With my Welsh Premier League virginity now only a distant memory, I make my way west to
Carmarthen for my third match of the season. Carmarthen Town are the perennial mid-table finishers
of this league, although recent seasons and form so far suggests they could be in the midst of a
relegation battle.
Day Trip To Bangor Rhyl Bangor City 0-3 HJK Helsinki (13-07-11) Champions League Qualifier "Oh my
God, I've married a nutter" said my wife as I diverted the car towards Farrar Road, home to Welsh
Champions, Bangor City FC. It seemed like the most natural thing in the world to have a cheeky look
around, even though, granted, it was 24 hours before the match - which was being played.
That the English Premier League show arrive at a showdown like this. Today is the final day of
the season in the Welsh Premier League, and the two teams at the top of the table, Bangor City and
The New Saints, are playing each other for the league title. Going into the match, TNS are a point
clear of Bangor, meaning that a draw will lift them the championship, but a home win will take the
Welsh championship to Bangor for the first time in over a decade and a half.
