He wehi ki te rere te winger o Birmingham City me te rangatira o Swansea na reira ka titiro ki a raatau ano mo te tautoko ka haere te roopu Welsh ki te rangi i te Taite. Ko te tukinga a Belgium i Iharaira i whakaritea i te timatanga o te marama o Hepetema kua hipa, i whakaroa ki tenei marama na te pakanga o Gaza. Engari ko te 30,000 waewae te teitei ka āwangawanga ki a Cotterill. Ko te kaitautoko o Swansea me Wales a Ashley Williams e mataku ana ki te rere. I kata ia: "He raru ahau i nga rererangi katoa e haere ana ahau, ahakoa ko hea te waahi". I te nuinga o te wā ka rere au ka hopu au i ngā ringa o aku tamariki tokorua.
