True. Mathematically, sadly, we can’t survive if we lose every game 1-0 and Bristol Rovers keep losing 3 or 4-0…

but I suppose all I’m saying is there is a foundation that Fuchs can build on, given the right help. which might be better than our rivals have

Trying to not be too apocalyptic. Our 5 minute, two goal collapse aside, we have had three L2 games playing okay, & better than the teams around us

But we’re in an unshakeable rut of dropping points. IMO we need experienced (25-30yo) competition at CM & RW - a few players ‘phoning it in’ as you say

The recommendations

Feels like there are genuine wins available to the Cardiff Bay gov’t if it focussed on asking Westminster for the most impactful reforms. I worry the next government will not have had the past experience to appreciate the impact of small and incremental reforms like this though.

Kudos to @welshpolitics.bsky.social for probably the most insightful podcast into the workings of devolved governments, perhaps ever

This stuff ought to shape a huge part of the upcoming Senedd elections but politicians inevitably will shy away from these issues

Great episode. Love to hear the suggestions from Blakey in the midst of all the doom and gloom from County fans right now

Well bravo regardless. I have been to three and the planning was insane, especially when a rail replacement gets thrown in…

I appreciated the Tranmere recommendation, I’ve been looking for somewhere to tick off next season so that might well be it!

Great pod as always, @1912exiles.com! Ollie, do you reckon you are going to all 51 next season?

Huge win. But god I start to see Jardim’s dilemma picking an XI. Antwi has been poor all season but then today he turns in a decent shift. K Evans has been good all season but today he comes on and does little. I wouldn’t want to be picking the team.

The lineup is… bizarre. Evans deserves to play. Hudlin doesn’t. Greaves should have started. Either on for a tactical masterclass or disaster.

Shows a flaw in the Ombudsman system where, whether or not Cardiff Council acted properly or not, they act solely for the complainant and don’t seem to be expected to assess what impact their decision will have on non complainants. Crazy.

Radio Wales commentators didn’t seem to rate his performance. Not sure I saw much from him either but he was miles better than Hudlin. Positives are Greaves was outstanding and K Evans is great as long as he’s not defending. Still don’t see what Antwi offers, gotta play Spellman.

He doesn’t really have any footballing awareness. Just a tall body.

Please scrub the episode where I said anything positive about him at all. Going to be few options at back four v Swindon 😬
