    End of an era for him as Wales manager surely

    It's awkward because he's not been found guilty of anything yet, but he should seriously think of resigning now or, at the very least, he should step aside completely to allow Rob Page, or someone else, to take us to the Euros.

    ABH on a woman and coercive and controlling behaviour, that’s him done in football if found guilty.

    There goes his knighthood again :

    Great opportunity for Wales this , put a past successful International manager in place in the guise of Mick McCarthy as a dual role as City /Wales Manager, save a fortune , that would attract all the young Welsh talent to the City , bingo World Cup and Premiership within our grasp.

    More chance of winning the Bingo than the World Cup or the Premier League

    This settles it now for the Euros, Rob page in charge.

    Re: Giggsy Charged

    There was a report earlier from Paul Abbandonato which suggested the following:

    Page doesn't inspire a Welsh nation the way a figure of Giggs' stature does, but he's performed a pretty decent job thus far in his six games as caretaker and behind the scenes the FAW have discussed him as option number one.

    It's not just about Page, though, it's also about Giggs' other coaches Albert Stuivenberg and Tony Strudwick.

    It's bad enough losing their manager, the last thing the players want so close to the Euros is further huge upheaval in Wales' coaching methods at this point.

    Page has been quite open in admitting Giggs has been involved in an unofficial capacity during the November and March international camps. He's also watched each of Wales' six matches in his absence and offered Page guidance on what was good, what could have been done better.

    When it comes to match-day substitutions, though, those have been entirely Page's own calls.

    If Giggs is out of the Euros, it would be very much Page's ship to run.
    Unless the charges are dropped before the Euros I cannot see Giggs being allowed to continue in his unofficial capacity and greater responsibility falls to Page and coaching staff. This is somewhat disappointing because, after a shaky start, Giggs' plan seemed to be working quite nicely for us and being a senior member of the staff down does mean things are going to be missing or more rushed in terms of preparation of Welsh camps - that would explain imperfect communication before last squad - when it was such a strength of the last tournament campaign.

    I felt that Giggs was repairing his Welsh reputation well but will avoid commenting further on him with more to come out about what he's alleged to have done.

    ITV weather girl Ruth Wignall's husband faced a similar charge last week and went down for three years when he was found guilty.

    They should throw away the keys

    Re: Giggsy Charged

    As a player, he was only Welsh whenever he wanted to be. I couldn’t give a toss if his career in football is over.

    Re: Giggsy Charged

    He should just resign and there should be a brand new recruitment not give it to page by default.

    Re: Giggsy Charged

    He’s let his country down once again. Don’t forget he admitted he would have retired from international football mid group EVEN IF Wales has still had a chance of qualifying. This is the last straw and he should go.

    FAW should grow a pair and jog him on.

    Agreed and if he doesn't resign then sack him and move on.

    Gents. He is innocent until proven guilty. Perhaps we should await the outcome of his trial.

    Very true, probably let my dislike of him cloud my judgement. Let's see what happens.

    Re: Giggsy Charged

    He must leave now. It's beyond embarrassing.
    Never thought he was good for my country.
    Sad end but it's over.

    Re: Giggsy Charged

    As bad as it is for Giggs, as a Cardiff lad can we leave it slide for a while then get all behind him to be manager for City?

    Does that only apply for Bellamy?

    No they're both characters I wouldn't want anywhere near my club.

    No, he should have done the honourable thing and stepped down at the start of the investigation, he’s representing a nation ffs, but Giggs past character is not honourable.

    You’re from the same village as Howard King. The only difference between him and Giggs was ole Howie was gifted his abuse of women for throwing the odd European match (Allegedly)
