Re: Wales vs Portugal Euro 2016 Semi Final .
Portugal shouldn't have even got this far...still not a win in 90 mins. Pathetic
would love to see the smug look rubbed off Ronaldos face by Bale
Wales v france for the final
france to win though

I'm hearing Jonny Williams will replace Ramsey and our very own James Collins will replace Ben Davies .DaveWHU1964 wrote:Portugal don't look too scary to me.

Ramsey was very unlucky to be given a yellow for what looked like a ball to hand incident , can the Welsh appeal or doresn't it work like that in the Euro .

Re: Wales vs Portugal Euro 2016 Semi Final .
Having gone to uni in Wales it it a country dear to my heart and always want the best for them. Except at sport. Mainly because they were the sorest of losers (didn't happen much at Rugby) and the worst of winners. Therefore I hope Portugal put 7 past them, Bale has a meltdown and gets sent off and Ginge is kept on the bench out of harms way

For any English who want to join in that (rather beautiful) Welsh Anthem on Wednesday, this might help.
My hen laid a haddock on top of a tree
Glad barks and centurions throw dogs in the sea.
I could stew a hare here and brandish Dan's flan
Don's ruddy bogs blocked up with sand.
Dad! Dad! Why don't you oil Aunty Glad?
When oars appear on beer bottle pies
Oh butter the hens as they fly.

No I get it, but however you feel towards Wales it has to be better than this 3rd place Portugal side making the final, they shouldn't be there, Wales should.

I agree with that, it was the shitty winning that wound me up, second only to Aussies in the crowing stakesJumby wrote:Show me a good loser and you're showing me a loser.

I was trying to teach my son ' Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau ' the other day - We discovered that English people can't get their tongues around certain Welsh vowels let alone words - ' Nhadau ' was coming out as ' Nhadal ' and no amount of repetition seemed to work - this is a boy who can sing the Russian National Anthem but Welsh was beyond him .
' He used to laugh at me when I tried to learn Welsh as well ' joined in his Mum in defence of her little boy .
These English always stick together .

Re: Wales vs Portugal Euro 2016 Semi Final .
i don't think portugal have been that bad, ironically they're missing their best player, but if he finds his shooting boots again, they definitely have enough to beat wales. and get crushed in the final.

Re: Wales vs Portugal Euro 2016 Semi Final .
Lived in Wales for 8 years and been following the national team in that time.
Always thought they were an international equivalent of West Ham - in when you expect them to lose they win, and vice versa.
Therefore, nervous about the confidence people now showing in Wales, and worried it's tempting fate.
That said, really hope Ginge gets a game, scores from a corner and we see a brilliant individual goal from Bale - and go on to beat the Germans in the final.

Would love Wales to win the whole thing, and that's nothing to do with the 80/1 bet I had on them pre-tournament...

Not sure ' Denbigh ' has a lot of love for us , Dave , he's an English lad living in Wales .DaveWHU1964 wrote:Enjoy it tomorrow Pete, Denbigh, Jumby and co.

Anyway , you have a Welsh Connection through your Aunt so you're an Honorary Welshman in my eyes .
I have a lot of trouble with nerves watching these type of games , my heartbeat gets far too high , I'm not sure how much of it I'll be able to watch - they'll have to be winning 3-0 for me to relax .
They've done Britain proud to get this far , if they get to the Final it would be as amazing as Leicester winning the Premiership .
Cymru Am Byth !!

We'd have a chance against France - the Germans would be too good for us - but after Belgium and with a full team I don't fear anyone .
Bring it on !
