pongo88 Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Giggs has no relevant managerial experience and no great allegiance to Wales as he hardly turned up for friendly matches. He is also a moral scumbag as he had an 8 year “affair” with his brother’s wife. If he was appointed as manager, what message would it send Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Didn't he win something like Sports Personality of the year once? Then it was revealed he had his lawyers take out a super injunction to stop them revealing details of his clearly messy domestic life? So not only is he a shit, but he then tries to hide the fact. Wales are welcome to him, but let's face it, Bale & Ramsey aside most of the rest of their team are really English, anyway.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBobSuperBob Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Will only be available for Friendlies As for Craig Bellamy - doing it the right way doing his badges and coaching Academy Kids at Cardiff Talks a lot of sense as a pundit and I think he’ll make a decent manager / head coach , if not right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't guess who is going to be a good manager. No one knows what decisions they will make. Most people thought Gary Neville would be a great manager because he, like giggs, learnt from fergie, and mainly because he sounded good on sky sports. Means f all really. I don’t disagree with this. I’m not defending Giggs, I’m offering reasons why he might be considered and why it’s not as strange as the OP is making it out to be. If the Welsh are keen to appoint a Welshman - as they always have done - then the options are limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dman_Red Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 It seems that most Premier League teams would see his appointment as a risk, as when the teams around the bottom fired their managers he didn’t seem to be a front runner for any of those jobs. Even teams in League 1 and 2 may see him as a risk. Like others have said, being a top player doesn’t guarantee success as a manager even when starting lower down. Who was the last PL player who succeeded when starting in the lower leagues? Hasselbaink at Burton maybe? Perhaps his best chance at club level would be when foreign owners invest in a club and want a “name” to boost interest, like when Zola replaced Rowett at Birmingham…but that could also work against him because we all know how that turned out.

South-of-river Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 So apparently Phil Neville is eyeing up the England (women’s) job.... still I give him more credit to start somewhere.. rather than try and EXPECT more than what he deserves.

Apparently Neville has been approached regarding this position....but different to him eyeing it up....but as you say, fair play for wanting to prove himself rather than expect to walk into a glamorous role just because he won a few medals...that’s if he accepts the job!

GrahamC Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Inspired appointment. Apparently when he was interviewed for the Swansea job, he was asked what he would do to improve results. His response was to say to "get the players to work harder". The questioner paused, expecting him to expand on it, with examples of say, changes in the training schedules, a different fitness regime, etc, but this was his complete answer. At least we know why they then appointed Bob Bradley instead.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were Going for a Welsh Rookie ex_player - Bellamys credentials are better than Giggs … Like Giggs a top player but understands the game to inside and out and a great listen IMO been doing his badges and loving coaching Cardiff’s Academy and is a mile sharper than Giiggs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
