Scotland B V Wales B International To Mark 15Oth Anniversary.
In 1876, Wales played their first football international, it
was against Scotland.
Scotland won the game 4-0.
I think that there should be a B international match between
Scotland and Wales to mark the 150th year anniversary of this game.
I realise that with the World Cup, and fixture congestion that
a first team international would be difficult.
But, a B international would be of a high enough level to commemorate
the first Wales match. While also allowing both teams to put forward future
players to gain international experience, and to give game time experience for established first team players.
With the World Cup coming up, it is difficult for Scotland
to put forward young players in the upcoming first team friendlies.
A B international match would allow Scotland to put forward
future stars for international experience, in preparation for the next cycle of qualification matches after the World Cup.
The game could be played in Scotland, in cities like
Aberdeen, Dundee, Glasgow, Inverness, or Edinburgh.
Or the game could be played in Wales, in locations like
Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, or Wrexham.
The advantage of a B international is it could allow young players for future qualifications to be given early international experience.
It could
also allow Scotland, and Wales to give game time to their established
internationals that are not playing lots of times for their club sides.
