I went on the Wales talk board to see what they are say about us. So here are some of their posts. If you want more just ask and I would be happy to provide. Enjoy!!! -Emiliano Go U.S. USA Game - Very Disappointing Gareth Brace - 1st post - 17 May 2003 12:29 I was very much looking forward to the USA game but now I have seen how many of our players are not making the trip I cannot see much of a point in having the game at all. I considered this to be an excellant chance to beat another team in the top ten, move up the rankings, add to our unbeaten run and continue the positivity of the team. There was also the added bonus of promoting Wales as a country in environment where most of the inhabitants think the whole island of the cost of France is called "England" ! (Saw this on CNN the other day !) It's good that we will blood some new players and see what the rest of the squad could do, but do we have to go all the way to the USA for this ? Why not play a European team ? Obviously I still want Wales to win and I see that as the only positive outcome. A good training match for the squad ahead of their Euro games would also have been positive whatever the result, but most of the team to face S&M will not be there. Good luck to the boys who are going, but in my heart I feel we are going to get a beating which we will learn nothing from.... re: USA Game - Very Disappointing Andy Drumm - 4th post - 17 May 2003 14:52 You are absolutely right what a shame we are about to throw away our record to a team and a fan base that has no appreciation of football. Kasey Keller ruled out of USA game Dave B - 4th post - 16 May 2003 16:31 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foo...otspur/3029841. stm Some good news I guess. Lets hope Brad Friedel gets injured now.

I really wanted us to win this game, but now it'll be like a third division side against a weak premier league side. Not good odds. I know I have printed alot already but I have to show you guys this and then I'll try to shut up for a while. Here are some other Wales' fan's posts Wales Reserves!!! D. W. - 116th post - 16 May 2003 16:04 Good old FAW. eh! The intellectual titans screw up again. Thanks to their usual incompetence, we're taking a reserve team (if you can call it that) to the USA friendly. (...and England complain about the possible loss of Rooney)! Sais, you don't know you're born! [reply] [Alert A Moderator] re: Wales Reserves!!! The Blues - 201st post - 16 May 2003 16:28 It's a bit of a shame that Wales aren't taking their full team. I can't understand why they aren't doing it. Twll dun pob sais [reply] [Alert A Moderator] re: Wales Reserves!!! Rob Williams - 103rd post - 16 May 2003 22:00 When we get a result there let all the doubters of the depth of the welsh squad be amazed because sparky will get a result with them boyz we will still do well with div 2 and 3 players lets hope Koumas turns up and plays a blinder.

They have to play New Zealand,Brazil and Turkey. So they might not be that interested. The game is being broadcast live across the USA. [reply] [Alert A Moderator]
