The Football Assiciation of Wales will hold a conference today to discuss who should take charga of their country next. Welshman Ian Rush, Chris Coleman and John Hartson are among Brian Flynn’s rivals. The new manager will be named by December 1st.
A Daily Post writer feels Brian Flynn got the tactics wrong against Bulgaria and Switzerland. I hate to say it but I think he’s got a point (unlike Wales). However I don’t agree that Wales had no chance of winning against Bulgaria and Switzerland. Northampton Town beat Liverpool after all.
Brian Flynn would like to become Wales’ permanent manager but he doesn’t think he needs to make any big changes to the side.
Gareth Bale and Ashley Williams believe Brian should be offered the Wales job.
Having all but giving up on his own wish to play for Wales again, Robbie Savage is now putting in a good word for Ryan Giggs.
Shaun MacDonald says he was proud to make his Wales debut against Switzerland. The Swansea City midfielder, now on loan at Yeovil Town, has made a record number of appearances for the Wales under-21s but hadn’t appeared for the senior squad until Tuesday. Yeovil manager Terry Skiverton was also delighted for him.
Darcy Blake was also very happy to make his Wales debut, particularly now Brian Flynn is the manager. Brian has played a big part in helping Darcy to progress from the under-17 side to the senior squad and Darcy hopes he’s offered the job of Wales manager permanently and he feels Wales will soon start to get the right results.
Christian Ribeiro's second international cap left him with mixed feelings.
Gareth Bale hopes Wales will beat England next year and believes it could happen. Me too, Gareth!
Danny Collins hopes to be in the squad to face England.
The return of Aaron Ramsey from injury could provide Wales with the boost they need to get one over on England.
The Daily Post North Wales looks at the difficulties of attending a Wales match. I don’t really see the problem of internationals always being held in South Wales, England matches are always held in Wembley and I’ve never heard people from the north of England complaining (well, not about Wembley anyway) but the article does make a very good point about how difficult it is for people with jobs and/or children to get to a Friday night match.
I don’t think the writer’s children will necessarily be put off supporting Wales though. I grew up in England but while I am more Arsenal than Cardiff City, I certainly don’t feel any love for the England team. If Theo Walcott scores a hat-trick against Wales I’ll be in a mood with him for weeks. Unless, of course, Aaron Ramsey scores four.
