Pennod 3 Sgorio

-I have a full house

-of guests tonight.

-Malcolm Allen is here.

-Owain Tudur Jones is also here.

-Our special guest tonight

-is Heledd Anna.

-We have to talk about Ryan Giggs.

-We're not sure how it will go.

-He has plenty of success

-as a player for Man United.

-He did well as a Welsh player.

-We don't know

-what he is like as a manager.

-Would you be happy

-as a Welsh player?

-I would be delighted.

-It's a new chapter for Wales.

-We haven't seen what

-his ideas are yet.

-I would be on the edge of my seat...

-..looking forward to

-playing for Wales.

-He is the boss now.

-Ryan Giggs is the new Wales manager.

-Here's what he had to say.

-First of all, congratulations.

-Wales manager. How does that sound?

-Sounds good. Obviously,

-my first role in management.

-What a huge role,

-what a huge responsibility.

-Mixed emotions. Obviously proud,

-nervous but excited.

-Looking forward to March

-and seeing the players.

-With the fans, they're never happy.

-There's this perceived image that

-you did miss a lot of friendlies.

-Throughout my career,

-I had problems with my hamstrings.

-When I played for Wales, it was one

-of the proudest moments of my life.

-My family live in Cardiff and I

-always loved playing for my country.

-Selling out the Millennium Stadium

-against Italy and Germany...

-..I've got great memories

-of playing for my country.

-Taking that into management,

-that's a plus for me.

-I've been in the same situation

-as the players.

-I remember those games, when we were

-both younger. You've aged better.

-There was an excitement

-around that team.

-When you got the ball, people

-were on the edge of their seats.

-Is that the ethos

-you'll instil in your Welsh team?

-I want us to be aggressive...

-..when we've got the ball

-and haven't got the ball.

-Excite fans, make fans

-want to come to watch Wales play.

-A winning team but also an exciting

-team doing it in the right way.

-You've got decent players

-in this squad as well.

-You were a teenage sensation.

-How can you help their development?

-By making things

-organised, enjoyable...

-..pushing the more

-established players...

-..so that they're looking

-over their shoulder.

-That can only improve everyone.

-It is exciting, there's a

-balance of experienced players...

-..and players who are hungry.

-I've been in both situations.

-As a 17-year-old,

-I wanted to be in the first team.

-The experience of having

-Gareth Bale in the squad...

-..and you're looking over

-your shoulder.

-Is Osian Roberts likely

-to retain a role in the set-up?

-It is an option.

-I've not spoken to Osh yet.

-What he's achieved over the

-last few years, and before that...

-..as technical director, is huge...

-..so I'll be speaking to him

-over the next few days...

-..and we'll get together

-and see what happens.

-Ryan Giggs, the new Wales manager.

-What do you think?

-We'll do the next

-interview with him!

-I was a little bit star struck.

-Do you think Osian Roberts will be

-prepared to continue in that role?

-Do you think Giggs will want him?

-Giggs has to try everything.

-He knows Osian Roberts

-has had success.

-Giggs won't want to

-rebuild from the ground.

-I think Roberts would be

-very useful to him.

-It would also be good for

-squad morale.

-You need to bring new ideas

-without changing too much.

-He's also talked about

-picking new players.

-No one should take their

-place for granted.

-I'm sure Osian Roberts will

-have a important role to play.

-If Roberts leaves they have

-to start from the ground up.

-I'm sure he will bring

-some people in.

-Gary Speed and Chris Coleman

-brought in coaches they knew.

-Those guys were able to

-inspire the dressing room.

-Giggs is known for

-being a little quiet.

-He may need someone like that.

-Do we need an inspirational

-figure in the dressing room?

-They will listen to what Giggs says.

-You don't always need somebody

-who is loud in the dressing room.

-Ryan will have the role

-of inspiring quietly.

-These are interesting days.

-We have an item coming up later

-in the series...

-..with Jayne Ludlow,

-the Welsh women's coach.

-Here is what she thought

-about Giggs' appointment.

-Having Ryan involved can only

-be a positive for us as a nation.

-He has 30 years of experience

-at a top-level club.

-The men's team have to keep

-pushing after so much success.

-I will give Ryan my full backing.

-Giggs is the most decorated player

-in the history of football.

-Show us your medals,

-here they are...

-..13 Premier League titles,

-four FA Cups...

-..and two Champions League trophies.

-He played over

-600 Premier League games...

-..and over 150 games

-in European competitions...

-..in a playing career that lasted

-almost 25 years with Manchester Utd.

-He won 64 caps for Wales

-scoring 12 goals.

-He was part of the team that almost

-qualified for the 1994 World Cup...

-..and the 2004 Euros.

-His commitment to Wales was

-questioned on numerous occasions.

-After winning his first cap...

-..it took eight and a half years

-He only won ten caps

-in friendly matches.

-After retiring from

-international football in 2007...

-..he played for his club

-for another seven years.

-Back at United,

-he was a coach under David Moyes...

-..a caretaker manager

-when Moyes departed...

-He has coaching experience

-at the highest level.

-We have been asking your

-opinion on twitter.

-The vote was split

-like the Brexit vote.

-52% were in favour

-of the appointment.

-Our voters think he is the

-right successor to Chris Coleman.

-Everybody's been having

-their opinion aired.

-Giggs will be fine as long

-as the results go his way.

-He has to bring the

-Manchester United wall down...

-..so the fans can see what

-he is really like.

-If he takes time and

-take selfies with fans...

-..and interacts naturally with them

-then he'll be fine.

-His first matches in charge will be

-in a tournament in Nanning, China.

-He needs to get a stable

-position around him.

