There appears to be no pride and no fight in a lot of you.
A lot of you are ruled by FEAR and the thought that the worst will happen unless you do as you are told.
Perhaps this is installed in the welsh psyche after being ruled by the English for so long?

It's funny. You spend years fighting to get out of English rule but Germany turn up and you vote for it.
Strange people the Oirish.

There is no such thing as a "national characteristic" for a start.

Okay fine
Essentially, there is no such thing as a "national characteristic" as that would just be a blatant stereotype/generalisation. People vary in their personalities and characteristics regardless of national identity. (Danny Dyer and Stephen Fry? Bill Gates and Mike Tyson?) So that is a fallacy to begin with.
Secondly, to suggest that the Welsh are inherently subservient is historically naive and inaccurate as there have been many examples of Welsh defiance. It's all dependent on the specific situation, in this instance for example, many fans are willing to accept the proposed changes for finacial stability (hence the lack of protest).
I'd take it as banter though

I find the majority of South Walians a fearful race.
Always scared of the future after the Thatcher war.
They have to see a picture because they are scared of the dark and uncertainty.
Perhaps they don't have the confidence to map their own destiny?

Should schools stop teaching and analysing mongolian culture and crusades because gengis khans cousin was a pacifist? The analogy you used makes no sense. We all diffa, so?
After your first paragraph i didnt bother reading the rest.
