Wins against Montenegro, Gibraltar, Latvia, scudded off Slovakia. Drew with Gibraltar also. Compared to where they were (8th in FIFA rankings 2015), they`ve plummeted. "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" They took 4 points from 6 against Croatia too.They obviously aren`t the same team without Bale but a ranking of 29th to our 51st isn`t bad.

24. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Fri 15th Nov 2024. 18:14 Wales win in Turkyie tomorrow and they are in pole position for promotion back to League A of Nations League……… Our reluctance to give young lads a chance at international level and stick with the old pals act over the years certainly hasn’t helped us. Too much nonsense of “wanting to protect the young lad” instead of giving them a chance. Reply |
25. Author: DA-go Par Adonis Date: Fri 15th Nov 2024. 20:10 Like Ben Doak with 8 starts in club football, currently winning his 5th cap? Or Gilmour, who had started only a handful of games for Chelsea before his Scotland debut. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I love it when we go sell Kevin Nisbet, He's gonna pay for everyone this season.

26. Author: TAFKA_Super_Petrie Date: Fri 15th Nov 2024. 20:11 Wales have looked really good in the couple of games i`ve seen them under Bellmany, really seems to have put his stamp on the team; very direct and a lot of pace. --------------------------------------------------------------- [b]"People always talk about Ronaldinho and magic, but I didn't see him today.

28. Author: d3monstrate Date: Fri 15th Nov 2024. 20:50 I saw a good stat on Facebook, dont know how true it is, but said that of all the minutes played in the Scottish Premiership, most teams had less than 5% given to Scottish under 21s. 4 or 5 had 0% (both OF included). Most was Motherwell by quote some distance at 18%... Reply |
29. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Fri 15th Nov 2024. 21:47 da_no_1, Fri 15 Nov 20:47 The chances are low but you never know. Good result for us tonight and Doak was a ray of light - glad Clarke has finally seen sense in playing him. Conway falling foul of all of our strikers of late of not having anything really created for them though. Reply |
