    Just a little help really, this article says “The six Welsh clubs playing in the English league system have previously been dealt with solely by the FAW.”

    Who are they Cardiff and Swansea........?

    I suspect that Chester is more likely to be considered part of Cheshire

    Chester might be very close to Wales, but Cheshire is in England, so it's not Welsh.

    You may as well have said: Shrewsbury, Wellington, or Hereford. They're all in the borderlands, or the Welsh Marches...

    I may well have done had I thought of them, but I just questioned Chester, what with the ground being in Wales like. :afro:
