    10-0 at half time, Come On England Part 2

    Now that the dust has settled, how are all you England Rugby fans feeling now since eleven o’clock on Saturday morning? All last week the hype that was drifting across the Welsh /English border was getting so bad , that all England had to do was turn up. How wrong they were. Those of you who read my post last week will have taken notice that South Africa were not there just to make up the numbers. We were even informed that the Lord Mayor Of London had been in talks with the English Rugby Union about a Victory Parade later this week.!!!! Hilarious. It’s no disgrace to get beaten by a better team with a better coach . At the end of the day English Rugby finished as the second best team in the world. The players should also have worn their medals with pride and dignity instead of acting like immature children. I only hope that more people get off their armchairs and go to see these same players at club level, albeit in a different colour shirt. After their great efforts in the Land Of The Rising Sun, it’s the least they deserve.

    I thought the England players were stoical in defeat. The Welsh do not do stoicism, so they can't understand the meaning of the word.

    True Story.

    ....We had a nice walk,waterproofs did their job.....and most interesting when we stopped for a coffee, and elfderly lady came up to us to say hello - to the dogs.....then she started talking about the Rugby, how in the early morning she'd seen loads of folk walking up the road in front of her house, she thought they must've been going to a local Pub watch the game....and that she didnt know what the fuss was all about.....well I said "I guess it's because England are playing ?".....she continued "oh I know that, but its obvious who the winner would be, so why bother"....."who's that" I said....well, she went on, "it wont be England, cos it's all about whats fashionable....restoring the balance, whatever that is"

    The Welsh never lose a rugby match either BT, the other team might score more points, but the Welsh will have won.

    When is the Welsh team doing an open top bus tour of Wales to celebrate their loss?
