A WELSH football fan seems unwilling to join in with the English celebrations during the World Cup, leaving co-workers baffled.

Rhys Llewelyn-Jones accompanied a group of work mates to watch England play but seemed oddly less than jubilant when the Three Lions were victorious.

Stephen Malley said: “Strangely Rhys doesn’t appear to be enjoying England’s run at all. He tends to watch the games in stony silence except for when he accidentally cheers when the opposing team has a good chance.

“He does talk a lot about being Welsh, but surely Wales is just part of England really isn’t it? Like a county or something.

“Although when I made that point Rhys didn’t seem to happy and started muttering in another language, I guess it was French.”

Llewelyn-Jones has confided to close friends that his bags and packed and resignation note written so that if England do lift the trophy on Sunday he can drive straight to the airport to emigrate.

Rhys Llewelyn-Jones said: “It’s nothing personal but I’d rather North Korea won the World Cup.”
