Can't see many games being on today.
Hammered down a lot yesterday in Llantwit so not overly hopeful

I wonder how the clubs who absolutely refused midweek fixtures earlier in the season are fairing now they are having to play lots of midweek fixtures.

Unbelievable Jeff, it's Saturday morning again and still three and a half hours to kick off and the number of Ps in the fixture lists is growing once more. No surprise who the home teams are though.

Season may need to be extended again, maybe July FAW need to start building 3G pitches for everyone instead of buying already multi-millionaire first team footballers freebees like Beats headphones  ,giving away loads of Corporate match Tickets (again to the super rich) the weather is never going to get better lets be honest, the past 5 years have been so bad, i cannot remember it ever being so bad  3G pitches like them or hate them are the only way forward. Is it so unreasonable for the FAW to get involved and start floodlighting grounds and putting in 3G surfaces. They could get large corporate companies on board like Coca-Cola, Adidas, Nike, Asda's, Tesco's, Pepsi etc etc to invest into a pot of money, and when the grounds are developed put large company signs up within the grounds for advertising plus all the positive press. Say the full upgrade cost £700,000, each WL club 48 clubs, that would be £33.6 million. Sanchez yearly wage is 20 million plus Makes a mockery really, it appears from a distance that the FAW just cant be bothered, (maybe I am wrong and behind the scenes they do have a development plan) when just 200 miles away you have individual players getting paid over 20 Million a year. |

7 matches on out of a possible 23 in the SWAL today. Total washout

There was lots of talk about massive investment by the FAW after the success the Wales team had - The have just announced a £1.6million profit that does not take into account the qtr & semi final rewards that they obviously received, and all of that after their "jolly's" all around the World, lets face it you could be a distant cousin of an FAW Council Member and you could fly off to Paris for a few days at our expense !!!! 3G like it or not is the only way forward.

easy to have a dig at FAW, but how would you spend the £1.6m? Not that many 3g pitches you could build with that
Truth is too many Welsh football fans pur their money into English FA by supporting the big English clubs, so we can't complain when FAW has less to spend than the English FA.

The 2017 Champions League Final was also a huge financial success for FAW. They’ve mugged us clubs off. The bunty is being chucked into women’s football by FAW. And lavish expenses

Maybe people would say that it is time for Women's football being given a boost after years of being overlooked. Their performance yesterday in holding the cash laden English team to a draw was incredible.

Don’t forget the nonsensical spends on utterly pointless trip after trip overseas for average Welsh League 20 somethings to play futsal!

And lavish expenses I've been involved with women's football in Wales for 6 years, so I'd love for you to explain to me where this money has gone? We have internationals who are still paying to play for their local clubs in the WPWL. |

And lavish expenses Why would the FAW earn loads of cash from the Champions League? It was held at a WRU owned venue. The FAW own F All no stadiums, perhaps a few offices. |
