Dai and Ruth are back again to have their weekly discussion about Welsh football, and any issues which have arisen! This week, Loren Dykes retiring takes the opening portion of the show as we discuss her career, contributions to Welsh football both on and off the field, as well as what the future may hold for Loren. Sticking to the women’s football theme, we also mention Helen Ward’s new club.

Following that we discuss the announcement of a friendly for the mens team ahead of Euro 2020, against the Albanians. The FAW announced the game this week as a “send off” for the team, and it will be held at the Cardiff City Stadium on 5th June. The pair then talk through the recently released FAW plans for a return to football for the Welsh League, as well as what constitutes “elite status” in both men and women’s football in Wales.

The bulk of the pod is spent talking through the transfer window, the players who have moved with a Welsh angle, as well as the business of Cardiff, Wrexham, Swansea and Newport. Jonny Williams, Ben Woodburn and Rabbi Matondo get mentioned. Podcast links below!
