11 hilarious but very tenuous reasons to support Wales in Euro 2016 semi-final against Portugal

The internet is filled with tenuous claims to being Welsh whether it's 'My mum can pronounce Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch' or 'I used to love Manic Street Preachers'. 

It all kicked off with sports presenter Jake Humphrey who asked people to send in their suggestions using the hashtag #DoesThatCount. 

Here are some of our favourites:
