Again, I haven't said that. The media has always been England-centric anyway and it gets worse at the World Cup. If Wales ever made it to the finals (ha! The FAW have measures in place to ensure that doesn't happen) would we get souvenir editions of The Sun? Special pull-out posters of the boyos in The Mirror? Nope.

As I've said, you don't notice it because you're used to it.
