Will certainly be interesting to see how Wales will cope without Bale and Ramsey.

Can't see many goals from the men in red - it'll be like watching the City!

It is but it's part of a vital build up to a major tournament and therefore can't be viewed as "only a friendly".

We will now have the opportunity to see if Wales is a one man band as many supporters fear,I in fact would argue that we are a two man band,and Ramsey is not playing either, so watch this space

That'll hit the crowd a fair bit, unless most people have already bought their tickets.

Not sure if it'll hit the crowd that much. About 25k have been sold already, I think!

Not sure how you can say that, still got plenty of creativity in that squad!

Remind me how many goals Wales scored that were not scored by Rambo or Bale in 10 qualifying games?

Fair enough, only two (Cotterill and HRK), but there are still players in that squad who are in form and are exciting, creative players.

Going back to your original post, to compare Wales with CCFC in terms of attacking play is insulting!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

You're right - it is insulting! :thumbup:

Just meant that we may not see many more goals scored by wales than we do by Cardiff at the moment.

Certainly watching Wales is nothing like the chore that watching the City has become recently.
