l an much more of a Rugby Fan rather than football, But at least those fallowing the round ball can at least where their replica kit with pride,
For the record the 2016 official kit pf the Welsh Team that will soon be playing in European Championship next Saturday
Alas we Rugby fans are expected to wear this
The major difference of course is that whilst the WFA badge is a stylised Draig Goch the WRU have opetrd to use the Three Feathers of the heir to the English Throne the badge having no connection with the native Princes of Wales.
As bot a Nationalist and Republican , I object to wearing a Welsh Rugby shirt with the logo of someone whose claim to be "Prince of Wales" I object to,
So unless I am given a shirt with these symbols on as gift I seek out Welsh Rugby shirt with a less subservient badge.
Something like this
So Football supporters can wear their replica kit with pride .
We followers of the oval ball must either wear something like the above , or wear a symbol of our conquest.
It something we will not see changing soon or ever. but in the meantime perhaps we should agree on alternative badge designed to show our true allegiance and not to a foreign Prince.

Whatever about the badge after today’clueless, embarrassment against Sweden it looks like welsh football is going the way of welsh rugby, the players thinking they’ve arrived having qualified, they’ve given up trying and are waiting for a Bale miracle to win every match.
And like WRU and Gatland, Chris Coleman has signed a new contract before a major championships while his team look more and more one dimensional, do those running welsh sport ever learn?
Next Saturday when they play Slovakia and WRU take on New Zealand looks increasingly like the latest in a long line of hugely embarrassing days for Welsh sport.
Your rugby shirt has the white Saxon dragon on it!
Most international rugby sides shirts have the country's national plant or animal on it. The Leek is ours.
