THE DRUID IN THIS ISSUE HISTORY OF THE CYMRU ALLIANCE PART 17 2006-2007 LEAGUE TABLES NEXT WEEK’S FIXTURES FUTSAL RESULTS 6 MATCH PREDICTION RESULTS WEEKEND WASHOUT PORTHMADOG FC Football was virtually wiped out in North Wales this weekend with all Huws Gray Alliance matches falling to the weather. The Welsh National League fared just a little better with only 5 matches in all their leagues and the North East Wales Cup going ahead. The Welsh Cup tie between Goytre of the Welsh League and Caernarfon of the Huws Gray Alliance did go ahead in South Wales though with the home side winning 4-2. MANAGER OF THE MONTH Druids manager, Huw Griffiths, has won the Huws Gray manager of the month award for November. Druids won all their games in November scoring 13 goals and conceding only 2. Congratulations to Huw and all his staff. Is the Huws Gray Alliance getting better or the Welsh Premier getting worse? Is the HGA getting a whole lot better, or do their teams' victories over higher level opposi- tion just reflect how poor the Welsh Premier has become? It has often been said this season that the Welsh Premier - with the exception of title certs The New Saints - has never been as tight. It is true that just a couple of wins can quickly turn a team in the relegation zone into genu- ine top-six candidates. So does that mean teams are improving, the competition is fiercer, or are they all so ordi- nary that no-one can put together a genuine winning run to challenge TNS?

After settling into the pace of the Futsal games Druids had an excellent convincing win in the second game beating Caernarfon 3-0. The third game saw the Druids narrowly miss out on a win, against Conwy, with the final score at 5-4. Following a team talk, the team re-grouped and played some excellent football and then beat Bala by 6-3 in the final game. *************************************** Druids U12s began there second futsal weekend with five fixtures against CPD Porthmadog, Caer- narfon Town, Conwy Borough, Newtown and Bala Town. After having an impressive first week the boys carried on their fine form by picking up 12 points with four wins and one defeat. Game 1 Druids 4-1 CPD Porthmadog - Goal Scorers Ben Williams , Dale Hughes (2) & Callum Forster (2). An impressive display from the boys who dominated possession and had a great num- ber of chances with Porthmadog rarely threatening and only scoring a consolation goal in the last minute. Very quick pass and move football played and very impressive to watch. Game 2 Druids 5-2 Caernarfon Town. Goal Scorers Kian Evans (2) Callum Forster (2) & Dale Hughes. A shaky start saw Druids go down 2-0 in the first half. Caernarfon looked really threat- ening in the first ten minutes with Druids second to the ball and not moving the ball with much quality and looking really flat. Second half was a complete turn around with Druids really stepping the tempo and moving the ball faster and working triangles to turn the game around to win 5-2. Game 3 Druids 11-1 Conwy Borough. Goal scorers Kian Evans (3) Morgan Bagnell (3) Dale Hughes (2) Alfie Owens (2) Charles Minshall. Druids stamped their authority from the whistle by dominating the game from start to finish. Conwy didn't put Druids under any pressure and had to thank their goalkeeper who kept the scoreline from potentially doubling. Fine individual perfor- mances from each player. Game 4 Cefn Druids 4-2 Newtown. Goal scorers Kian Evans, Callum Forster, Charles Minshall & Ben Williams. Another game where Druids started second best with Newtown having the better chances in the first half and went 1-0 up through some brilliant football. Druids responded be- fore half time to level the game at 1-1. Second half Druids stepped up once again and were the bet- ter team looking more threatening and made the game 2-1. Newton equalized on a breakaway goal before two quick goals sealed the victory. Game 5 Cefn Druids 2-5 Bala Town. Tiredness played a huge factor in the result and the perfor- mance and with a few players having to leave for other commitments it didn't help. Bala scored in the first few seconds straight from the kick off. The players confidence dropped and the football become sloppy with no quality on the final ball. Druids equalized before Bala went 2-1 up half time. Second half Druids tiredness showed and Bala scored some great goals. Disappointing result but with playing a lot of football in the day and tiredness playing a big role and on another day the result could have been different. Fantastic overall with 12/15 points gained putting us 19/26 point in the standings, some tough games in Week 3 v TNS, Bangor City and Airbus await Druids but I have full confidence In the players getting the results. With some good results in week 3 we could see our- selves in the Top 4 which would be a great achievement considering the team has been together for 6 months.

