QUOTES
SUNDAY 11 APRIL 1999 : WEMBLEY STADIUM
Successful rugby is not about scoring tries or involving 15 men in fluid, interactive, integrated attacking style. It is about finishing one point ahead on the scoreboard at the end of the match (Paul Ackford Telegraph 31 March 1999 when "boring, boring England" beat Ireland……….by one point)
The headlong rush into professionalism has carried England so far ahead of the Celtic nations that we are disappearing over the horizon. (Mick Dennis, March 1999 )
Anyone who thinks changing the Welsh coach will make any difference is living in
cloud-cuckoo-land. WRU development director (Jeff Evans, April 1998)
The Welsh haven't had a decent team since Max Boyce thought he was funny. (Mick Dennis )(London Evening Standard, March 1999 )
When we beat Wales this weekend I don't want any excuses from the Welsh. (Micky Skinner)
England or France will put 100 points on a Celtic Nation before the end of the century (Paul Ackford, March 1999)
There's no way Wales will score a try. (Kyran Bracken - Grandstand half time analysis)

I thought it was close to the post, to be honest, but I felt comfortable all day. I am really chuffed for the boys. If I would have missed it the crowd would have lynched me (Neil Jenkins)

It was the most nerve wracking experience of my life, we had done all we could and I was just praying for Wales (Kenny Logan)
England didn't respect us as much as they should have done but they will respect us now. (Graham Henry)
I am disappointed if Graham said that. This job is hard enough without coaches having a go at each other.(Clive Woodward)
Can you really see England losing this (John Inverdale)
……But Catt is no Jenkins. He sliced his opportunity and knew instantly that he would not be granted a second chance ( Chris Hewitt, Independent)
Celebrate! You are damn right. I'll have a bucket of chicken. Scotties eaten all the pies.(Craig Quinnell)
It was tremendous, unbelievable, the sun is shining in my house ( Jim Telfer- from a rainy Galasheilds)
Well done Wales. You played well. The best side won (Richard Cockeral)(NOT!)
Every day I wake up I thank the Lord I am Welsh (Shane Howarth)
Fi Fi Fo Fum. I smell the blood of an Englishman (Scott Gibbs)
Kyran was laughing (ha ha ha ha ha). Then Scotty danced over the line and he laughed no more (Tom
Jones)

Where are those horrible people saying one should place ones chariots (The Queen)
He's like a buffalo leading a stampede (Bill Maclaren commentating on Scott Gibbs' try)
England must now be firm favourites for the World Cup. (Eddie Butler on the BBC commentary with 5 minutes left )
MUNCH MUNCH MUNCH ... humble pie, tastes a bit like Welsh cakes.( Skinner after the game)
At the end they were so tired they were blowing out their arse. (Garin Jenkins, after game, about the England front row)
It is a pleasure and honour to coach a team with that sort of character (Graham Henry)
As long as we beat the English, we don't care (The Stereophonics)
Wales Defeated England in a fast and open game (Max Boyce)
The roar which drowned the final whistle was loud enough to shake the Severn Bridge. (Frank Malley, Sporting Life)
I never believed we would going to lose the game and I won't really believe it until I wake up. I am really mad about that (Clive Woodward)

It's in the bag for England. Barring some unforeseen catastrophe, Woodward's men look to have a certain Grand slam today. (Observer)
