Occasions like this don't come along for small/underdog countries very often. When they do, entire stadiums can become a seething mass of excitement and noise (e.g. South Korea 2002 - when entire stadiums worked as one to scare the bejesus out of opposition teams/referees).
Every man, woman and child needs to be counted on Monday - from every 'home' seat in the CCS.
The Ninian/Grandstand/Family stand should join the Canton in a sea of colour and noise. Let's take it to the Irish !
How about the fact very few of us on here have EVER seen Wales qualify for a World Cup !
Can you imagine being third and out with 10 minutes to go, then two quick goals see Wales go top and qualify automatically? The Austria result will, I think, give Wales something to aim for other than second. I was a bit worried before that result that Wales would go for the draw and hope for the best - now the equation means a win could bring automatic qualification. Monday will be chaotic.
I know. I feel a measure of excitement and sheer dread. Finishing work early on Monday to drive to Cardiff with my lad for the game. A few months ago I thought our final game would be meaningless. Against Austria and Moldova it looked a bit bleak and tonight looked iffy but two young guns have us right in the mix. Jeez. We may still have the agony of the play offs yet.
Got a four day weekend for this (planned ahead a while back). Heading up from Chichester on Monday morning.
It doesn't get any bigger, does it !?
