mate, it was originally about what he FELT he was and what he felt a connection to. He's Welsh , and Wales is part of Britain, therefore he's British, but what does "British" mean?
Does he feel more English, Scots or Irish than he does Italian?
I think we should move on from this, but the only people who ever protest about this "British" thing are More often than not English. I don't see Scots , Welsh and Irish being so passionate about it. I wonder why?? just curious.
The only one protesting about the British thing is you You said Britain's greatest ever SMW was Italian and the crux of your argument was


"I see him more as Welsh/Italian , British doesn't come into it. He clearly feels that way as well.
He used to have the Welsh and Italian flags on his shorts , but I never saw a Union Jack."
