It’s all going to be here. Loadsa games and loadsa excitement, especially for the World Cup Play Off Final. Will Wales have to rely upon the referee if it comes down to a Scotland final ? Will handyman Joe Jordan be there ? It’s all up in the air, or apparently up for grabs now.

Are you going to the final?
Can't wait.
Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Apparently 1 squad to be named for all the games which is probably necessary but we never have competitive games in the same window for two different competitions so it's a weird one.
But name a big squad and don't risk anyone against Poland.

I think Page will be very careful about what players he plays against Poland but I don't think he will play a total second string team, as regards the Nation's League Wales would need to finish above Poland not to get relegated from the top division, I think Wales will play our first choice goalie, Joe Rodon, Aaron Ramsey for 45 to 60 mins if he doesn't play between now and the end of the season and Gareth Bale for 45 to 60 mins to give him some game time as well players that are likely to be on the bench for the play off final.
Continually being banned by Planet Swans for Porthcawl and then being reinstated.

As bad as it sounds, I honestly couldn't care less about this nations league campaign (which is sad because it's our first at the top tier).
All focus must be on the play off. Only person id consider giving minutes to in the Poland game would be whatever keeper is going going to play v Scots/Ukraine.

I agree, couldn't give a flying f@#£ about Poland, start with a second eleven and drip feed first teamers in as the poles tire.

A great chance for Norrington-Davies, Davies (GK) Matondo, Johnson, Levitt, Colwill, Isaak Davies Lockyear perhaps to get game time as potential regulars.
Lawrence T should come back and captain the B team. Jonny Williams, Hennessey, Gunter can add to the collection of caps. Big Sam Vokes has been scoring goals.
A couple of kids are hedging their bets and could be allowed a slot Chem Campbell and Hesketh of Wolves.
Wise sage since Toshack era

Wales are in an unique period when the 'stiffs' of the second team are actually a cohesive unit. A mix of veterans, good old pros with young guys pressing for the trip to Qatar all being well. They put in a great shift under Page v Mexico and recently the Czechs.
a) Good a old pros 2016 veterans Hennessey, Gunter, Vokes, Jonny Williams Andy King,
b) Hardened lower league battlers Vaulks, James Lawrence, Vokes, Lockyear, Norrington Davies, Andy Davies
c) Young guns desperate to be involved Cabango, Colwill, Isaak Davies, Matondo, Brennan Johnson, Brandon Cooper, Ollie Cooper Broadhead. Levitt.
d) Players forgotten about who are making a claim to return Tom Lawrence Ben Woodburn and Regan Poole. Matt Smith.
e) Players not yet up for consideration Liam Cullen, Lewis Webb, Dan Williams, Luke Jephcott. Jack Vale.
It has been a long time since Wales can leave out a player as good as Tom Lawrence.

Some of those "good old pros" aren't even League One level. Jonny Williams had a decent season at Swindon, Chris Gunter is being released by Charlton. Embarrassing that they're involved in squads still.

We're still winning games. Means it isn't embarrassing at all.

If we weren't winning however, different story.
The team that beat Mexico in a feisty friendly last season included only big Kieffer from the first team.
I expected a tonking off the Mexicans when I saw the team, with Jonnie W and Tom Lawrence as wingbacks.
Wales had their first ever win over a strong Mexican team in a match that both teams took seriously. This is the point I was making. The "stiffs" are tough to beat these days under Page.
The team that day was
Hennessey, Gunter, Cabango, R N-Davies Jonnie W, Levitt, Smith, Tom Lawrence Tyler Roberts Matondo Kieffer.
