CRAIG BELLAMY says he knows the football world is waiting for him to explode – but he is adamant he will not.
The Wales head coach did not bask in the glory of leading the Dragons to top spot in Nations League Group B4 after a stunning start to life in the managerial hotseat.
Bellamy is going to celebrate by taking a couple of days to decompress. He plans to study other coaches and undertake a computer course before World Cup qualifying gets under way next year.
As for the staggering revival he has overseen – three wins and three draws – after taking over a team that were held to a 0-0 draw by Gibraltar in June, he believes he is only just getting started.
Despite a playing career in which one fracas or another frequently erupted around the forward, the question was ‘when’ not ‘if’ he would lose his cool when he was promoted to No.1.
