Gwyn, sadly we've never been a big name on the pitch, just off it.Weve never been a big draw, we will need at least 5 seasons in top flight football to be recognised as a big club.

Unfortunately this is only too true and not only in the eyes of rival supporters.This is part of the reason Malky is having to work so hard to bring in top class players.Our reputation as a small time selling club is a historical fact that will take a few years to shift.This is why it makes me laugh when people say we are losing our heritage and traditions.This IS a part of our history that I would like to forget.And before all the Gogs come out and say its only because were welsh,that actually couldn't be further from the truth.

Betting on something that didn't happen sounds like vary risky bet? Mind you deluded enough to believe it!
