I’m a firm believer that football stats don’t tell you everything about a game but looks like #Chairboys dominated this.
Those attacking stats demonstrate that we still haven’t replaced Kone
Would’ve taken a point before the game but need to add a cutting edge if we’re going to challenge higher up

“Given the Panthers’ disgraceful performance at the Africa Cup of Nations, the government has decided to…suspend the national team until further notice..”

Some longer thoughts on Y11 Sport & Media Ltd, whether their purchase of Cardiff can be avoided, and what the future looks like for them at the Arms Park. cardiffrugbylife.wales/2026/01/26/t...
The inexplicable stench of Y11
Even when it comes to Welsh rugby, this last week was packed particularly full of controversy, drama, anger and frustration. From businesses being sold and multi-club ownerships, to Parliamentary S…

Even by WRU standards the mess they’ve created since Monday is astonishing.
We’ve always know that they only care about themselves and their plans, but every time they reveal the grand plan it crumbles almost immediately.
They are not fit to run the game in Wales and it’s getting worse

Just for the sake of accuracy, the rest of us haven’t been sold to Y11 leaving only Dan and Frasier to record😂

Just a reminder to rugby presenters, journalists and pundits.
The potential closure of a rugby club by, effectively, its own governing body *is* a rugby matter.
Please don't report on this kind of issue and then say "but can't we talk about rugby?".
You already are.

I’ve written and deleted about twenty posts now, trying to put into words what the Cardiff ownership decisions means.
I can’t.
It’s the worst possible decision.
I know they want us to give up and accept what they’ve done.
We have to work out how to oppose it as fans, as no one else will.
