#6Nations call-ups & not before time. How #Gatland couldn’t find places for this pair of #Cherry&Whites, in a struggling #Wales squad, is beyond me. Both having very good #PremiershipRugby seasons and integral to #GloucesterRugby’s resurgence. Expect both to start against #Ireland.

Now we know what that text was all about

Poor #Wales and poor #Gatland. His record does tell me there is another dynamic - a systemic one - to Welsh #RugbyUnion failure. #WRU The proof of the pudding will be how next coach does.

Oh, that happened quicker than expected in the end

It so clearly wasn’t working this time around, but there’s no forgetting those magical times past, like:
30-3 v ENG 2013
25-7 v IRE 2019
40-6 v AUS 2023
even the last min 32-30 defeat in Paris 2019

Rest in peace Warrenball. #gatland

Sources in #Wales have told me that Leo #Cullen maybe on Wales hit list for the Head Coaching job now that #Gatland is gone. There would be a lot of support for this from….. #Leinster fans💥

Not the coaches fault when you've got a business stuck in the Amateur Era living off past glories, with no forward thinking or business acumen.
The managers of your local League 4 West mid-tier team would do a better job.
Rock bottom will be when there's no one at the games.

Oh dear Wales....letting Gatland go, piss poor decision. He can only work with the players he has at his disposal, the fact they are not up to the mark is the fault of years of shite mis-management of the Welsh game by the WRU. Shocking state of affairs. #gatland #WRU

Warren Gatland: Wales rugby union head coach to leave role Warren Gatland is set to leave his role as Wales head coach after 14 successive Test match defeats.

Sad the way it's ended for a guy who brought us so much success, but was a mistake for him to come back and for us to re-employ him. Only issue is who wants the job 😂 #Gatland #Wales #RickysWorld

Pain continues for Welsh Dragon Well week two of the Six Nations kicked off this Saturday in Rome, as a rejuvenated Italian team played a confidence stricken Wales. Italy performed well in Week one, narrowly losing to Scotland aw…

My next blog discusses Welsh Rugby and today's game against Italy. Another defeat for our Welsh boys, let me know what you think. Give me a follow! #ITAWAL #SixNations #WelshRugby #Gatland #LossRecord #FutureStars #Change #RickysWorld

Unfortunately, #Gatland will be made the scapegoat for this mess we're in, when in reality it's been 30yrs in the making.

No doubt, he'll walk or be pushed, and they'll replace with another super duper coach and the sorry cycle will continue.

Organisation is rotten from the top down. #welshrugby

#Wales are at the lowest ebb I can remember.

Only positive I can think of... #DanBiggar. Tremendous, if slightly one-dimensional player - *manager* of games - now excellent pundit.

Fire #Gatland tonight & stick #Biggar in there.

#Italy #SixNations

#Wales getting comprehensively outplayed by #Italy is really not a good look. Either for #Gatland or for the players.

#SixNations

I honestly don't think I have ever seen #wales be this consistently poor. I have followed this team for actual decades now, and it's just awful. I honestly feel that #gatland and his team need to step down. Now. mid tournament. it's not gonna make anything worse.

Wales 'in this together' as Gatland speculation grows Wales number 8 Aaron Wainwright says "we are all in this together" as speculation rages about head coach Warren Gatland's future following a record 11 successive Test match defeats.

It is not #Gatland 's fault nor is it the players' fault. A fish rots from the head. #WRU, I'm looking at you.

Lets make Nigel Walker head coach. It's possibly the only way he might get fired. #walvaus #gatland

surely to god this is the end of #Gatland. We should never have had him back, and the team is going backwards with him at the helm. I won't cope with the 6 nations if #Wales are this consistently crap. #WalvAus
