Silvio Dante Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 Get S4C on rather than BBC. Building to hell of a finish. 15 to go and 3-4, Cov down to 10 men Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBibs Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 Flicked over to catch the end and missed 2 goals in the BBC match! Palmer missed a great chance to make it 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted January 7, 2023 Admin Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 Palmer still a show pony Decent free kick but not a lot else paid off Wrexham GK lucky right at the end flapping badly under his crossbar defending a corner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cov missed a bucketload of chances, Palmer with a particularly shocking miss from close range. Cracking free kick though, and he hit the post with one in the first half too. Gyokeres really is some player. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarrely I think the Welsh commentary helped with the enjoyment (and I learnt the Welsh for “textbook” is “textbook”). KP I thought played well. Goal and assist. It was definitely Gyokeres coming on that changed the game, Wrexham couldn’t live with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-S-M Seagull Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 I really enjoyed that. Should be a great episode on the documentary. Wrexham players were actually dead on their legs yet somehow managed to hold on. That really was impressive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The welsh word for badger literally translates as "earth pig", ladybird is "little red cow" and my favourite is hamster which translates as "fat cheeks"! 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuffle Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 Was a great game and when they went practically to the team we played, Wrexham struggled. Thought KP was very good as he was last week & seems to have finally found a home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my uni days in West Wales I also remember the quite tragic "dim disco heno" (no disco tonight), and "dim parcio" (no parking). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
