We are mid 6 Nations Rugby matches (England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, France, and Italy).
I just love this sole Welshman singing the Welsh anthem amongst a whole crowd of French supporters.
Had this been a Football match he'd have been torn to shreds, but Rugby fans always remain friends with the opposition, and stand side by side as spectators.
It is always said that Football is a gentlemen's game played by hooligans, and Rugby is a hooligans game played by gentlemen. I think that applies to their supporters too.
Wales play Ireland tomorrow. Not an easy match, they'll need a lot of singing.
I will (of course) be rooting for Wales!!!

Brilliant. I love it when the crowd sing ….. another that gives me shivers up my back is when Liverpool fans sing ‘ You’ll never walk alone ‘ XXXX
There'll be plenty of singing on Saturday, and I'm sure the man above will be amongst them.
That really does sum up rugby, players and followers. We have been enjoying the Six Nations, we will be rooting for Wales too. Regards Sue H
My mother had Welsh roots, and I believe I am 44% Welsh. So, I am divided between supporting England, Wales, and France. Never the other three.
I loved that, he has a good voice. I hope Wales won.
I'm not sure when it was, so I can't check. But I'm sure they did after that wonderful singing.
Applause xx
The Welsh national anthem is even better than the French one. I wish that England had an equally rousing national anthem. Score prediction: Wales 8 Ireland 42.
I knew you'd enjoy that John!
Frankly it'd be a miracle if Wales won, but I live in hope.
Great fan. I'm sure he went viral. Wish our sports channels would show rugby
Even my wife is a big fan of the 6 Nations competition.
You'll have to let us know who wins. The anthem is beautifully sung.
The Welsh are very passionate singers, they're well known for it.
