It is of course possible to supplement Page's man management style with a more tactical one by bringing coaches in alongside him. Stuivenberg's gone and will need replacing

If only Roy Hodgson was thirty years younger. He did wonders for the Swiss national team in the mid 90's.

When is Giggs' trial expected be over?

Would be great to have a fresh start with a new backroom team before the qualifiers. Can't see that happening though...

Confirmed today that Stuivenberg has left his position as assistant coach Osian straight back in, surely? Why on earth would he want to? He dedicated a large of his career to work tirelessly for the FAW and when he gets interviewed for the main job they choose a weasel instead of him. Well, the weasel is still the manager and it doesn't seem is going anywhere until his trial is done and dusted or contract expires. Where does that leave Osian; 'Assistant to the temporary Manager'?

Page has done well, but I don't want him to continue long-term as the manager. I don't think he's ready for that.
We should have had someone else in by now.

Am not enthused by this. Total and utter mess.
Page is not going to bring someone in we need that will arguably have more tactical awareness than him is he?
We are gonna end up with one of the lads, as I doubt Giggs will dictate who is brought in.
How do we end up in these kind of situations?
I like Page as a person but think Denmark, Morrell and Colwill showed his significant managerial / tactical limitations.

So being beaten by superior opposition, picking Morrell despite not having any better players in his position to choose from, and selecting a youngster as the 23rd man instead of a journeyman when both would be guaranteed 0 minutes, these are the reasons Page has limitations? In short, there are no reasons you can list as to why Page has limitations

We are gonna end up with one of the lads, as I doubt Giggs will dictate who is brought in. How do we end up in these kind of situations? I like Page as a person but think Denmark, Morrell and Colwill showed his significant managerial / tactical limitations. I tend to agree. We saw under Coleman how it goes when a coach is a caretaker over another man's team. Different circumstances in 2012 of course but the ethos is the same...'don't change too much'. It only went right when Coleman went his own way circa 2014. I don't think Page has done that thus far, and for good reason to be fair. He's consistently maintained this is Giggs' team and, going forward, I can only assume that this ethos will continue until January. Page has been effectively firefighting for 12 months. I'm not sure how much of him and how much of Giggs has been in these last few performances, but all I'm certain of is that such a scenario can't be good long term as its a halfway house and we're not getting the best of either of them like this. Personally I'd like to have seen the FAW act back in February once we knew the CPS had extended Giggs' bail. For me they should have got shot of him then and started the interview process. They could have gotten a new man in place for the May friendlies, kept Page in charge for continuity's sake until after the Euros but let the new guy tag along to bed-in then change over for next month. That way everyone would be familiar with each other as we restart the WCQ's afresh. The way it is however it feels like we're still treading water, not saying that Page can't get the job done for us, but I'm certainly nervous about this ongoing temporary situation.

I can’t say the Alan Knill appointment fills me with much confidence But if he's been part of a coaching set-up which took Sheffield United from League One to the Premier League, he must have something about him as a coach. I'm not comparing him to Osian Roberts, but before being part of the Wales set-up (with the first team), the only senior side he'd ever coached/managed was Porthmadog. Don't think we should dismiss individuals just because they're not a Stuivenberg (who seems to be getting off scot-free, by the way) who's been at a big club. Sheffield United fans are pretty positive about him, anyway:

No credit for the subs that changed the game? Yes, probably deserves some credit for throwing Jonny and Harris on. Jonny made the biggest difference, once again. Does he not deserve to start a game maybe?
