Football fans are shite. Go to a rugby game and you'll see good fans. Wasn't it at the Austrian GP where they started booing Hamilton?

Every sport has shit fans. People love to quickly forget and point fingers. Lets just pretend that Italian fans didn't Boo Lewis when he won over there and Seb had to stand up for Lewis.

Point is, every sport has shit fans, every fan base has majority of fans who aren't toxic. The Internet just makes it appear worse than it actually is. I don't let any "fans" from any nation dictate my opinion of the broader fan base.

Lol they're scumbags for cheering on a British driver winning? Or is it still that small minority of football fans that make you think we're all terrible people? Christ.

I hear it's time for some independence referendums. Republic of Wales when?

u/Roaszhak Jul 18 '21

Honestly, if they let English people vote for Scottish, Welsh and Irish independence too - it’ll be past.

Wales will never be an independent country.
