Welsh football fans say they are at risk from being overwhelmed by a tidal wave of patronising English coverage of their first men's football World Cup finals campaign since Tom Jones was a boyo.
One Ingurland fan lit a firework inappropriately before noting 'My favourite other UK home nations team to support is the Republic of Ireland. Somehow I also feel comfortable doing the accent. To be sure, begorra. Or is that Northern Ireland? Are they the same? When Ingurland play in Belfast, using British national anthem is totally fine.'
'Anyway after Ingurland have easily won our World Cup - beating the Krauts and/or the Argies 9-0 along the way - we will set free any migrant workers in Qatar still alive, so that we can be furious at the same people when they try to cross the Channel in a dinghy.'

After weeks of disappointedly saying "Oh, it's just birds" whenever he turned on the TV and saw the England women's team playing, football fan Dave Concrete has grudgingly admitted that the women's game might be the real thing after all.
This change of heart is thought to have come when he realised the England women's team were doing rather well, and were in fact more likely than their male counterparts to win a tournament anytime soon.
However, this newfound respect for the women's team doesn't seem to have translated into knowing anything about them, as Concrete remarked that he "really liked the blonde one with the ponytail... no not her, the other one... hang on, are we the ones in white?"
However, the female referees at the tournament have come in for criticism for their habit of giving out red cards and responding to player protests by turning away, arms folded, and saying "Well if you don't know what you did, I'm certainly not gonna tell you."
