While all the signs, managerial and administrative, were that de Glanville, Bath's captain and centre threequarter, has the job long-term, conceivably up to and including the 1999 World Cup, the new captain was less sanguine.
De Glanville, whose five years in the national squad have included more appearances on the bench (22) than caps (16), said: "I hope to bring a positive attitude to the way we want to play the game and to the way the squad environment develops.
As indicated in The Daily Telegraph yesterday, de Glanville was always the first choice of Rowell, the national coach and, effectively, the management voice, though that particular post has gone missing in the present England set-up.

 Phil Deglanville - England Rugby Player - Rugby-Heroes.net
Nicknamed "Hollywood" because of his good looks, Bath's Phil De Glanville might have become just another pretty boy ex public schooler having a lark on the rugby field, a hit with the ladies, but nowhere to be found when the going got tough.
However, Phil was actually nothing like that and harboured a competitive edge that was as sharp as a razor blade, earning the reputation as a wholeheartedly honest player for whom substance always came before style.
Though an excellent finisher, Phil's main strength was his "thou shalt not pass" style of tackling and he was never afraid to put those Hollywood looks on the line for the sake of his team.

While Carling prospered between 1988 and 1996, de Glanville, his direct rival, and a man many thought worthy of being first choice on playing ability alone, grew cold with 21 games spent on the subs' bench and few chances before finally earning a crack at international rugby.
