Well done pal - really reaching for the skies by playing games in an 18000 capacity stadium full of scousers.

Use their ground for friendlies and games against smaller nations. Use CCS for games against the big nations.

Then you've got the problem of the FAW wanting to use the Principality before the Euros though.

It will be friendlies only I think. I think He says in same interview that staging most competitive games there is near impossible as it’s max 18k capacity and Wales have at least around 20k campaign / season ticket type holders for every qualifying. I hope they get more friendlies etc as hats off to those who make that trek from there to Cardiff regularly as it’s a long one.

Apparently they bid 38m for a player from lyon but he said didn't want to go to the championship to a small town in Wales! :o :clap:

It will certainly be all about the FAW, not the team or support, Ned. However, I understand both the sense in taking ‘some’ games to the Ras Cas, and using the MillStad prior to the Euros

The Cardiff City Stadium should be the ‘home’ base for the Wales team, particularly given the locality of the FAW and its training facilities, whilst the Stadiwm Llyfrgell has no justifiable claim to hold a Wales game above Under 5 level :laughing6:
