The Jacks are one of us when it comes to Wales. Either get used to that or please f**k off, we don't need this division.

I know a few Swans fans who were there on Saturday and I know plenty who went to Belgium and none of them brought flags with the Swans name on it. Likewise for home games, no Swans fans in their right mind is going to go to a game in the CCS letting people know who they support.
Put the rivalry aside for the internationals, I don't really care who supports who as long as they're supporting Wales.
Together Stronger.

You get it at rugby internationals, test cricket, British lions tours, even athletics. You see it at all sports on the international stage, and like the above poster said. You see loads of flags at England matches with different clubs written down on them. In fact lots of countrys fans do it at international matches. You're proud of your club, and the area you come from and want to show it off on the world stage. I don't see the problem

What's wrong with it
Showing where they live and what country they are from
Maybe they want people to know where they have travelled from?
Honestly some people on here need to lighten up

Firstly don't think "our lot" are responsible for all trouble between wales fans as there have been many instances at all grounds around wales and in away games involving supporters of other teams.
I'm not saying it hasn't happened but there is a chance that cardiff are involved more purely down to the proportion of support wales have with a cardiff background. Not agreeing with it or condoning it.
lastly seeing the likes rhos on sea; wrexham in the north and the bigger industrial towns and cities of the south draped on St Davids or owain glyndwrs flags fills me with pride that we can come from a good distance apart with different accents and support our national team

With Wales, the Swansea ones are targeted by Cardiff fans and then threads like this are created to keep the divide going. If people want to deface the welsh flag with their club then everyone should be allowed to do it, if we cant behave - then nobody should due to the problems it creates. Together - stronger.

See your point to a degree but why should everyone who has pride in where they come from and wants to show it be not allowed to do it just because of a minority.

Even on this forum you have some idiots saying that swansea fans /flags are never seen and are somewhat proud of it. My mate who is a swansea fan displayed his welsh flag at last nights game with swansea city fc written on it yet it was torn down by people in front. As much as I dislike England, their fans at their matches have learnt that they are better as one rather than different groups spread out. Some of you need to grow up
