No room for error, bellows Bale
Gareth Bale has called on Wales to get their Euro 2012 qualifying bid back on track following their 1-0 defeat in Montenegro.[LNB] The Tottenham winger, 21, admits that Wales simply cannot afford another slip-up at home to Bulgaria next month as they hope to end their 52-year wait to reach a major finals.[LNB]Bale told The News of the World: "It's really disappointing for us and we have to put this right.[LNB]"This means we have to beat Bulgaria at home if we are to stay in the mix in this group. That's now really a must-win game for us at home. There can be no excuses and it's now or never.[LNB]"We don't want to be out of contention early on yet again.[LNB]"Of course, this result makes it more difficult for us to qualify. But we still believe we have the players who can make an impact on the group.[LNB]Meanwhile, skipper Craig Bellamy admits that John Toshack's side must get something from their double header against Bulgaria and Switzerland next month to get their campaign back on track.[LNB]Toshack's own position as manager is also coming under the spotlight for the first time in his six years at the helm.[LNB]Bellamy said: "It's not the way we wanted to start the group.[LNB]"But I have experienced this a number of times, starting with a defeat. It means the next game is a really big one, one of those must-win matches.[LNB]"We can talk about one or two things that happened out there, but in the end we have finished without a point from our first game in the group again ... and it is something we have to handle.[LNB]"It's familiar territory; we have been down this road before. To start a set of qualifiers with a winning start really gives you confidence for the rest of the group matches."
