Giggs on the brink of Wales appointment

[J R Hartley]

This, I took 3 / 4 days off work ( sometimes without pay ) to go and watch Wales around Europe

Friendlies or Games that were meaningless ( due to failed qualifications ) It didnt matter to me, i was going to support my Country, Cheer on the team.

When you learnt that Giggs had pulled out of the squad ( pre internet days ) despite playing for Man Utd on Saturday , it became a bit of a joke, almost expected, how can a player think so little of his country that he couldnt be arsed to play ( i know i have mentioned i represented Wales in Judo ) you have no greater honour to represent your country in sport, it should be the pinnacle, it just wasnt for him, so how can he expect respect from todays players ? ? ? Saying " Oh I won this and that for man utd " will not cut it

You are not seriously comparing amateur judo to being a proffesional footballer at the very top level!?!?!

indeed I am

Where the ultimate honour is to represent your county, it doesnt mind if its amateur judo or proffesional footballer at the very top level

That Welsh Logo / dragon on your chest ( or on your hip in judo's case ) should be a honour

Can't disagree with that at all.

A great honour to represent your country in what ever your chosen sport is.

And don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

I will be honest, it was a honor, a massive one ( my mum came along and cried when they introduced us ) When Bale spoke about all he needed was the dragon on his chest, I got it

which as you can see makes giggs and his actions even harder take
