So is Footy adventures ever planning to go global? I mean there are a lot of stadiums out there and I am sure most clubs in my country of Zimbabwe will say yes
Get yourself up Bangor 1876 Sam, fan owned, fan founded and the story of the club after the shambles that became Bangor City is shocking. They also have the current shortest distance in the UK between their home ground and their nearest rivals, even shorter than the two Dundee clubs. Great that you’re looking at the Welsh league. Thanks mate!
Nice to see you cover the Welsh leagues mate! Get yourself to one of the big clubs like Bangor, Caernarfon or Colwyn Bay in the North or Barry, Abertstwyth or Haverfordwest in the south if you want more crowds.
@@webbofysgethin2127 not a 100% sure mate. Think the core fanbase have created 1876 due to what happened with Bangor City few years back. I think they play a couple of league below the prem at the minute so they’re not far from getting back.
A good list of Welsh Clubs to visit: Cefn Druids - (oldest club in Wales) Caernarfon Town - (best fanbase & stadium in the Welsh Prem) Colwyn Bay or Llandudno FC - 2 clubs on the rise bach to the Welsh Prem
Sam, thank you so much for all the videos you make about English, Scottish, Irish and now Welsh football. You are without a doubt the best youtuber with the best content about British football. Your videos about modest and little-known clubs for the general public are a real gem. Keep it up! 🏴🏴🇮🇪🏴⚽♥
Just love your videos and your enthusiasm..I love watching the smaller teams videos.i am a hartlepool fan but managed to see a berwick game recently and the fans were brilliant
That close to Shrewsbury Town in League One. The English Club that has won 6 FA Cups.... Welsh FA Cups that is(A record for an English League Club). The site of the former picturesque Gay Meadow home to Shrewsbury Town for 97 years 1910-2007. There is still a wall left from the old Wakeman End also know as the Cecil Duffel Terrace. Then of course the new Montgomery Waters Meadow built 2007 home of the first rail seated end out of the 92. I'd gladly show you around👍🏻 Other interesting things 67 times winners of The Shropshire Senior Cup(The oldest cup competition in the world). Arthur Rowley played and manged then and he's The English football Leagues all time record goalscorer 434 goals. 👍🏻
Always love how much access you get to clubs during your visits. You see lots of match day vlogs and stuff, but they very rarely have interviews with staff and players like yours do
What's different about this channel is the emphasis on the game rather than clubs, and the variety. Just over a week ago Sam was at Ibrox for a European night and here he is at a non-league game.
What a lovely video! Easily one of your best! Clubs that defy borders? Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver in MLS. But seriously you gotta pop over summer 2023 and check out Canadian Premier League side Halifax Wanderers (because they are closest to you) or maybe spend a day or two checking out the three Ontario clubs Ottawa, Hamilton and York (because you can get to each of them via transit fairly easily).
I've considered making a trip to this club but never got round to it. Saw the old pre-merger TNS play against Levadia Marduu and KP Polonia Warsaw in UEFA matches at Wrexham a few years ago.
credit to the loyal supporters within or outside Oswestry(numerous titles) - the town should have a breakaway team to get back into the English pyramid(better off with far bigger support) - the New Saints should be playing in a town on the Wales side(no disrespect).
You should head to Llanelli Town in Carmarthenshire, have a pint in the Jock Stein Lounge and find out about his playing days here. No game until 4th November though, Carmarthenshire derby.
Hey Mate , first great channel love your visits and storys of football grounds ...I just wanted to pass an idea your way , that woild be a fantastic addition to you channel , and answer a question that im sure , goes through the thoughts of many Footy Fans..Thats the history as to why Football clubs wear the colours they do,, Why do Liverpool wear Red, why do Rangers wear Blue and so on , be great addition if you delved into these and be interesting viewing...Where did the black & white stipes come from at Newcastle or The yellow from Norwich...anyway just an idea , hope you find the question intriguing..
Please ,get yourself down to Caernarfon town ,they used to play in the Northern prem years ago and as a Stockport County fan I have nightmares about our F A cup game but on a visit to the club I now visit quite regularly great atmosphere .
You NEED to get yourself down to Caernarfon mate. Best fanbase in the Welsh Prem. regularly get 600/700 at home games and a very passionate vocal backing of hardcore fans 💛💚
A picture can paint a thousand words just like the almost zero support. The Tns owner has seen a gap in the market with Euro money and Tns being full time gives such an advantage the league is in need of serious help it has become a one horse race. Critical maybe but when you see it live you will understand my POV.
