City players unavailable for Wales

Last updated : 17 May 2003 By Michael Morris
Daniel Gabbidon, Rhys Weston and Robert Earnshaw do not.

They will be playing for their club on May 25th while their Wales counterparts are Stateside enjoying the rays in California. Baywatch maybe the call for the Welsh players that travel but as well as the City three mentioned there will be no California Dreaming for the other two City players linked to the squad, Lee Fowler or Steve Jenkins or major players like Ryan Giggs, John Hartson, Craig Bellamy and Robbie Savage who have pulled out for various reasons.

Nathan Blake and Robert Page will also be absent because of play of duty.

The ammended squad now includes Christian Roberts, his trip to the USA a  reward for missing out on the play off finals.
