Don't let us fool ouselves: Cymru/Wales; Kernow/Cornwall; and Breizh/Brittany are respectively living remnants of the Brythonic Celtic kingdoms that couldn't come together, a people without a state, one of whom is perhaps the only self-styled nation in the world whose nationality is defined by its sports associations. As Edward Vlll famously once said "something must be done"; as someone else said "you can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time." I beg to differ; dress a Welshman in red, give him a ticket to a match and he's easily deluded into believing that he's supporting his country. Naivety is not latin it's Welsh.
