Barnet Seagull said:Oh dear. We've now got no hope of qualifying.
The Laughing Bluebird said:Have we ever had any real hope of qualifying?
With Hughes in charge we had no hope whatsoever as his tactics (for want of a better word) were pitifully negative. At least Toshack will try to win a game now and again. Not sure he'll succeed too often though!
Uncle Buck said:Is there anything coming through your U21's of any quality? Looking at the age of a number of key players, there is a danger of going backwards, again, a bit like what happened last time the WFA appointed Toshack.
The Laughing Bluebird said:There are a couple of quality players emerging. For a start, we have a 17 year-old lad called Joe Ledley who has broken into our first team and made a big impact in the last month. Left-sided midfielder who has already bagged two goals. He looks a terrific prospect and he hasn't even made the Welsh Under-21's yet..
However, as always the Welsh junior sides lack strength in depth. We have some very decent players, but we also have plenty of very ordinary ones too.
Hughes recently had a golden chance to get a Welsh team to the finals of a major tournament, but the negative tosser blew it. I suspect we'll have to wait another ten years before a similar opportunity presents itself.
