Really sad after so many years, but I think I’m finally done with Twitter. I can’t be a part of this. Hopefully, the Welsh football community can migrate to a healthier platform. Diolch pawb. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

This is why TNS success is good for the Cymru Prem.

🚨 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Wales will finish season in the Top 50 on the Country Ranking and have FOUR teams in the European competitions in season 2026/27! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 The New Saints defeated Astana, and added +0.500 points to Wales, which was enough to overtake Georgia, and move up to 49th place!

Sad to hear that one of north Wales’ most iconic grounds has been refused a safety licence by the council. Cae Banana, Llysfaen.

200 caps for Wales and Wales U21 physio, Dave Rowe. Great achievement 👏.

What a fantastic achievement by my amazing husband @DaveRowe292 . Involved in 200 games for Wales. Know your value Rowey, it’s huge. Well done! Love you.

Teams work our new system out at HT. We’re open, it’s risky, high intensity football. But let’s keep perspective. It’s a decent point with a new manager in a quasi-friendly. Iceland played well 2nd half.

I’d like us to keep it tight 2nd half. But that’s not going to happen so enjoy the ride. 🎢

Don’t tell me that Harry Wilson isn’t good enough to start for Fulham.

If we’re going to pass out from the back tonight, that’s a lot of pressure on Ward, and 2 very young midfielders in James & Cooper.

Absolutely incredible. An admin error from the FAW means six players from the squad that was named are unable to play tonight. Those who weren't registered to face Iceland last month affected. No injury issues for the likes of Rubin Colwill or Owen Beck. @YClwbPelDroed

Speak for yourself, Danny.

The International Break. Not a single football supporter wants it. Its a bureaucratic imposition on us that we are just told to accept by invisible overlords. All sport media make out out its normal. They don't like football supporters much anyway unless they are "subscribers".

With Cymru Prem increasing from 12 to 16 clubs, will the Cymru South/North stay at 16? And does that mean we’ll have 4 more clubs at Tier 3? @CymruLeagues

The BT Champions League goal show was the best. TNT have replaced expert analysis with banter.

James Horncastle and James Richardson getting awards in Italy and pulled by TNT Sports for Joe Cole and Matt Smith. Feels like there's few industries where merit matters less sometimes.

Welcome, disciples. This is the altar now: Bellamy-ball. mirror.co.uk/sport/football/…

Welcome to Wales' Bellamy era: tactical fluidity, slim-fit trousers and hope 

Craig Bellamy secured his first win as the new head coach of the Wales national team with victory over Montenegro arriving after a draw with Turkey in the Nations League
