He was born in Chester. He's English, grew up in Wales I think. He has/had a really nice massive house, near where my dad lives in North Wales.

There is a welsh connection somewhere, maybe his Mum or Gerbil were born in Wales

Eh? Robbie Savage was born in Wrexham and went to school there.

You might not want to boast that you went to school in Wrexham but the place is certainly in Wales.

'The Prisoner' was filmed in Wales, and Michael Owen does have a number ......definitely indicates a connection .........

Yeah, parents are both & lived in Mold when Michael was born in Chester, which is 16 miles away.
