We needed pace the last 15 mins
Instead of Mantando we get Bradshaw

Disastrous result for the future of Welsh football. As pessimistic as I am about Page being kept on and the fact his substitutions are still far too slow, I'm happy to let this one go for the joy of seeing Brooks score for us.

God that was poor, i know weve won, but that was terrible. Against a pretty woeful side we have somehow made it a contest only put to bed by a 97th minute goal.

Latvia reminded me of Wales for a lot of the 80’s, 90’s and noughties. Losing 1-0, should be 3 and you tease your fans that there might be an equalizer in the pipeline only for the dominant team to break away and finish the game off!

That free kick they had at the end certainly had my heart racing, that had disaster written all over it. Well done Brooksey.

Positives: Great result and created plenty of chances
Negatives: We really struggle to take our chances and have done for a long time. It’s less to do with ability than composure I think. We were losing shape, discipline and energy in the second half yet Page waited and waited to make changes.
We deserved to win but easily have thrown it away. On to the next one. We need to win against Croatia so I hope Page has a brainstorm.

Disastrous result for the future of Welsh football. I'm going to stick up for Page here, if we'd have taken just a quarter of our very decent chances the performance would have been hailed as a statement win, fantastic display of attacking football etc Page can be held accountable for many things but not Brennan Johnson finishing like a League One level player.

Disastrous result for the future of Welsh football. Page was always getting the play-offs. I’m not a Page fan but I worked that out a while ago that he’s not going anywhere until the qualifying is finished.

Decent performance against League 2 standard opposition. But it says something that for me the Motm was James, simply by doing the simple things consistently well.

Disastrous result for the future of Welsh football. Honestly fuck off if you want wales to lose you’re no fan The entire match I was willing us to score, and absolutely celebrated when we did, like any other Wales match. I can’t turn that off. But now it’s over, I would have to say, looking at the bigger picture, looking 2/3/4 years ahead, I think a loss tonight and a change of manager would benefit us more than the three points tonight. I don’t think we will qualify through the group, and I think a new manager coming in would do better in the play offs if he had the rest of the qualifiers to work with. Do you disagree with any of that?

I am fairly confident of getting 3pts v Turks. Not so confident of getting anything v the Armenians. Forget about the Croats, they could put their u21's out against us and stroll to a 2-0 win.

There is the players though. If they want it enough and you got the three center backs which they like then the players could pull it. Page might not have a large part to play.

If Brennan scores that chance from a beautiful Ampadu pass in the opening seconds we batter them 4 or 5. We HAVE to get better at finishing, everything else becomes that much easier then.

When you’re doing as badly as we are I would say it’s worth the risk of trying someone else. And if Page miraculously got us qualified, he would then obviously manage us at the tournament again, and we know how’s that’s gone the last two times. Wales Turkey in the euros was his only good game at a tournament.

Do you disagree with any of that? If there was any guarantee that Page would lose his job if Wales lost then you may have 1% of a point. But the FAW may (incorrectly) still have kept him on if we lost, so hoping Wales lose just to get rid of Page makes no sense.

We need to beat Armenia, get at least a draw against Croatia - then we go into the last game knowing a win qualifies us
