And anyway Cornish is simply Welsh with anglicised spelling -- there are really only a handful of real Cornish words.
And as I said, BBC Wales are contenting themselves with their own Sport Personality of the Year programme in ready anticipation of being ignored by the 'British' sporting media.


A bit off beam I'm afraid , Cornish and Breton have verb declensions more allied to Gaelic with Brythonic words - they're all members of the same family of languages that diverged some time back. To say that Cornish is Welsh with English words is silly as Cornish was there a long time before English and a lot of Latin root words were in Welsh and Cornish before English was even started.

Yeah I wasn't really being serious to be honest, but I take your point.

I wonder if the ITV weather team like cornish pasties?

But to continue with the critique of English rugby " support" - apart from the genuine fans ,amongst whom I count some long lasting friends, the vast majority of them are bandwagon-jumpers,johnny-cum-latelies,carpet-baggersand redundant used car salesmen. The most Knowledgeable person in the English crowd at Twickers is the Horsey lady with the bottle of Bolly who keeps asking " Are we going to win, Roger ? ". That about sums them up, - if they win at Twickers they hang around- BUT IF THEY LOSE ! -= you won't see them for dust, they're off home to the wife or their local, they can't face defeat and talk about it - losing face is not on - and the papers the next day make sure they're not reminded of it too much. How much coverage would we have had if Wales had beaten England and the "chaps" had come home early ?
HHMMMMMMM ?
