9) Wales were out of the World Cup in the quarter-final. Considering Brazil won the semis and final by 5-2 scores, you can just about see an argument a that the FAW cost Wales the World Cup!

8) Finally Wales turned to inside-forward Colin Webster, who was already in trouble for headbutting a waiter in a Stockholm nightclub. Twice in the opening 20 minutes he missed good crosses that the six inches taller John Charles may have converted. Pelé scored the only goal 17 minutes from time.

7) Centre-half Ray Daniels could have also been picked, which would have allowed Mel Charles to move to centre-forward, but wasn’t selected after he sang a series of songs from Guys and Dolls following a qualifying loss to Czechoslovakia, which appalled the religious FAW Secretary Herbert Powell.

6) Derek Tapscott was fit but he wasn’t selected because he refused a suggestion from Fred Dewey of the FAW (and Cardiff City’s board) that a move to Cardiff City would improve his World Cup chances.

5) Charles was injured after a 2-1 playoff win versus Hungary, but Wales had no reserve centre forward. 34-year-old Trevor Ford was still playing well at PSV Eindhoven, but was left in Holland for admitting he took under-the-table payments while playing for Sunderland.

4) Charles’s flight from Turin was delayed and nobody waited for him at the airport. He had to spend an hour and a half trying to find where Wales were staying and got a lift from Dewi Lewis of the Western Mail, turning up at breakfast three days before the first game against Hungary.

3) John Charles didn’t arrive until three days before the first game; the FAW at no point thought to lobby Juventus to ensure his prompt release. They simply wrote a letter to Juventus.
Sweden sent delegates to lobby Serie A clubs in person, got their players in good time, and made the final.

1) Wales took 18 players to the World Cup instead of the allowed 22; they however took 16 FAW directors.
2) when the squad gathered in London they found their tracksuits hadn’t arrived and their pitch booking fell through, so they trained in Hyde Park instead.

Okay, I’m reading Jonathan Wilson’s history of the World Cup and the 1958 FAW would give the WRU at any point of the last 50 years a run for their money!
I shall elaborate now.

A good guideline is you should never watch porn in the office. Well, there’s exceptions for everything.

My son dug into a box of stuff in my shed, so I found this on the floor.
The halcyon days when Wales were the hottest team in rugby. They won this Test 77-3.
I got to watch this match with my grandfather, one of the very few Yanks to speak Cymraeg as a first language.

This is why your scrum half shouldn’t get himself sent off in the first half. Silly boy Serin.

I love watching Uini Atonio play because it’s illustrative of how far you can get in rugby by walking. And that’s quite far!