    TT1112-98 TT No.98: Justin Holmes - Sunday 13th November 2011; Rhyl v Porthmadog; Cymru Alliance; Venue: Belle Vue, Rhyl; Score: 0-0; Admn: £6.00; Prog: £2.00; Att: 402; Match Rating: 3. The final game on my long weekend stay in Colwyn Bay would be on my way home. The original plan was to take in the Welsh Premiership game between Airbus UK Broughton and Afan Lido. This would not have been ideal, having to rely on Sunday buses to get to and from the ground from Chester, and happily various quirks of fate ensured that the Porthmadog v Rhyl was reversed at late notice, providing a much easier game in take in on my way home, to see two former Welsh Premiership clubs with strong ambitions to return (not always the case in Wales) in "sunny Rhyl". The Belle Vue ground is located about 15 minutes from Rhyl town centre, slightly less from the train station and has quite an impressive and large fascia to the ground. One inside, the ground is almost completely all-seater. Behind the goal where one enters the ground is uncovered seating, with the "Legends Lounge" portacabin type building perched above. Behind the other goal is an all-seater stand. Spanning one length of the pitch is the largest all-seater stand in the ground, whereas on the other side is another all-seater stand, with the only standing areas in the ground either side of it. Unfortunately, all of the covered stands have many supporting pillars to obstruct one's view.

    TT1112-40 TT No.40: Andy Gallon - Sat 10th September 2011; Penycae v Flint Town United; Cymru Alliance; Res: 2-4; Att: 56 (h/c); Admission: £3; Programme: £1 (28pp); FGIF Match Rating: *****. We took a chance on both game and ground, and got lucky. Afoneitha Road proved to be a picturesque enclosure, while the match, featuring four goals in a helter- skelter last nine minutes, was a belter. At kick-off, Penycae had suffered five straight defeats since returning to the Cymru Alliance, scoring one goal and conceding 26 in the process. Nonetheless, Flint's officials were wary because the hosts had brought in the experienced Simon Sedgwick as manager. Sedgwick had an immediate impact - in more ways than one. His dog slipped its moorings just before the teams took the field, and efforts to catch it delayed the start by five minutes. My girlfriend came to the rescue by offering her chocolate bar as bait. With Fido unceremoniously removed, the action could begin. Recently, Penycae agreed a lease with the local authority, and emboldened by this security, have made major improvements to their ground. Hardstanding has been laid around most of the pitch, and the dressing rooms, in a separate pavilion, refurbished. The ground is on the edge of the village, one of many former industrial centres in the Wrexham area, and tucked away down an unmade lane. The pavilion, better suited to cricket than football, is next to a small car park. Two adjacent portable buildings house a kitchen, complete with singing chef, and a hospitality area.

    Here We Go Again... and They’Re Off! After What Seems No Time at All, Public Services Resume This Weekend for February Half Term

    February 2016 InsideNews and information for staff, volunteers and supportersMotion of the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways Here we go again... And they’re off! After what seems no time at all, public services resume this weekend for February half term. Trains will run from Porthmadog to Beddgelert and Rhyd Ddu, leaving Port at 1010 and 1335 - yes, you read that correctly, we’re running an FR headline timetable, but on the Welsh Highland, to give our permanent way team the time needed to complete the extensive winter track renewal programme on the Ffestiniog. These trains will continue to run on Saturdays, Sundays, Wednesdays and Thursdays until the start of a full service on both lines on March 19th. And with the amount of rainfall we’ve had, the rivers are at their best, especially in the Aberglaslyn Pass, so it’s a great time for a trip - make sure you tell all your friends! At the time of writing, the Welsh Highland is having a brand new point installed at Pont Croesor (more details inside). There can’t be many railways that have the confidence to start such a task just ten days before the start of public services, but then there aren’t many railways like the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland...

