John Toshack takes over as Wales manager and inherits a mutinous team who start jumping ship. He takes the crucial decision to start again with a new generation of young players.

John Toshack takes over as Wales manager and inherits a team mutinous at his appointment, with senior players jumping ship to avoid playing for him. Football in Wales is at a low-point, starved of success and riven with arguments and rivalries. With few options left, Toshack makes the crucial decision to rebuild from the bottom up and start again by recruiting a brand new team of young emerging talent. They struggle, and Toshack and his team take plenty the flak, but eighteen years and four managers later, four of the players he blooded - Bale, Ramsey, Allen, and Hennessey - would help propel Wales to their first World Cup in 64 years.
