    Ok it's Oswestry which makes sense I guess.

    Llansaintfraid, north east Wales.
    Their chairman branded them Total Network Solutions (TNS) when he bought them, after his company. They merged with another team and re-branded The New Saints, to stick with TNS.

    It's in Oswestry, midway between Wrexham and Shrewsbury. I have good memories of european cup winners cup matches under the floodlights at Ninian Park

    Seem to have a difference of opinion here. As far as I can see they play at Park Hall Stadium, Burma Road, Oswestry, SY11 4AS, which is about 10 miles from Llansaintfraid. This could be important should we ever play them away!

    Unlikely unless the 4 Welsh Football League clubs are allowed back into the Welsh Cup.

    Or we all get kicked out of the Football League.

    Can't say I'm fussed about going to some old tin pot ground in the middle of nowhere. Just like I can't be bothered about going to Swansea.

    I think they've moved a couple times as their name has changed.

    Just crossed my mind I hadn’t seen the token woman referee this season.

    She’s retired from refereeing to become the manager of the select Group Women’s Professional’s game.

    Just watching Tamworth v Udders.
    Tamworth playing some decent stuff.

    2 mins before half time, a big blunder by the udders 'keeper.
    If he hadn't tried to punch it, the ball would have gone straight in from the throw and no goal.

    After Ten Hag spending half a billion, £15M to get rid of him, £8M for Amorim and the same for his backroom staff, I doubt they'll have the cash to buy him.

    Anyone else watching Wales Women?

    1.1 at half time v RoI. Good goal for Wales to go ahead but a speculative long shot came off the bar and in off the Wales keeper's head for the equaliser.

    Tight game but Ireland dangerous down the flanks.
