Phil Bennett's Speech

In a speech cunningly crafted to raise the hackles, the normally mild-mannered Phil Bennett gathered the 1977 Wales XV around him at Cardiff Arms Park to intone:

"Look what these bastards have done to Wales. They've taken our coal, our water, our steel. They buy our homes and live in them for a fortnight every year. What have they given us? Absolutely nothing. We've been exploited, raped, controlled and punished by the English - and that's who you are playing this afternoon. The English."

CYMRU AM BYTH!
