Well said!

We, justifiably, on times have a go at the players during games both individually & collectively but at least they’re out there or on the bench making themselves available. Years ago watching Wales at the Millennium Stadium a bloke sat in front of me moaned that he couldn’t believe Vinnie Jones was in the side, I tapped him on the shoulder and told him that Vinnie was a better player than Ryan Giggs. Of course he told me I was talking bollocks, I replied “He definitely is tonight”, as usual Giggs was on the missing list. He reluctantly agreed.

Was that the game where Stoichkov ran riot for Bulgaria. I think it was Vinnie's first Welsh cap?

I remember that night. In the old National Stadium. I think it was Jones's debut and he got sent off.

It was a surreal experience that evening! I went with a Glaswegian mate who was screaming in an almost inaudible accent how crap we were and wanted to punch anyone who told him to keep it down!
