That was crap but also a lot of fun, like all things which annoy Man United and Arsenal fans 😆

So, for what it’s worth, here’s my prediction for the game. Tottenham will be the least shit of the two, but United will win in a penalty shootout in which Onana doesn’t make a save. Try to look surprised when it happens.

Possibly the most stacked of these tournaments yet?

I thought the fifty pages of Morrissey’s autobiography where he gets all pissy about the court case where he was a) called “devious, truculent and unreliable” by the judge and b) Mike Joyce screwed him out of a million pounds was something. He’s been pushed into second place by actual Ian Rush.

🚨 Exclusive 🚨 Ian Rush has put his name to a 90-minute, score-settling, AI musical in the style of Hamilton about his legal battle against a Surrey scaffolding company and a small Wigan law firm, in so doing attacking, among others, Robbie Fowler and Jamie Carragher. 1/7

Does anybody know why there are two slightly different versions of both The Love Cats and Boys Don’t Cry? The difference so slight that there’s no point there being a different version.

Had no idea what to expect from this but it was a rollicking good game, albeit Pwllheli shaded it & made that count in extra time. Why it seems to be the only game in Wales where extra time happens is anyone’s guess. Spent some of this on Buckley’s veranda, possibly the best place in Welsh football.

Ro’n i’n meddwl o’n i wedi gorffen ond…llongyfarchiadau i Bwllheli am ennill Gynghrair Merched Gogledd Cymru, ond dydy’r sgôr ddim yn adlewyrchu ymdrechion Aberriw - diolch i @buckleytownfc.bsky.social am gynnal. taithpeldroed.wordpress.com/2025/05/18/a...

YES PALACE. We can have nice things sometimes.

As it’s come up again, and that it got me my most ever traffic to taithpeldroed.Wordpress.com ever, but it’s buried way down now, it went a little like this… #wxmafc

My kingdom for a Rugby Union referee who can get a TMO decision done in some kind of quick time. The guy in charge of Stormers v Cardiff acting like he’s got all the time in the world.

Tell Laura I Love Her by Ricky Valance doing his bit to represent Wales in this forgotten genre.

While I suspect it’s the necessary way forward…he’ll be missed. One of my top five ever Wrexham players to watch, rare to get someone who was top level to drop down and also have enough in the tank to put their skills on show. Diolch for those 25 minute centre forward clinics #wxmafc

And we go LIVE to Edgeley Park.

Football’s Paula Vennels is updating her LinkedIn - watch out hapless admin staff at various football clubs, if she comes to work for you she’ll have the smell of blood in her nostrils.

If anyone has an interest to helping Your Space, a raffle this summer here 👇

Barcelona v Inter on a channel I’ve got is a reminder of the old days when Man United would do us all a favour by getting knocked out of the Champions League before the group stage & then you’d get a little ITV Euro treat on a school night. Shame I can’t turn the sound down & the Evening Session on.

Online discourse summarised in one picture #wxmafc

If you’re in Wrexham on Saturday and if you’re not getting stuck into loads of bands you could consider going to this. I’ve long been of the opinion that Wrexham has had a gap for a cheap football alternative and now Brickfield are going up to Cymru North maybe it can capitalise.

I can remember the likes of Carlos Edwards leaving Wrexham for free 20 years ago, and people naively saying stuff like “why couldn’t he sign a deal and raise the club money” as if that was how it worked. Stunned that Liverpool fans are saying the same thing now after two cynical decades…

Welsh football stuff - Neil Gibson has kept them up. Thought he did really well to get that job seeing as there’s sniffiness to appointing managers who’ve done well in Cymru Premier. A feather in his cap in getting over the line today.

@focuswales.bsky.social is coming back next weekend. I’m doing Saturday as I’m not allowed out for three days 🤣 I wrote this about last year - not my smoothest bit of writing but hopefully shows just how jam packed it is. You should go if you can. taithpeldroed.wordpress.com/2024/05/11/f...

#wxmafc look a good side when you’re not sitting there expecting something to go wrong 🤣 all seems rather breezy.

Having done this big speech, I have spotted a possible early kickoff on the day of the FA Cup final 🤣
