What a pointless thread, there's been far better managers than GM that haven't played international football, Annis is just looking for a reaction and the sheep on here are happy to follow

He's absolutely right.

They've got a relegation struggle to concentrate on.

As Cardiff currently have zero senior player representation (which I find extremely embarrassing for a capital city club) I can't imagine it will have crossed Slades mind to remind the players to concentrate ,So pretty much a non event story wouldn't you agree , especially if you're a City fan.

I'm not embarrassed by it. Our academy has produced a number of Welsh players over the years. Sooner or later there'll be more.

What's that got to do with it? You do realise that England qualified as well don't you? And with a Swansea City player in their squad. Plus Gylfi with Iceland and Fabianski with Poland, meaning half of the team that will start on Monday against Stoke would have been involved in Euro qualification this week, so it's not a 'Welsh' thing. ;)
