Is he mixed-race?

How on earth is that relevant? 217.42.143.141 20:06, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

• I think Coleman may possibly have some Jewish or other heritage in him

, but he may just have the typical swarthy featurues common in some native Welsh. In any case, his other feautures still look mainly Welsh/British.69.157.102.219 17:11, 28 June 2007

Judaism is a religion, not a race. How can someone "look" Welsh/British, when Wales is IN Britain. That's like saying he looked Scottish/Glaswegian! Snowbound 22:10, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

No you're wrong. Judaism is a religion, but he said Jewish, which is also an ethnic group. 79.72.6.132 07:52, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Really it's several distinct ethnic groups - specifically Chris looks slightly Sephardic --MartinUK (talk) 21:38, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I don't accept anything from non-registered posters. Snowbound 22:09, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

That chant i beleive, is "Chrissy Coleman Blaw army" not "cookie coleman blaw army", being a regular in the stands i think i can confirm this

I heard years ago that he was eligible to play for the Republic of Ireland via his mother. Is this true?
