I don't understand your issue for that.

Surely if they're considered welsh enough to ply for Wales they're welsh enough to be the Captain.

Otherwise you have a sort of two tier system where Welsh borns have more rights in the team than those that are only here through citizenship or parents. Wouldn't be good for the team.

The lead of a national team should be from that nation IMO. The lead of a country not the leader from another country just over the bridge but who has family near.

If they play they play, I don't agree but it's the way it's going. A foreign manager I could even accept but the leader of Wales had to be welsh surely??

my issue isn't with him being english or a Jack but the simple fact is he's a pile of shit if I was manager he wouldn't even make the squad and considering how shit our squad is that proves how shit I think he is.If collins wasn't banned I'd have him as captain.

Williams og is s**t. I agree I would not even consider him for the team.
He is a liablity, fat, slow, and always going backwards. Long may he play for the jerks.
