The fixtures were agreed today for Wales’ Euro’2012 campaign which is now confirming as starting in Montenegro this September and finishing in Bulgaria in October 2011.
For the first time, qualifiers can be played on a Friday night and John Toshack’s men have decided to play 3 of their 4 home games that evening. The exception is the ‘glamour’ game with England that takes place on March 26th next year. The away game at Wembley is on a Tuesday night in September 2011. Wales appear to have delayed those games until Aaron Ramsey returns from his horror injury.
Fans can start planning their away trips (I fancy Switzerland and maybe the first game in Montenegro) but will also be wondering where the home games will be held. Cardiff City Stadium is strongly linked to be hosting the games but can they resist the riches of playing England at Millennium Stadium? Time will tell.
