[QUOTE="RC, post: 143921"] As far as i'm concerned people can sing the anthem if they wish to do so. But to see every single boy out there singing it; to see that everyone had embraced the language that so few of us speak, that they made the effort to learn the words - hell, even mouth the syllables! - it made me very proud to witness their dedication to the team and to us a nation. It made me proud to be Welsh, when seeing all our boys sing along as one with the rest of us in a language that people often mock by saying it's made up of only constenants...no vowels. It's just something deep down inside me that felt complete on that day. They say it takes simple things to please simple minds and if that's the case then i'd chose to live as a simple mind easily pleased, than a complex mind rarely impressed any day of the week.
