Treharris made it to us. Farce if you ask me, some teams would have probably made a different decision if say for instance it was a televised welsh cup game they were travelling to. Cop out merchants well done Treharris on not dodging the matter in hand.

I've been told that it's not the 1st time Haverfordwest have refused to depart Pembrokeshire during bad weather. During their days in the Welsh Prem they refused to head to TNS in snowy conditions - they later had the book thrown at them. BTW, Dyfed-Powys Police only advised folk not to travel unless necessary on Sat afternoon which was hours after they were due to depart for Penybont.

That’s funny as Dyfed-Powys Police advised the night before not to travel unless necessary. The tweet went out at 2145 hours on Friday and again at 1158 hours on saturday

OK Mr Shilling you say Friday night, I saw it for a 1st time Sat afternoon via Pembrokeshie Herald Twitter.............but is it also incorrect that its not the 1st time they've refused to travel + on the previous occasion when Welsh Prem members they lost 3pts + fined?

Absolute snowflakes and embarrassing excuses. So the Scarlets played Saturday night at 5.30 representing their region. 8000 spectators miraculously got to the game with a lot of support no doubt coming from further west. Nobody drowned or dissapeared.The teams that quite literally hid behind a weather warning need to take a long hard look at themselves. They’ve been found out by the teams that did travel from the same areas. Teams who wanted to play football and honour their fixtures. Teams from lower leagues in some cases. In a nutshell they’ve taken the piss with a capital P and should hang their heads in total shame for making a laughing stock of themselves.

just as a quick counter to all the butch testosterone bull about snow flakes and manning up
somebody died in those floods in West Wales and the Police advised against travel
if they didn't fancy it, that's their call and I personally couldn't call them out on it
It was a football match, not Rorke's Drift.

I’m guessing Mr Shilling is referring to old money (too young to remember that). Don’t know about the previous refusal to travel as I have more important things to worry about. I had friends and colleagues that were risking their own safety because of those daft enough to drive through floods for things that weren’t important. The news said that the flooding in Carmarthenshire was a one in 30 year event, so I wouldn’t worry about the game being called off for that extent of flooding again.
