Who was there that day?

The noise when we score (both times) is unreal.
I really loved Welsh football back when I was in school, never missed a home friendly or qualifier back then, and we had a decent squad, who were doing well under Hughes (until the final few games)

Now, although we have the makings of a fantastic new, young squad, I just can't motivate myself, I don't feel the excitement like when I used to go. I still get it for every City game, just not Wales.
I'll still make the effort when I can get to a game, but it isn't on the priority list.

Anyone else feel like that?
Or is everyone excited at the prospect of the Euro quals?

Saw my first CCFC game in 1968, and my first Wales game in 1970, (Home Internationals, v England at Ninian Park, 1-1).

Over the years, supporting club and country have been remarkably similar. Some great games, but more disappointments. Still enjoy games involving both. Trick is, not to get too excited, or too despondent. Just enjoy the games.

I was there too, it was brilliant. But after getting twelve points from the first four games in the group, we got one point, (1-1 home to Finland), in the last four. That's how frustrating supporting Wales is. The play-off against Russia was worse still. Always enjoy going to the games, though. Looking forward to the Euro qualifiers. Best chance we've got of qualifying since, well, the last time!

Nice day :thumbright:

We had a pretty decent team then but....
We had a shitty manager then who fucked it up in the end.

Now we have a shitty manager too. I love being Welsh :lol:
