It strikes me as ludicrous that Wales are looking to appoint one of Ryan Giggs, Craig Bellamy and Osian Roberts - 2 of them with no real managerial experience and one hardly earth-shaking. Remember the success that Bobby Charlton and Nobby Stiles made of their managerial careers?

I do remember Charlton having a miserable Player-Manager career with Preston....and also, Nobby at the Albion (ahem)!
I also seem to remember that Billy Wright made a real mess of things at Arsenal. My memory tells me that Arsenal had 4,000 for a League Div 1 game, whether or not there was a big boycott I can't remember, but this would be about mid 60s. (Can anyone confirm?)
