Two old Welsh League clubs on the way back

[uptonparkgoodbye]

I expect I'll get stick for reporting on non-Welsh Lge matters, but nice to see two old Welsh League clubs looking to get back to the big time. I of course refer to Maesteg Park + Llangeinor. My brother tells me there's a piece in the local press this week saying that both have applied to get into the S Wales Alliance Div 2 for next season. Longway still to go for both, as a further three promotions would be required to get them back to whatever the Welsh League becomes once the FAW butchers have slaughtered our glorious Welsh Lge and got their lbs of flesh. It appears 17 clubs from across the parks structure in the SWFA have applied for promotion.

Out of interest where is the list of applicants?

Always nice to c who is on the up from the grassroots of the pyramid

According to the local paper with me:
Port Talbot - no one
Aberdare - Hirwaun sports
Bridgend - Llangeinor and Maesteg Park
Cardiff & District - Cardiff Bay and AFC Rumney Juniors
Cardiff Combie - STM Sports OB, Fairwater and Tiger Bay
Merthyr - Pantyscallog Village Juniors
Rhondda - AFC Wattstown and Stanleytown
TERV - Caerphilly Town, Church Village, Nelson Cavaliers, Rhydyfelin and Ynysybwl
VOG - St Athan

17 in total

Really good to see more Rhondda sides applying to go up - and great to see some sides from the TERV league applying, I know that Pontyclun are very near and Cwm Welfare were pretty much next door - but its weird to see a town as big as Llantrisant has never really been represented in the Welsh League.
