - 14 stone of finely tuned muscle.  Fud.

 

He was even at it when they battered us at Tynie.  They're absolutely smashing us and he's rolling around trying to get fouls and people booked.

 

IT was never really highlighted cos he smiles and he's British and all that, so if anything maybe picked up bad habits from foreigners I guess was the feeling?

 

Someone I think now gets away with it is another Spurs player - Son.  Every time I see him play, he dives.  Again, maybe positive discrimination here, but cos he's Asian and, again, smiley, it never seems highlighted compared to maybe if a latin player was doing it.

Yes just won 4 champions leagues including scoring winners in finals, scored 100s of goals, all while taking pelters from your own shite bag fans and manager for signing a contract which the CLUB offered him. What a mercenary.

 

Here in Scotland we salute Gareth Bale terrific player, winner. Hope to see him turn pro. 

 

Champions League Final, scores, "are you happy here" no hopefully I can go in the summer" 

 

Oh yes terrific pro, Bale strikes me now as tough to manage and money driven

Great player no question but to put it simply, he wanted to be top boy at Madrid while Ronaldo was still there. Was never going to happen, Ronaldo left and Bale still couldn't be that person.

I’ve never met any Welsh football fans or players, that’s what this thread is about, I don’t care much for any rugby fans to be honest.

I don’t think the Welsh are any worse than the English, or our own bunch of ******s in the Tartan Army. Scotland should be proud of what its gave to the world, compared to other bigger countries, and not base its national confidence on the performances of its sports people.

Deli Ali, Rose and Kane are even worse but nobody calls them out on it. Maddison, Vardy, Sterling, Rashford, Lingaard also get away with it without criticism. Niasse, Lanzini and Gayle the only three down there ever neem banned for it. I think Miko and one other player are the only two ever banned in European or International football for doing so. Walker and a Celtic player the only two I can think of up here too.

Think people are forgetting how shite Real have treated him. Even a few seasons ago, he was getting booed by fans for no real reason other than they thought he wasn't playing very well. Since then, the club have done everything to try and drive him out.

 

Not much of a fan of him at all, but on his day he is a cracking player and the way he's been treated is ridiculous. **** them.

Real Madrid are a horrible football club with the most awful fans.

White flags out they are like the gladiator fans of the  present day

I have no issue with that. Bale is giving Madrid the 2 fingers. He is a spoilt brat.

Why doesn’t he take a pay cut and leave then, the soft *****.

 

He will in January, I think that’s the plan to get them to sell.

I hear that's Gloucestershire Tourist Board's motto.

Mainly a rugby thing. I cheer on any team who plays them and want them to fail at all sport. I would even wear an England top when they play them (may not be true). I have never known a people from such an insignificant country (in the grand scheme of things) have so much self worth. I find them very 'look at me I am Welsh' and that irritates me. That been said they are part of Britain so there is no hatred. They just annoy the **** out of me.

 

Yes, they are good at rugby but WHO GIVES A ****?They walk about throwing their Welshness at anyone who gets in their way. Don't get me wrong the Scots are bad for it but **** me the Welsh are even worse than the Irish for it.

 

I realised in my late teens after taking Scotland tops on every holiday that outside of this country no-one gives a **** that I am Scottish. Someone forgot to tell the Welsh.

:rofl:

 

Coming from you that is ******* brilliant. 

 

i8 railing and generalizing AGAIN about a group of people. What a miserable existence.

If your only experience of Welshies is seeing a bunch of them on tour for a sporting event, then of course they're going to be playing their Welshness up and trying to give it a bit of swagger. The same happens when Scots assemble in Trafalgar Square with Fairy Liquid for the fountains - pretending they know what soap is for - or the Irish get together for anything, insisting on having a pint of Guinness and then criticising it because it's been made in feckin' Spain.

 

The Welsh are no better or no worse than any other of the home countries.

 

You just enjoy being racist and getting away with it.

Although not disputing his ability, I dislike Bale for his cloak of willful ignorance that he wears like a badge of honor.

 

Many of his peers who’ve amassed fortunes try to give something back. Bale spends his time sitting on his gilded arse and pissing off his employers.

 

Each to their own, I suppose.

I think you're thinking of Atletico Madrid, or Atletico Aviacion as they were in Franco's day, the team of his air force.

 

Failing that it must be a Barcelona.  A team which awarded Franco 3 (Three) medals during his lifetime.  Only in the last few months did they decide to revoke them.  Real Madrid haven't revoked their medals because, well, they never gave him any in the first place.

 

Just you carry on believing the lies and propaganda though.

He tried to get a move away in the Summer but their president set a price tag that nobody was willing pay (IMO this was the plan) so he didn’t move on.

 

Im no great fan of Bale but the way he’s been treated by Zidane and the Madrid fans is utterly ridiculous. Boo’d every week, publicly slated for nothing and yet he still turns out a shift whenever asked and has played a very important part in their CL success. He deserves better.

Nope, definitely Real Madrid. Their stadiums named after another fascist, Franco’s pal, Santiago Bernabéu.

All I said was they irritate me and I find them annoying.  There will not be one poster on here who does not have a mirrored irrational feeling about a certain group of people.  They may post on here that they don’t but they would be lying.  There was a thread in the shed a while back along the lines of what nationalities do you hate or something.  Was a good thread.
