    Wales won't have any fear of Belgium, if anything it will be the other way around

    They know we are tough to beat, it's important that we frustrate as they have a history of getting wound up if things don't go their way. We should play very much like we did v england but don't get forced too deep too early as we did against them.

    Does it mean we're not allowed to watch any of the games they're not in?

    So - don't actually play the way you did against England?

    The idea is sound, to defend and frustrate. We just panicked and dropped too deep when Roy put 5 or 6 stikers on.

    As polite as you can be. There was some sheep related comment at the start.

    Sorry luv, can't agree.
    Usually when I watch a match I get a good impression after 5 minutes or so of where it's going to go. It's not foolproof, obviously, but it pans out often enough. From the first few minutes of the England - Wales game I thought you stood off too much. You have Bale who can always come up with a worldie, but he's the only reason you were ever in that game, imo.
    You lost to England - the worst team you've played so far (well, maybe Russia could give 'em a run for their money) purely because you went about it the wrong way and gave them far more respect than the useless buggers deserved.
    Go at the Belgiques and give them something to think about - that's my advice.
    It'll be more fun that way, too. <ok>

    I know what you mean I think my attitude is born of me worrying that well get smashed at some point but going out in a blaze of glory is what I'd prefer. Hopefully we will attack and score and win.

    Bobby Charlton was asked how he thought the England team of '66 would have fared against Iceland. " I think we'd have won 1-0 " he replied. "Only 1-0?" Said the reporter. "Yes," said Bobby. "Most of us are in our 70's now!"