would love for you to come to Merthyr Town FC, another Welsh team that play in the English Pyramid, recently reached the first round proper of the FA Cup for the first time in their history (previously played in it under the name Merthyr Tydfil), and generally have really good facilities for a club that plays in the Souther League South Premier.
Alan Shields Hamilton South Lanarkshire Scotland. Llandudno F.C. Welsh League North at the moment is my suggestion but they have been as high as The Welsh Premier League in recent times. Keep Safe Sam.
Cefn Druids would be interesting particularly with the division between the Chairman and the community. He will gaslight you, but please do your research and report on the true problems within the club.
Would be good to see some more Welsh football, maybe at one of the more proper clubs. Unfortunately due to how TNS became established they are almost universally disliked amongst those in Welsh football.
2:33 I'm not sure that's right. There were 18 churches in Wales that voted to remain part of the Church of England in 1914-15 when the Church in Wales was disestablished.
where was the dancing in tbe streets 🤣 interesting tale of TNS as always on the videos. should come to Newport too, you got Newport County who play in the English league and you have Newport City who play in the Welsh league, you also got Lliswerry who play on the same league as Newport City (ardal South East) also based in Newport. 3 teams within 2 miles of each other.
Great vid Sam, I use to coach at TNS now managing Llanfair United in the ardal north east league (tier 3) would be great if you could come down to a game 👍⚽️
The New Saints are a country from my ancestrial which is England and stadium is also in the country but I am glad to see them playing in Welsh football and one of the primarily reasons is the club is located in the border of England and Wales which is so near,good friends!!!I like this club together with all the respective Welsh clubs daily and ever in this world and other planets,good friends!!!LONG LIVE,THE NEW SAINTS!!!🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️🏋♂️
I would say TNS would same as the Northern Ireland Premier League teams with in turn the NI Premier League would be equal to mid table teams in the Sky Bet League 2 as for the rest of the Welsh Premier i would say there National League North/South
Alan Shields Hamilton South Lanarkshire Scotland I can remember Inter Cable Tel Of Cardiff playing Celtic in The U.E.F.A Cup in season 1996/1997 I think it was in a qualifying round if I remember right When Cable Tel & Tele West where bought over buy N.T.L now Virgin Media they rebrand as Inter Cardiff & them merged with Cardiff Metropolitan University F.C how play in The Welsh Premier Division currently. I would say that The New Saints are the same standard as Auchinleck Talbot & to give an English League comparison King's Lynn Town how are currently top of The National League North I feel that is a fair competition. Keep Safe Sam.
@@MartinAndersenDane Just wish we made more noise, all the singers were spread out. But all of us were blown away by the support your fans showed. All the best
As you're a Liverpool fan, it might be a good idea for you to visit Flint Town United in the Welsh prem as well - it is the birth place of Liverpool legend Ian Rush and he is the club president too!
Great video. Welsh football is fantastic. Definitely check out Welshpool. They had Paul Merson and Chris Kamara play for them around 10 years ago for a game or two, was a segment filmed for Sky Sports on it.
I’m imagining the new saints to be in UEL/UECL, and somehow the draw turns into EPL rep. - SPL rep. - Linfield - The new Saints in one group. THAT would be SO EPIC HAHAHA
The most Intresting team in regards to playing in different countries is Wellington Phoenix a New Zealand club that plays in Australia's A-League they are the only professional club in New Zealand and the only club in the world to play in a league in a different confederation as New Zealand is OFC and Australia is AFC
Footy Adventures thank you for your video. I wanted to ask you about another clubs in Wales, bangor City FC withdrew from the welsh league system in 2021-22 season. Similar to bury FC. i think bury Fc will come back, i wanted to ask you Footy adventures do you think bangor City Fc will also one day come back into the welsh system?
Great video, I would say the level of the Welsh Prem is around step 3 of English non league football. National League or even league two is a step too far.
TNS play some good football but they totally lack identity. I've been to watch games there and the atmosphere is non existent. I don't think the location helps. I think it would've made sense to call themselves Oswestry Town FC but I guess there's reasons why that didn't happen.
What other clubs defy borders???
The Vancouver Whitecaps. Play in the USA first tier but are located in Canada. Also CF Montréal & Toronto FC play in the MLS but are located in Canada
So is Footy adventures ever planning to go global? I mean there are a lot of stadiums out there and I am sure most clubs in my country of Zimbabwe will say yes
Great video looking forward to Wrexham one. Have you called into Cefn Druids FC?
Chester in the National North
Obvious one is Carlisle United and Sheriff Tiraspor of Moldova which has a border of Moldova and Ukraine,good friend Sam!!!🏋♂️

