The @FAWales need to take a hard look at themselves. How can they advertise a fully working sensory room for tonight’s game (with the viewing room of the pitch) and then inform us a few hours before kick off this isn’t available due to it ‘being sold to hospitality’. 1/2

@NoelMooney13 All sounds positive on paper, and it’s encouraging to see a strategy for improving grassroots facilities, hopefully all LAs buy in. Facilities remain the biggest barrier to growth. But concerning there’s no mention of match officials. A key stakeholder with no clear plan. ⚽

@superkeeperno1 Not sure what the issue is — I asked a genuine question as I’m clueless why you’ve been out so long. I’m not local to Baglan so I’m not exactly sure what “the Arms” is, but I’ll be sure to ask you the same when I see you at a game soon 🤷🏻‍♂️ All the best for the rest of your season.

@andy_gulley @ArdalSouthern Agreed - didn’t appreciate the mobbing behaviour of airport at half time but I do think they had a point regarding the field being awful, that said the referee also folded to their pressure. If he was able to play to half time safely then why not to the conclusion of the game

@SWGroundHopper @ArdalSouthern Airport were never in the game, 2nd to everything and at halftime their bench had a hissy fit with the ref and managed to get the game called off, a game they weren’t interested in playing when they turned up tbh

This game has sadly been postponed by the Referee at Half Time due to worsening conditions.

Taffs Well take on Cardiff Airport at the Gentles Construction Stadium tonight, 13th v 7th in the Elite Stands Ardal Southern South West table, kick off 7.30pm. Taffs Well earned an important 2-1 win last week at Treherbert Boys & Girls Club, taking the lead on 38 minutes through Harry Gidman from an assist from Captain Jac Simpson. However the home side equalised a minute before the interval to make it all square. However Gidman was on hand to score after great work from Jae Robinson on 55 minutes and this is how the game remained for Taffs Well to take the points. The previous week Taffs Well had draw 2-2 at home to Cardiff Corinthians. Lee Price had put Taffs Well ahead on 41 minutes after good work from Robert Jones, before the visitors equalised a minute later. Taffs Well them found themselves 2-1 behind on 48 minutes before Sebastian Thomas saved the day to earn a point equalising on 63 minutes from a Louie Crowe assist. Cardiff Airport will be looking to address a losing streak having lost their last 6 games. Last weekend they lost 5-0 at home to Clydach to follow a 4-1 defeat the previous week at inform Ynysgerwn. A goal down after just 5 minutes Airport equalised through Scott Dabusco on 9 minutes from a Callum Huggins assist. However goals on 11, 25 and 52 minutes sealed their fate. In their previous two games they had been unlucky not to pick up any points, losing by solitary goals to both Penrhiwceiber Rangers and Evans & Williams.

@nigeljbircham @Taffswellfc As a neutral, the result means nothing to me. The roll and bounce at half-time were no different to kick-off. It shouldn’t have started. Fans out of pocket, pitch ruined, and both teams left with a mess to sort. Poor decision.

@nigeljbircham @Taffswellfc I don’t agree with you often Nigel but on this one you are absolutely spot on. What concerned me was that he played until half time, if the pitch is unplayable or player safety is at risk that it shouldn’t have been forced through to half time.

@NewportUtd This isn’t rumour, Ralph. The CEO has told you he wants a separate futsal association. If they can make it work, it’ll happen—but what works for the FAW and what works for futsal are very different worlds. Futsal success isn’t a priority for the FAW. @NewportUtd @NoelMooney13

Rumours say that in its new plans FAW wants to remove futsal from its structures and leave it to clubs to form their own association to run the sport. If this is true, it would be one of the biggest failures in FAW’s history. They are simply walking away from it. ⚽️
