Hughes faces Wales axe

Bobby Gould could be poised to break with the past today by signalling the end of Mark Hughes' illustrious Welsh career.

The Chelsea striker, who made his debut against England at Wrexham in 1984, has scored 12 goals in his 59 appearances. But that all looks likely to end when Gould announces his squad for the opening World Cup Group Seven qualifier against San Marino on 2 June.
