There has always been a resentment of many supporters of English based clubs regarding Welsh teams playing in English leagues. This project has escalated the opinion and FSA recognise this and have asked the FA and EFL to concider the supporters opinion before reaching a decision. If the FA and EFL don't do this the ill feeling will only escalate and come to a head later on. If the FA and EFL listen to the opinion of the majority of supporters they will turn down the request. It's then up to the four clubs if they want to withdraw from the English pyramid, which would never happen, but there would still be much ill feeling. |

Agreed. Throwing money away is the main reason we have problems with P&S, entirely down to shambolic ownership of the last 8 years. Hopefully the new lot will be far more understanding and knowledgeable of British football. |

It all seems very strange to me, is Williams to make a decision after watching one match. Granted the video scouts would have prepared a dossier and there would have been stats included, but to make a decision on one final match seems odd. |

Yes and ironically the tax on company profits doesn't come to Wales. |

Caernarfon Town
Following their own European journey last summer, Caernarfon also issued a statement on social media asking for further details on the project.
The Cofis would not have enjoyed their European adventure if the proposed plans were in place for last campaigns competition, leaving fans with the worry of missing out in future to the EFL clubs.
“Following the recent press release by the FAW regarding Project Cymru we wish to make it clear that, whilst the club is open to receiving more information regarding the initiative, as far as we are concerned, no official vote involving the clubs has been taken about it nor the proposed new Welsh League Cup.
We will not be making any further comments about Project Cymru nor the League Cup until we receive definite details from the FAW of what it will all look like,” said the clubs social media post. |

Barry Town United
The first club to issue a statement to supporters were Barry Town United, with a social media post reading;
“In September 2024, representatives from the Cymru Premier League clubs convened with the Football Association of Wales (FAW) and, after deliberation, collectively agreed to pursue further exploration of the Project Cymru proposal.
As a club, we left the meeting with the understanding that this is still in the exploratory phase, and that further details would be provided to the clubs before we take a formal position on the initiative.
We wish to reassure our supporters that we have not yet given our unequivocal support to the proposal. We are awaiting more comprehensive information and responses to the questions we have raised, which we will share with our members once clarified.
We recognise that this matter is likely to spark considerable discussion within the club, and we welcome all questions or concerns to be directed to David Cole via email. As more details are made available, we will organise a members’ meeting to engage in a full and open debate on the proposal.” |

FSA chair Tom Greatrex said: “Our view is that there would have been greater value for the clubs and authorities involved in this consideration had there been some level of prior consultation with supporters.
“While there are mixed views amongst supporters on different aspects and potential consequences of this proposal being adopted, there is a broad level of concern for the potential implications for both Welsh and English EFL clubs which might arise.”
Tom urged the FA to give serious consideration to the views of supporters before implementing the proposals and pledged constructive involvement from the FSA in future consultation. |

Is he scouting or going to talk to a player face to face to get him over the line. It just seems strange otherwise. |

Been watching Manchester United v Southampton. Southampton 1-0 up and are by far the better side. Crumbs of comfort after the weekend. |

You admit yourself that you have a tipple now and again, would you call yourself dependant. I enjoy a glass when socialising over dinner or on a match day, would I call myself dependant no. Accept that some enjoy the occasional glass of beer/wine or whatever without being dependant. |

"It’s good to see that common sense has prevailed and with cooperation, agreement and the backing from EUFA and the EFL it’s allowed us to compete in the Welsh Cup once again."
The EFL have not given approval nor has the FA. Currently we do not have permission to take part in the competition and never will unless it is a sanctioned tournament. |

He wasn't the only coach in the last couple of years who turned us down and went to Birmingham. Looking back it seems the coach and their agents did their homework. |
