Thanks for the update Bill,a decent set of friendlies there IMO

Rhyl on a Sat. Straight in my basket.
-
Rhyl away will be a tough test I think, arent they still full time?

No, I don't think they ever have been. In fact, they were relegated from the Welsh Premier to the Cymru Alliance last season, even though they were one of the "big" clubs (sound familiar?) with a ground fit to host European football.

Three Welsh outfits and some good days on the beers. You can't say fairer than that. Just give us Uniteds kids to complete the set.

The last time some of us went to Rhyl fc was to watch Bangor v Gloria Bistrita in the intertoto cup in 2003

Who's the third Welsh team after Rhyl and Wrexham?

Chester's pitch is partly in Wales I suppose.

Exactly. And they hate being called Welsh too. #banter.

Now then, I recall vaguley seeing a map of the Chester stadium, and its only part of an office in Wales, the whole pitch is in jolly old England.

Actually, it's the other way round. The back of the main stand and the car park on the main stand side is in England, the whole of the pitch and virtually all of the spectator area is in wales. In theory, the teams may get changed in one country and then run out on the pitch and play in another!

I think the logic was that in order to be eligible for the English FA (& incidentally Cheshire FA) the club's registered office had to be in England even if the rest of the premises was in another country.

That may be what the official line is however the land was extremely cheap being on the Dee flood plain, at the end of a light industrial estate on the outskirts of town and opposite a tip! ::) :D
