GRAND SLAM AWAY THOSE ENGLISH THREE FEATHERS FOREVER!
.
OK! OK! OK! A Grand Slam, great stuff, Wonder full to be Welsh for a while, until we loose again? So, I am not particularly into ''Sports Nationalism'' and a Patriotism that stops at wearing those WRU Red Shirts with those three English feathers there upon. It just goes to show how far down the road we are, away from seeing our people well informed of their history, even Ray Gravelle so some TV Rugby pundit said was proud to wear those three English Feathers. Kind of ironic given the fact that Owain Glyndwr was one of his greatest heroes, it just about sums up a great deal about Wales and the Welsh, not least where Rugby is concerned, See ''Cambrianism'' in http://cofcenedl.blogspot.com Rugby is our most popular support, though football fans dispute this and many say it is only made to appear like that due to our ''Mediacrach'' for a verity of reasons. Suffice to say for a number of Nationalists it is a great pain that they have to support a Welsh Team that has the badge upon it, of the English Pretender Princes of Wales. It gets even worse, that it is the iconic symbol of the English Crown's conquest of Cymru in the middle ages, not least in our history, it represents well the ''Taffy Turncoats'' who fought for the English at Crecy and Azincourt. Sad to say, I have seen many Political Patriots, even radical republicans wearing the WRU shirt and not thinking just how patriotically pathetic it is to join in with sending the wrong messages to the people of Wales.

It has been said to me that I am banging my head against a wall to campaign against the three English Feathers, Adam Phillips of Balchder Cymru wants to adopt them as some kind of Welsh Nat Patriotic Symbol. Great Glyndwr! sadly the Welsh did, or rather the London Welsh did in 1715 and again in 1745 for all the wrong reasons much to our national shame. If continuing a righteous campaign means I have to bang my head against the wall, then I will go on banging my head against the wall, why not join me? I have produced for you below my own GRAND SLAM AWAY THOSE ENGLISH THREE FEATHERS design, why not reproduce as a T-Shirt Design, do yourself via PC transfer and iron on to T-Shirt yourselves, or take design to your local T-Shirt Printer to do.

Maybe print out your own post cards and stickers, put up on your blogs/websites the above and below Anti - Three Feather Adfywiad Agit - Prop Art Work, not least email far and wide. C`mon bang your head against the wall, no ones asking you to pick up a sword and go into battle and bleed for Cymru, just for a while become an ``head banger`` and do some good patriotic Cymric Consciousness Campaigning, yes! do it! do it now!.
.
Now some ``Blue Peter`` stuff, a patriot sent me an idea with his designs on how it may be possible to turn the hated three feathers into a White Eagle Cross, can you improve on my attempts at taking design one stage further to good end product.

.Happy Easter.
