The small Welsh town of Merthyr Tydfil may seem to be an unassuming place for footballing greatness, but the town which brought us legendary Boxers such as Howard Winstone and Jonny Owen as well as the Labour Party and a leader called Keir... Hardie, not Starmer! caused a major sensation in 1987 when they beat Italian side Atalanta at Penydarren Park on September 16th 1987 in the Cup Winner's Cup. The Southern Premier League side, who would go on to play in the Conference (the top division of Non-League football) a few years later surpassed all expectations and the team became overnight legends and were featured in the media as a result. At a time when English sides were banned from Europe, due to the Heysel Stadium tragedy, they not only had the support of the town but also the whole of Wales and much of the rest of the United Kingdom as well! Sadly, from the mid 1990s to 2010, the club dwindled and fell back into the Southern League and in 2010 were wound up after not being able to pay club debts. Reforming as Merthyr Town in 2010, the club rejoined the Southern Premier League in 2015 and, despite a financial scare during the 2017-18 season, have coped well upon their return to this level. However, with rising costs and having finances clipped by the Coronavirus, there is now talk of Merthyr Town following the example of Colwyn Bay and moving to the Welsh League system in time for the 2021-22 season where they would have shorter trips than they currently do to the likes of Metropolitan Police, Walton Casuals, Truro City, Wimborne Town etc. With bigger crowds expected against teams such as Barry Town United, Penybont, Cardiff Met University FC, The New Saints etc. it could make more sense for Merthyr Town to move across. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5M6h8ZUEQk

Wales Rugby Union International Liam Williams felt the wrath of the Twitter trolls on Saturday night, following Wales' last minute defeat to France in Paris, whilst Councillors in Cardiff have also shared their experiences of online and real life abuse. Has trolling gone too far or should it just be accepted as part of life? Should those behind the troll accounts face prison for Malicious Communications and Death Threats? Should more be done to punish these people - Digital Device Bans being one proposed solution? Or, should we just shut down Twitter and Facebook until the trolls are removed and replaced by sensible adults who can chat and debate civilly? ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b913Ju2B-08
