OTT?

It was surely a little bizarre watching the reception for the Wales football team on their return from Euro 2016.  OK so the Principality are proud of them - I get that - and they did "punch well above their weight" in the competition, but let's keep our feet on the ground - they were losing semi-finalists.  Well done boys, and all that, but to behave as though they had won the World Cup frankly made them and their fans look rather ridiculous.  And as an Englishman, I feel I need to make the point - England 2,Wales 1.  Bitter and twisted - who, moi??  No, just realistic.  Perhaps we're more used to "nearly but not quite" performances, and know how to deal with them appropriately.
