People criticise Pulis' brand of football, but it can't get much worse than under Coleman. The only reason we haven't done so bad recently is average/poor opposition (Scotland) and Gareth Bale. John Hartson should be no where near the team either. Dutch Ray should of been manager and it's all gone down hill since :(

If you like Coleman then you are a closet Jack end of.

Coleman won me over the night we played Croatia, we may have lose 2-1 but it was the best performance i've seen our boys give since the Norway game under speedo, fairplay to Coleman he might not be the best manager out there but he is slowly getting things working his way and he has my full support for the next campaign!

I would have preferred Dutch ray at the helm and thought the way the FAW treated him was bang out of order, and there lies the problem in welsh international football ( the old twats ). But we got who we got,never going to be colemans biggest fan but we should all get behind the Welsh team to qualify for a euro or World Cup tournament.( in my life time would be nice) :ayatollah:

I've been watching Wales for years and the drastic difference (or should I say loss?) of style under Coleman has been stark.

Take the Norway game under Speed for example. We looked electric to be fair. Bellamy and Bale were immense and our passing was slick, precise and speedy. Dare I say it Swansea-esque. The same applies to Switzerland at the Liberty. I genuinely believed we could qualify for a tournament if we kept it up. It was the best I'd ever seen us play.

Fast forward and what have we got? Footballing Tedium. Slow, ugly, fetid, hoof ball with absolutely no direction. The players looked lost at times against the ROI and were unsure whether to actually go forward at all. Past qualifiers under Coleman have shown me nothing to change my stance. He has no managerial nous and has been riding the Fulham wave all his career. He is dragging a team that were finally going places back down to square one. It really is sad.

Cmwann_Bluebird - bit of a gush on for Mr Coleman there boy!

My main objection to Coleman is the way he eats with his mouth open, wears shiny suits I last saw down the Top Rank in 1981, and can't for the life of him do his top shirt button up.

And I don't need no badges for that chief :ayatollah:

The game against Croatia has to be one of the most over rated performances (in terms of management/tactics) in a while, sat back too deep and too early and invited pressure which our defence couldn't cope with instead of playing to our strengths, and we inevitably lost despite the players best efforts.

Re: Chris Coleman

Fri Sep 06, 2013 6:56 pm

I've given Coleman my backing but this is f*cking woeful along with Serbia game. Losing to this garbage excuse of a team and only mustering a penalty as a goal is shite. And he is about to get a new contract on the back of these performances?

Faw can f**k off, clear them out and get a new manager in with some credentials the players can believe in and play off and get Bellers/Ray on the staff.

So if we qualified for France you wouldn't go or even watch :thumbup:


How on earth will we qualify with that panto at the helm?

If we were having a chance at qualifying we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Half of the senior welsh players didn't want Coleman or the cronies at the fa!!! It's a mess.

I reckon bellers would give it another go if it was sorted out!! :thumbup:



Very true, nothing against Coleman he comes across as a nice bloke & fair play being from Swansea he is very diplomatic about us but he is lacking in any tactical nous & I worry about our chances of qualifying for Euro 2016 with him at the helm probably our greatest chance of qualifying for a tournament in the modern era & especially with the talent at his disposal.
But sadly I think the fools at the FAW have made up there minds about offering him another contract even though the performances of the team have been poor & probably renew that oaf Hartson's contract.

This passport fiasco is all very embarassing & unproffessional
But did not Coleman have an incident when he was a manager in Greece when he was supposed t attend a press conference but was waiting for the washing machine but it transpires afterwards that he was pissed from the night before?

:ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Coleman's lacking in tactical nous? Go on then, explain exactly what he's lacking. You must have a coaching licence.

And as for the team's performances in the last two qualifiers, they could hardly be described as 'poor'.

So this fiasco is 'embarrassing', is it? Not really, nobody seems to have made much fuss over it.


Er I haven;t got a coaching licence but on the evidence of tonight;s performance im not the only one :D :D :D

I think it woould have been better if both Coleman & that oaf Hartson had not been issued with passports & left the coaching t Symons & Roberts :D :D :D

Same mate... U can scroll back and find a post on here where I stated my opinion on Coleman and I have not watched a single minute of any Wales game since that clown was put in charge. We have gone backwards so much, yet we have more premiership players than we ever have!

Negative tactics, lack of idea and direction! Joke!

Coleman just said that Bale isn't fit and that putting him on the bench was to play mind games with Macedonia well that f*cking worked then :laughing5: :laughing5: :laughing5: :laughing5: :laughing5:

Did he really say that :oops:
Total amateur mentality, from a small minded manager.

How about picking players to beat them instead
