John_B81 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Last nights win means they just need to beat Israel on Sunday to secure qualification for their first major finals in 58 years. I know there will be a good few on here who can't stand them, largely because of Bale, but I hope they do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairbairn Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Fair play to them. Teams like them and Iceland are who we should be looking at and thinking "why the fcuk not?". Granted Wales best players are better than our best players however when you take them away and compare the rest of the 2 squads I genuinely think we are better off.

jock strap Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Chuffed for my Welsh mates but sick at the thought of what we have left to do so we qualify anaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrystarfish Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 1958 is a hell of a long wait. Don't mind if they qualify, but always with the caveat "as long as we're there too." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Was a very well worked goal and great finish last night they've worked hard and obviously Bale is a huge part of that but fair play to them, let's hope we can join them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewolf_1980 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 The horrible scenario of us being the only home nation to miss out looms large, although I still suspect that Norn Iron will make an arse of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellyman Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Full credit to Wales but they are basically a one man team, take Bale out of there team and they are mediocre at best They have won 6 games so far in there group and scored 9 goals Bale has scored 6 of those goals and basically won 4 of those games by scoring those goals. But good luck to them, 58 years is a long time to wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShedTA Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Shows what a difference having just one or two seriously good players can do for a team. It's what Scotland badly miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairbairn Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Shows what a difference having just one or two seriously good players can do for a team. It's what Scotland badly miss. Agreed. Ramsey and Bale (and possibly Williams) elevate what is a pretty ordinary team to something much, much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toepoke Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Shows what a difference having just one or two seriously good players can do for a team. It's what Scotland badly miss. Aye, Wales have it with Bale, Portugal have Ronaldo, Sweden have Ibra. When are we going to get a superstar?!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topcat Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Fair play to the Welsh - dare I say it we stole Argentina from them in 1977 courtesy of Joe Jordan's hand https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=76&v=foXf3n1Mv0I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weekevie04 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Great country. Spent 10 days there in the summer. Magnificent people - lots, and lots of goodwill to us. Don't feel anything but admiration for them. They've still go their language in the heartlands, and it's strong where it's strong 90% etc. I'll support them next year.

DaveyDenoon Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I live in South Wales. It's gonna be hard going now watching them there and we don't qualify. But fair play to them they're doing it on merit and deserve their success. They've only achieved something we couldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
