WOULD YOU ACCEPT..

...A foreign manager in the Wales Job? By foreign I'm including English, Scottish and Irish managers.

What about the likes of:

Glenn Hoddle
Terry Venables
Martin O'Neil
Steve Coppell
Alan Curbishley

Only a suggestion but surely better quality than Kill Kenny Jackett!!

we need vinnie jones to get the fighting spirit in the team. we wouldnt get any players having injuries during friendlies coz he would jus smack them if that was the case :ayatollah:

Would prefer a welsh manager but the options are limited. Dont mind a foreign manager but wouldnt want an English manager personally

Personaly I hope West Ham lose heavily and Avram Grant gets the heave ho. I rate him as a manager and think he would do well with our young squad.

That's the reason we've not made any f*cking major tournaments since 1958 then! :P

I wouldn't mind having Hartson, Flynn, Giggs, Speed or Pulis right now to be honest. I'd just like us to take a gamble and go for someone fresh. Maybe someone enthusiastic, naive and optimistic is what we need rather than someone with experience?

I like the idea of Maradona. Someone set up a facebook group for that! :ayatollah:
