Do you care who wins tomorrow? 09:19 - Feb 5 with 15083 viewsNOTRAC

Seven pages in the sports part of today's Western Mail, and most of the front page taken up by the news that the Millenium roof is going to be closed, rugby mania time has started once more.
And if Wales is successful in winning the match against England the paper will have to double in size to contain all the hysterics.
We will be told on the Welsh media that Wales and rugby are synonymous.How Wales first became a nation when it defeated the All Blacks in 1905.and how our success on the rugby field justifies our claims for independence ,particularly if we beat England.
Well I suppose I must be regarded as very odd.For I personally couldn't care less if Wales win tomorrow.I won't even watch it .
I personally hate rugby and the crap that goes with it.
In fact I couldn't care less whether Wales won or not.
I wonder if there's anyone else who feels the same?

I don't really care. I would prefer Wales to win so that those who think I must care simply because I'm Welsh have nothing to say on the subject.

I grew up playing and enjoying both sports in the 70s / 80s. Also going along tomorrow evening and should be a great game. Start of RWC year as well, so going to be interesting how the result goes for the meeting in Twickenham in September.

The Swans are playing on Saturday, so can enjoy both events !

C'mon Bony shoot !!!!

Agree whole heartily with Notrac although I will be watching hoping for a late England penalty to win the match. The great irony of English rugby is that they play without a large number of potentially fantastic English players not even playing Rugby Union but Rugby League,just imagine how good England could be if those hard men from the North were playing Union.

Sums it up for me

Like Wales to win but Swansea winning has far greater importance. (That goes for football as well as egg)

Doesn't have to be one or the other does it? Rugby is part of Welsh historical culture and something that grew from our proud working class core, so I'd find it hard to just dismiss out of hand as. at my own core, I have a welsh heart and soul. So yeah, I want Wales to win, and I want the Swans to win and, whatever I might say as a wum on here I want the welsh football team to win too.

I do, however, want the Swans to win more, because at the core of my welsh core, I'm umbilically tied to my ugly lovely town, and will always be Swansea first and foremost..

Don't give a sh1t about rugby there's no passion in it anymore, football will blow it out of business in years to come. In fact I want England to win just so that there won't be as many rugby idiots in town on weekend

I want Wales to win and I'm English! I spent 4 years near Twickenham and had a belly full of the Range Rover driving, Barbour wearing, shooting stick sitting, snobby English RU types. As Dar would say "fcuk em"!

Yeh, right; a bit like Sam Burgess ;)

They're completely different sports these days. The RL guys are extremely fi, excellent athletes and very good with offloads, but they just don't get the technical skills related to RU forward play and don't get me started with the rules around the breakdown !

England have enough of an advantage in numbers of players and finance to be able to dominate the RU game; but don't seem to get there most of the time ;)

If Wales were playing an international snooker match, even though I don't watch, play or like it - I'd still want them to win.......because I'm Welsh see.
So come tomorrow I'll be shouting " COME ON WALES" as loud a f*ck

I am so detached from rugby, I didn't even know it was on!

Six nations time again eh? Sorry no interest at all, to the point that I have no knowledge of the history of it either, I must be even more disinterested than NOTRAC! He knew how we became a nation, I had not a clue!

But for all of you that do enjoy it, I hope it's a great game and you all have a brilliant time!

Each to their own I say!

Every six nations ,we get this unmitigated crap.

After our games Ive seen personally pubs full of Swans fans cheering on Wales, their country.

So people, Welsh people, aren't arsed or worse and want England to win just because they hate rugby.

Well only in Wales could you find that attitude..

Im not keen on many sports but I want my country to win every time,.

Yes. Wales all the way.

I find it beyond comprehension how people can "hate" a game. In almost every walk of life we play a distant second to everything English. In football terms we are even further behind. For a bunch of opinionated computer athletes I thought you would have jumped at the chance to get on the bandwagon of a sport where we punch far above our weight and frequently humble our far larger, far better financed neighbouring masters.

To be fair the atmosphere in the Globe when wales thrashed sh1t out of them last time was like a swans game in a pub. This was after we'd tamely surrendered to Arsenal beforehand I think. And it was packed out.

and mony, some on here would suggest the hate the game or not interested or even more staggeringly not know its even on..
So we do have a Welshman presumably admitting he wants to see England win, because its "EGG"
Funnily enough RU on Wirral is hardly the same as Home County Sarry/Wasps/QUINS bollux, and less "middle class " than many would think. Its seen a s a fookn tough game where they deserve all they get.

No hope for me as I love the RL too and that s starting soon.

Actually it was forced on the Welsh by landowners from the Bristol/Gloucester area.

Ah, the first of the hideous i don't like rugby, hope Wales lose threads.

How very original and controversial.

I want a mate like Flashberryjacks, who wears a Barnsley jersey with "Swans are my second team" on the back.

My wife would say, shouldn't that be the case with all sport, after all it is....sport. She normally adds 'you emotionally stunted prat' when I am either euphoric or grumpy when swans win/lose.

She's right again, isn't she?
