News for you - Wales isn't a foreign country.

What anthem does England have before an international? GStQ. Therefore in the eyes of the FA that's the English anthem. Seems a bit odd that they should give that to a Welsh team.

Still, it's all about consideration and respect and there are clearly enough English who don't want any of it.
