So we're getting a fanzone - that's good news (as long as coopers field / bute park is thoroughly cleaned up afterwards!). They'll have to get a shift on though - talk about last minute.com!

Surely a good thing for fans (In our neck of the woods) not going to France to have a location to get a feel for the atmosphere of these massive games for Wales. Mind you if we start off well they may have to have 'fanzone 2' as 6,000 isn't massive?

I read somewhere that the Wales Football Team are doing some sort of "summer soltice" event when they return home to Wales?
Anyone know if there is any truth in it. ;)

Wales 2 : 1 Slovakia

We are top of the league!!

What a game - what a day! That 2nd welsh goal may not win goal of the competition! :) but it could make a massive difference for our campaign. This game on thursday is going to be one of the biggest 'domestic' football clashes virtually ever!! and Wales go into it in a more comfortable position than England - It's going to be quite an occassion!!

I am a dyed in the wool egg chaser. However, I was really impressed by the game and the singing and general demeanour of the Welsh fans. A credit to our nation!

I'm really hoping that the atmosphere on Thursday is a friendly and positive one. England must be hoping the same way. To a certain extent it may prove that whilst theres always a number of English fans that behave disgracefully and with no respect for the host country - the vast majority are there for the same reasons as the Welsh ie to have a great time supporting their team. Unfortunately for England all the nutters from other countries see them as a target nowadays because of Englands contribution to hooliganism at these events historically.

On the other hand they are being threatened with being booted out if any more trouble - maybe we should antagonise them and we're through to the next round :lol: naah much more satisfying to win on the pitch!