    1St December 2020 Open Letter Sent by the North Wales Mersey Dee Business Council on Behalf of the Below Listed Organisations CO

    NWMD Business Council C/O 8 The Paddock Prestatyn, Denbighshire LL19 8NB [email protected] 1st December 2020 Open letter sent by the North Wales Mersey Dee Business Council On behalf of the below listed organisations COVID-19 restrictions in North Wales – Impact on Tourism, Hospitality, Leisure and Supply Chains Dear First Minister, We write to you regarding the new COVID-19 restrictions coming into force this Friday 4th Dec across Wales and their negative impact in North Wales on Tourism, Hospitality and Leisure businesses and their Supply Chains. Three areas of note that we need to bring to your attention: 1. Evidence for imposing these further restrictions on North Wales – We understand the Public Health need to impose restrictions on Citizens and Businesses in order to minimise the health impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic, and to tighten or relax those restrictions dependent on the situation and the evidence to support those choices. Following local lockdown restrictions imposed on 4 counties in the North which immediately led into National Firebreak restrictions and then recently the new all Wales restrictions, the rate of positive tests/cases per 100,000 people across North Wales has reduced. The measures put in place by Welsh Government are working and all the most recent publicly accessible data directly shows that. We are not seeing increases in the low level infections areas e.g. Conwy, Anglesey, Gwynedd and in the high instance areas we are seeing reductions e.g. Wrexham. The North Wales Mersey Dee Business Council Ltd is the umbrella body for the private sector in the North Wales Mersey Dee region, representing it with regional stakeholders and national governments.

    Prior to February 1990, There Had Been Attempts by Various Bodies in North and Mid Wales at Forming a Joint League Covering Their Area

    Prior to February 1990, there had been attempts by various bodies in North and Mid Wales at forming a joint League covering their area. Progress was impeded by arguments and disagreements and was about to come to nothing when the FAW intervened by formulating a plan it initialise a fully national League by the 1992-93 season. As an interim measure and part of a structured pyramid system the formation of a North & Mid-Wales premier league was essential and a meeting of interested clubs was arranged on Sunday 12th February at Flint. FAW Secretary Alun Evans outlined the proposals and stated that “there WILL be a North Wales equivalent to the Welsh Football League in the South next season”. Mr Evans continued “Some leagues will be ruffled by what is going to happen but soccer in this region has been stagnating for too long. It is a bold step forward which is being imposed which I being imposed on those who could not previously agree” Welsh Alliance secretary Trefor Lloyd Hughes added “I am wholeheartedly behind this plan and I say that as secretary of a League that is likely to lose most clubs”. Mr Hughes was also active within the FAW in support of the plan. Sixteen of the eighteen clubs present indicated strong interest to join from what would be the new league’s feeder leagues in the proposed pyramid system – the Welsh Alliance, Central Wales League and the Welsh National League (Wrexham Area). The setting up of the new League was administered by the FAW– under the control of Mr Evans – and application forms were circulated to all clubs that voiced interest.

    October 2018 The averaging period used for the following assessment was 1981-2010. October began with high pressure over the south, but a westerly flow affected central and northern areas, bringing relatively changeable weather to much of Scotland. The second week was unseasonably warm due to southerly winds, and many areas were also sunny on the 9th and 10th, but Storm Callum brought wet and windy weather to most parts on the 12th, particularly over the high ground of south Wales. Aer a relatively settled spell with high pressure oen close to the south, a northerly outbreak on the 26th and 27th resulted in a very cold end to the month, with wintry showers on high ground and also locally to low levels on the 27th. The provisional UK mean temperature was 9.6 °C, which is 0.1 °C above the 1981-2010 long-term average. For most regions, mean maximum temperatures were a little above average and mean minimum temperatures were a little below average, reflecting the relatively high frequency of clear skies. Rainfall was below normal in many areas, although north-west Scotland was wetter; it was not exceptionally dry, with 82% of average rainfall overall. For the UK as a whole this was the fih sunniest October in a series from 1929, with 122% of average sunshine, and for East Anglia it was the joint sunniest October in the series (alongside 1959). The UK monthly extremes were as follows: A maximum temperature of 26.5 °C was recorded at Donna Nook (Lincolnshire) on the 13th. A minimum temperature of -8.6 °C was recorded at St Harmon (Powys) on the 30th.