Agreed as a FC United fan I remember you coming to our place.
They'll be dancing in the streets of Total Network Solutions after Sam made a great video about them
And the streets of “Raith” for our Scottish views !!!
As always very informative Sam. That took me back over 50 years. I was stationed at Park Hall Camp in Oswestry when I joined the Army in '69.
Nice to see you cover the Welsh leagues mate! Get yourself to one of the big clubs like Bangor, Caernarfon or Colwyn Bay in the North or Barry, Abertstwyth or Haverfordwest in the south if you want more crowds.
Your pronunciation of the Welsh villages are spot on as well 👍
What's going on with Bangor these days? Is it Bangor City or Bangor 1876 that are the main supported club?
@@webbofysgethin2127 not a 100% sure mate. Think the core fanbase have created 1876 due to what happened with Bangor City few years back. I think they play a couple of league below the prem at the minute so they’re not far from getting back.

Another English club playing in the Welsh League is Bishops Castle Town (Shropshire) who play in The Central Wales League.
I've considered making a trip to this club but never got round to it. Saw the old pre-merger TNS play against Levadia Marduu and KP Polonia Warsaw in UEFA matches at Wrexham a few years ago.
Great video Sam, was nice to meet you yesterday. You've made the lad's day seeing himself in the video!
Met Sam at FC United. Such a nice bloke. 👍⚽
Thanks for my 1 minute pitch side interview. Especially like your old grounds films. Enjoy your travels.
Hey sam thanks so much for making a video on a welsh club! This means alot! I really enjoyed this video
Love the video! I think League 2/National league is possibly stretching it a little. Maybe the National North/South level would be a better fit.
Just watched the video seen you off to Cefn Druid new ground the rock ( 2010) The old Cefn ground is now Tesco
Anyone in need of an FM save needs to look through your channel, inspiration everywhere 👏

The obvious Wellington Phoenix (NZ) play in Australia's A- league. Tough trip across 5hour time zone and 9h 35min flight for away game in Perth.
Great video Sam, it is good to see a team from the Welsh league .
Come to Shamrock Rovers vs Derry on Sunday, title decider 1st vs 2nd and Rovers could win the title with a win
Can’t wait for the Wrexham video, great work on the vids Sam.
We here in Wales love to joke and call it a library as well
Great video as always. Always wanted to know more about this team thank you.
Colwyn Bay FC! 🏴💜
would love for you to come to Merthyr Town FC, another Welsh team that play in the English Pyramid, recently reached the first round proper of the FA Cup for the first time in their history (previously played in it under the name Merthyr Tydfil), and generally have really good facilities for a club that plays in the Souther League South Premier.
There's Football League heritage in Merthyr too, in the old 3rd Division South (along with Aberdare).
In Singapore, we have a Bruneian club playing in Brunei called DPMM FC.
I'll have to come and see them play one day!!!
@@FootyAdventures Next season they will rejoin the league as they closed their borders throughout the covid times. Our season is from April - Nov
90% of Chester City’s ground is in Wales. The Admin block is in England. The club is classed as English because of this.

Highly recommend Newtown if go back to Wales.
Attended both TNS Liverpool games. The TNS game was held at Racecourse

Probably equivalent to SFL League 1 or 2 and Challenge Cup results bear that out!

Pretty sure that number 9 for TNS came through aberdeens youth system

When Cable Tel & Tele West where bought over buy N.T.L now Virgin Media they rebrand as

Cardiff Metropolitan University F.C how play in
The Welsh Premier Division currently.

The New Saints are the same standard as

King's Lynn Town how are currently top of

Penybont, who were formed by Bridgend Town and Bryntirion fc.
TNS play some good football but they totally lack identity. I've been to watch games there and the atmosphere is non existent. I don't think the location helps. I think it would've made sense to call themselves Oswestry Town FC but I guess there's reasons why that didn't happen.
