Chris:My legacy won’tbe tainted

CHRIS COLEMAN insists his time as Wales manager will never be tarnished – even if tonight’s friendly against Panama proves to be his final game.

The Welsh boss is in charge for the 49th time with talks over a new contract set to resume after the Cardiff clash against the surprise World Cup qualifiers.

Coleman wants guarantees over his backroom staff before extending an almost six-year reign that includes taking Wales to the Euro 2016 semi-finals.

He said: “If I’m going to walk away and shake hands I know we took it to a level that was unthinkable in the time we did it.

“The experiences we’ve had will never be spoiled. But I’d be more proud in two or four years if the team qualified again.”
