@S4Cchwaraeon @evrfc @llandoveryrfc @SuperRygbiCymru Some of the officiating in this game has been appalling, the yellow card and that try, FairPlay to Llandovery but fuck me

@SwansOfficial Better than Ant @EllisJMeade

@SkyFootball Disgusting fairplay! Send them to non league!

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@tweetsfromben @calgas21 @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys You could argue the same with ponty for the Rhondda Valleys etc, I don’t think this discussion is going any further, club rugby in wales is on its arse, change again needs to happen, can’t it be revived to a healthy state? I’m not sure it can after the last 20 years

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@tweetsfromben @calgas21 @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys I never said Ebbw Vale should be the home of a professional regional team, that isn’t the argument, the argument is that the current clubs only ever cared about themselves and was never interested in being inclusive to outer areas, that they claimed they would represent

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@calgas21 @tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys They never tried 👍 like I said, Ospreys today, someone else tomorrow, just hope you regional supporters go back to supporting the SRC and proper rugby

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@calgas21 @tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys Well 2008, 2011 wc and 2012 was a similar crop of players. If you want to take the success of those international outcomes in the regional era, you must now take the current state of our international team

@tweetsfromben @calgas21 @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys I watch the swans football regularly and I’m from ebbw vale, I travel there because swansea never alienated me, you’re not understanding the lie that was sold to the clubs outside and why we as supporters are so against them.

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@calgas21 @tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys They was alienated, end of. Never inclusive and that’s a fact.

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @calgas21 @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys You can’t claim the 2005 grand slam came from regional rugby, those players developed in the old welsh league

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @calgas21 @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys But the identity of clubs like ponty, Bridgend, Neath, ebbw were all ok to ditch? 😂 it never worked, won’t work, bye bye ospreys today, wonder which of the “superior traditionally” clubs are next?

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @calgas21 @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys What was wrong with 4 new separate identities like east west central and north with feeder teams, keeping their identities playing in the SRC on a different day?

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@PhilRugby @calgas21 @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys You clearly don’t understand the rivalries involved at the time and the hatred of the idea anywhere north of the m4, hasn’t worked, will never work

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@calgas21 @tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys They done it from the first preseason game, alienating gwent rugby fans, so they had no idea on attendances. Should of created 4 professional teams with new identities, east west central and north, then kept a welsh league to feed into those teams like the SRC now

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @calgas21 @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys The way in which it was done alienated so many rugby fans in wales, those sides didn’t care at the time, the WRU didn’t care, bums on seats brings you revenue, those 4 clubs can reap what they sowed 👍

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@calgas21 @tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys Ebbw never dropped out of the dragons, the name change was forced apon the whole of gwent, never inclusive and now those four clubs are suffering, I couldn’t care less 👍

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@calgas21 @tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys Well they did that first pre season game, I grew up watching ebbw vale, i went with my family, none of us went again, many similar stories throughout wales no doubt

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@calgas21 @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys I’m suggesting regional rugby was a stupid idea from the start, welsh club rugby has been and is badly managed. Turning down a tv deal with sky in the late 90s to stick with the bbc is one of these stupid decisions

[Dan Croft @DanCroft9]

@tweetsfromben @PhilRugby @calgas21 @Lewypayne @Si66T @ospreys Well this is the issue, it’s been dressed up as one big tent to care about all the clubs involved, but it never was, forced arched rivals to combine, daft
