Fifa 13 - Where in the hell is the Welsh national team ?

Thu Apr 04, 2013 5:39 pm

I just bought Fifa 13 for the Xbox and love it ( although I am struggling playing at Semi-Pro level right now lol ). But I noticed when flipping through all the home nations of the UK, Wales is the only country not to feature. You have N.Ireland and Scotland, and a load of countrys that are ranked well below Wales, so why are Wales not in the game ?

I did a bit of reading on Google to see what was the reasons, and I could only find an article from Walesonline that talked about Wales not featuring in Fifa 12. Supposdely EA Games have to deal with every football association that represents each country in the game for market and licence purposes. It said EA would consider Wales to feature in Fifa 13, but they are not in the game again which has pissed me off. Is there any chance Wales will be put in with an update or something ? I just don't get how Wales are not in it, when a lot of worse teams than Wales are.

Any ideas guys ?

PS.. Here is the link for the walesonline Fifa 12 article regarding Wales not being in Fifa 12.

I'd love, honestly love, a middle management job in the FAW. Must be piss easy, no accountability, no goals, probably a company car etc.
