Diolch Will, not sure why I did not think of the e:book option tbh! 😂👍 - it would be nice to get a hard copy all the same 👍
Will Hayward@WillHayCardiff

@GavinMPrice Ooof. I’ll check with the publisher. The e-book might be the best bet. Thanks mate

@Transport_CBR - why are your buses suddenly so crazily hot inside with no aircon. It’s unhealthy and dangerous. An elderly gentleman almost fainted this afternoon. That's 4 buses this week with the same issue. It’s actually quite dangerous for people’s health.

I traverse the question of the need for our major political parties in Wales to make the case for a Welsh national cricket and Olympic team here: @sportsdiplomacyunwrapped/note/p-189211964?r=38w1km&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@sportsdiploma

A very enjoyable, nostalgic read - BUT why is there no discourse on the need to explore the possibility of a Welsh national T20, ODI and - eventually - test team. That's how you guarantee overseas visiting teams and a greater profile for Cymru on the world stage 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🤝🏏🤝🌐

If to be a young Glamorgan supporter was to learn about the nature of Welsh society and community, it was also to draw on a crowd steeped in knowledge of the game ✍️Mark Drakeford wp.me/p8Mk4U-1hiS

I am so excited to announce my book "Who Cares About Wales" will be out this Friday! What is even more exciting is the reviews. When you pour a year of work into 95,000 words you start to question if what you have written is any good. I am so grateful for @MattChorley, Kiri Pritchard-McLean, @mrrobosborne, Richard Sambrook, David James and Katharine Viner for taking the time to review the book as well as to @carolvorders for penning the foreword. The book dissects how the people of Wales have been relentlessly failed by their own Government in Cardiff Bay, and by politicians in Westminster. It calls on us to demand better. But to do that we need to really understand the problems and then use our anger to force the changes that are needed. This book explains to you why the person you should be angry with is the politician in the suit, not the migrant in a boat. You can order book now from Y Lolfa or wherever you get your books.

📣 New Article launch 🏃‍♀️🏏 The Open Political Goal of 2026 With the May 2026 Senedd election looming, I ask a provocative question: Should Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 back its own Olympic & cricket teams? Olympic sovereignty = soft power. Cricket rep = 🌐 visibility. open.substack.com/pub/sportsdi...

@Bankwest I'm a new customer that can't get into your app or website. You’ve a pop up making me call you to resolve it but I gave up after on hold for 1h 3 mins - not a great start to customer service & still ‘locked out’ - hugely frustrating waste of time. Doom loop, plus no DMs

Thanks Tracey that's appreciated and means a lot coming from you 👍🙏 - just trying to balance a ‘brand’ that is credible and covers ‘serious’ issues but does not take itself too seriously or might be seen as ‘stiff’ / ‘pretentious’ 😂🤓👍
Tracey Holmes@TraceyLeeHolmes

@GavinMPrice I like it Gav👍

Really enjoyed this pod and have a lot of time / respect for what @DimitriBatrouni is saying. That said, while it’s important to focus on the future👏, we should still be asking a tough question: why has it taken @NewportCouncil so long to support professional sport in our city?
1912 Exiles: Newport County podcast@1912Exiles

In Ep264, @DimitriBatrouni argued that Newport's sports fans have stuck with their clubs through some very lean times in recent years - and that this needs to be rewarded with investment into local sports infrastructure. LISTEN NOW! 🎧 1912exiles.com #ncafc 🧡🖤

@ceritheviking Agree Ceri - it's madness. How do Isle of Man, Jersey, Malta, Luxembourg, Croatia etc have teams but somehow in Wales it's impossible? We could and should start with T20 and build.

Given Scotland has created a public holiday out of thin air for the World Cup, then surely your Government could revisit this issue and strongly lobby for a holiday for our national day? It’s an open goal politically and something so important for our culture and outward profile.

Far too late, Twm. Boggles my mind, so sad - we are talking about the 3rd biggest city in Cymru with a great sporting history under existential threat (both codes).
Twm Owen@NewsatTwm

@GavinMPrice @NewportCouncil Long time coming, looks as if it's come to late. Professional rugby in Newport has essentially been smothered in ill fitting Dragons jersey and, I hope I'm wrong on this, the football club looks to be heading out of the Football League.

Yes, it’s baffling why it's taken so long - no other business brings so many visitors on a regular basis to the area (especially in winter) or puts the city on the map. But yes, the situation in EFL 2 is looking precarious and a big worry (existential potentially) 🥺
