Pfft, what a non-story. We're used to it now
But seriously, I don't see the need to point out we're above England or any other team. The fact is we are surprising people by being on such an upward spiral and I'd rather we focus on that. OK we'll always have national sporting rivalries but cultivating those won't bring success.
I'd rather all the home nations stick together and show the rest of the world what the UK can do. I confess to getting a kick out of hearing some non-Brits saying things like "I hadn't heard of Wales before" or "I didn't know Wales had a team" as a passive-aggressive petty dig - fine by me, they'll be hearing about us now