-He is the leader now.

-He has to enjoy that responsibility.

-Winning games is the end target.

-Manchester United have protected

-their players over the years.

-Ryan Giggs has been in a position...

-..where he didn't have to give too

-much away to the media.

-He will have to change.

-Malcolm is going to be

-replaced now.

-That's all

-for this part of the show.

-Stay with us for Part 2 when we look

-at Saturday's Cup Final and Pendro.

-We'll be right back.

-What's it like working

-with Owain Tudur Jones?

-It was marvellous to see all the

-different kinds of things...

-..involved in football.

-Some footballers get shy

-in front of a camera.

-The ones we've had on

-our programme don't.

-You are dating one of the enemy.

-An exponent of

-the oval ball, no less.

-We have lots of rugby

-on the television...

-..but Rhys also watches football.

-We will be talking to

-you a lot more later.

-Cardiff Met

-take on The New Saints...

-..in the Nathaniel

-MG Cup final on Saturday.

-Welcome to the Cardiff Met campus.

-When I'm not down the Liberty

-screaming at the Swans...

-..I'm here doing my Sport

-Broadcast masters degree.

-Tonight, I'm the one

-asking the questions...

-..to the boys behind me training

-for the cup final.

-It's University Challenge.

-Get it?!

-Christian Edwards, Director

-of Men's Football at Cardiff Met...

-..1st Team Manager and

-senior lecturer in sports coaching.

-Brad Woolridge,

-Cardiff Met FC captain.

-Studying a PhD in Student Well-being

-and Mental Health.

-Emlyn Lewis, Cardiff Met defender.

-Studying a Sport Coaching masters.

-Challenge, not Mastermind.

-The Mastermind music is better!

-Your specialist subject

-is Cardiff Met FC.

-First question.

-What was so special about 2009?

-Swanee, or Christian,

-joined the club.

-I'd always wanted to go there.

-2009 was my first year

-in charge of the football club.

-Is every player in the squad

-a full-time player?

-People think so but, no, everyone

-works, everyone's in the university.

-How often do you train

-during the week?

-Twice.

-How many times a week

-do other clubs think you train?

-I think they believe we train eight

-days a week, a first for any sport.

-Do you have to be a student

-to play for Cardiff Met?

-You don't have to be

-but you must have a past connection.

-Kyle McCarthy and Josh Barnett

-aren't current students...

-..pursuing academic work,

-but they've been here for years...

-..so they claim a place in the team.

-Can you sign new players?

-We can but only through

-the university system.

-We only accept students

-to play for us.

-How noisy is Emlyn on the pitch?

-How noisy is Emlyn on the pitch?

-

-Emlyn is noisy wherever he goes.

-He's pretty vocal.

-Is it true that you were the farm

-sheepdog back home on the farm?

-When I'm home for Christmas

-or over the summer...

-..I still chase the sheep

-when Dad's on the quad.

-Why is Cardiff Met's defence

-so good?

-Everyone will point to Swanee...

-..but I think myself, Brad and Will

-work well together as a back three.

-Brad and Emlyn have done well...

-..but I think it's the fullbacks

-and the goalkeeper.

-What can the club achieve?

-Last year we missed out

-in the final.

-We'll try and achieve that.

-Do you think you can win the cup

-on Saturday?

-Of course we can win.

-Whether we do is another question.

-The squad is strong,

-it's big in size...

-..and I believe we can win the cup.

-I think the boys are ready for it.

-We're friends and when you win with

-friends, there's nothing better.

-The final score is...

-We'll find out on Saturday.

-Emlyn didn't pass there.

-That's just like him on the pitch!

-They've had a great season.

-They aren't playing as well as they

-did at the start of the season.

-I think they will be confident.

-It could be a shock.

-We have to talk a little about

-the action from Saturday as well.

-Joe Phillips scored a perfect

-hat-trick for Aberystwyth.

-He scored with his right foot,

-left foot and his head.

-We've looked back in the archive.

-Who is this doing it

-for Bangor City in 2003?

-Is it the player with powerful legs.

-Is it the player with powerful legs.

-

-I was talking about the goalscorer.

-Osian Roberts was the coach of

-Port when I scored those goals.

-He was furious.

-Is he always showing off?

-No, he's great to work with.

-Not so great a week for

-this guy from Carmarthen.

-Clayton Green scored an own

-goal 52 seconds after coming on.

-I may have scored

-a perfect hat-trick...

-..but I've also scored

-two own goals in a game.

-It can happen to anyone.

-It happened against

-Rangers in Scotland.

-I had to cope with

-50,000 fans laughing at me.

-It's time now for

-another episode of Pendro.

-This week it's the players and staff

-Whitchurch Pendro Challenge.

-He's not going to reach.

-Oh, what a great save!

-Look at that. That was special.

-That was delivered on a plate

-with a knife and fork.

-Truly hopeless.

-There's no other word for it.

-My grandmother

-would have saved that.

-Sack tomorrow morning.

-If your team fancies

-a go on Pendro...

-..get in touch with us via

-Twitter, Instagram or Facebook.

-You have challenges on your show.

-We discovered that we are

-both very competitive.

-I sulk if I lose.

-I don't know how I fell there.

-That looks unfair.

-Once the whistle is blown

-all bets are off.

-This girl really does sulk.

-We have a surprise for you.

-It is your birthday.

-I thought everybody would like to

-see you starring on Rownd a Rownd.

-We're sorry to put you through this.

-Have you come here to say

-you're dancing with Megan.

-You didn't want to do it.

-That's my hair.

-Why did you do that?

-That was 10 years ago.

-I started when I was eight.

-I really enjoyed It.
