I dont think i can comment on unfair eligibility ive got to prepare for the welsh trial. I will be very proud though if i do get it.
Why moan over the fact that your country is improving as a result of having a few runners who are evidently very proud to represent you despite being foreign
Correct, but the person who was moaning ain't Welsh or ain't running for Wales, YT was commenting on fact that there were such few Welsh ladies in the team. Any National eligibility rule is a great introduction in my view!Quote:
