    • Former Fulham and Coventry manager Chris Coleman has been officially appointed as the new coach of the Wales national side.

    The 41-year-old succeeds his former international team-mate Gary Speed, who tragically passed away in November 2011.

    The Football Association of Wales refused to be rushed into a decision regarding a new boss, but they have now turned to Coleman.

    With a 2014 World Cup qualification campaign looming large on the horizon, it is important for stability to be returned to the camp.

    • Sam Ricketts would love Ryan Giggs to be installed as Gary Speed’s successor as Wales manager.

    But Bolton’s Welsh international defender admits the vacancy has come too soon for the United legend.

    Reds boss Sir Alex Ferguson recently rejected an approach from the Football Association of Wales to hand the Old Trafford legend his first managerial appointment.

    • Gary Speed's assistant manager has rejected the choice of Chris Coleman as the country's new boss, sparking an unseemly and bitter battle at the heart of Welsh football.

    Dutchman Raymond Verheijen has thrown his weight behind the appointment of either Ian Rush or Ryan Giggs in an attempt to 'protect' Speed's legacy.

    And that has left Football Association of Wales chief executive Jonathan Ford with a major headache ahead of a qualifying campaign for the 2014 World Cup.

    • Sir Alex Ferguson has rejected an approach from the Welsh FA to make Ryan Giggs their new manager.

    The FAW had highlighted the Manchester United legend as their main target when they began looking for a successor to the late Gary Speed earlier this month.

    United boss Ferguson was approached and told that Giggs would only be required in a part-time role so that he could continue to play the club, but the Scot turned down the request.
