One for the Welsh lads

A Cardiff University football team may win through to compete in the Europa Cup.

Coached by a former Nottingham Forest player, maybe he should return to the City Ground!

I don’t do football but even I know how big a deal it would be.

I did my HNC at UWIC before it became Cardiff Met.

As long as Cardiff city don’t get in, I’m all up for it.

Remember the year Liverpool won the CL (you may of forgot as we don’t like to mention it  ;-)), that year we finished outside the top 4 and had to enter the competition at stage one, that first two leg game was against a TNS a small Welsh team.

They was never going to progress whoever they got, so to them it was the best draw they could get, alot of Liverpool supporters in that team, all got to play at anfield. In stead of some minnow from some tiny EU national.

TNS have come on a lot since those days Steve:

The only fully-Pro club in the Welsh League, win their League almost every year. Might be time to allow them into the English National Legue, see if they make it into the EFL. Cardiff City and Swansea should watch their backs! They also have a thriving academy. Check out their season:     https://tinyurl.com/k9w4x6o

Won their league by 27 points, they will be in the initial rounds of the CL again, then Europa League. They are actually based in Oswestry, Shropshire, and take players and fans from England and Wales.

It’s a funny old game… :scratch:  🙂

I think some scouse mate once told me that Liverpool had won a few Euro games, once upon a time…. :yahoo:  :yes:

TNS have been a good team for a long time, them and Rhyl bossed the league for years, but Rhyl went bust a couple of years back, but are on their way back up. But doubt they will get to the level they was out. Mainly as they was chucking stupid money (for the league) at players. Also think they may of been hit by the tax man iirc.

Years ago me and my lads use to watch Rhyl regularly, they was good to watch, cheap tickets, with a cheap pie and coffee, (anfield it’s £12 for two hotdogs and a coke, only got me once), the issue with Rhyl was the ground is freezing no matter the weather. So come November – March it’s almost unbearable.

I don’t know what it is, but it’s like a wind tunnel.
