Squad details correct up to

SFA.
Diary
Thursday, 24 April 1969 - The
Welsh FA announce a seventeen-man pool of players for the home
internationals. WIth the exception of Duk Krzywicki, all are full
internationals.
Friday, 25 April 1969 - The
Welsh Football Association have announced that another six players are to
stand-by to join the squad of seventeen.
Friday, 2 May 1969 - Wales suffered
a triple blow when three of their key players, Mike England, Terry
Hennessey and Peter Rodrigues, all withdrew. England has an ankle injury
and will not only miss the internationals, but also Tottenham's league
game and close season tour. Hennessey is also injured, but Rodrigues is
needed by Leicester City, in their bid to avoid relegation, for matches
against Ipswich Town to-morrow and Sunderland on Monday. He will be
available for selection against England and Ireland next week. The Welsh
FA have called up two replacements who were both on standby, Graham Moore
and Green. Green joined his colleague is Chester yesterday, but Moore, who
has been on tour with his club in Italy, will not arrive until to-day.
Saturday, 3 May 1969 - Wales 3 Scotland 5:
The bald statement about the British Championship match at Wrexham
to-day was that Scotland defeated Wales for the fiftieth time since the
countries first met in 1876. The full story was that the result emerged
from a game as strange as the environment in which it was played.
