This is the most 2026 thing I have ever seen.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@Oldsuliansrfc Yeah, but one is Clive Woodward and the other isn't.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@wrhys_writes @KoroTeeps Ah, yes. I don't think Kevin knows what a blazer is.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@wrhys_writes Thankfully, no.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@wrhys_writes @KoroTeeps Kevin Phillips?

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@MPsportsdragon @thepaulwilliams @Rugbyworldmag They got themselves thrown out of the Five Nations for paying players (and fighting a lot) in 1931, and they were professional long before that.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@wrhys_writes @KoroTeeps 80s Welsh hooker Kevin Phillips very likely wouldn't have even hit the board.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@10Broderick @Oldsuliansrfc @Slipcatch I suspect it doesn't really matter what Bernard Manning believes any more.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@Oldsuliansrfc @10Broderick @Slipcatch The old gags are the best, right?

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@DafPritchard Behn Davies...?

@g_r_owen @ifanmj Dwi ddim yn gwybod os oedden ni'n anarferol o ffodus ym MrynyMôr a Gŵyr yn yr 80au, ond fe gafon ni hanes y Rhufeiniaid, y tywysogion, Glyndŵr, Merched Beca, Rhyfel y Degwm, diwydiannu (a'r Siartwyr, Dic Penderyn ayb) yn ogystal a hanes Prydain ac Ewrop.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@huwrichards3 @LowerTiers @KieranMaguire @SwansOfficial Indeed.

Similarly - and admittedly not in the EFL - Arsenal haven't won promotion in 122 years.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@Pagan5242 @ShakeLS This is fake news.

You get to keep the window but they remove the house.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@TonyRees11 @ShakeLS You were lucky to have a cave. We had to sleep in a pothole in the middle of the road etc etc

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@KoroTeeps @ApsmRugby You have extraordinary vision if you can categorically say that he didn't kick him in the head there, fair play.

In his (and your) defence, it was variously reported as a kick to the head/shoulder, of the ball while in the fly-half's hands, and a kick at the head which missed.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

@CalJamieson @RevolverBen @echetus Yep. There were so many Welsh speakers in the city around the turn of the 20thC that the main annual cultural festival - the national Eisteddfod, which moves to a different location every year - was taken there three times between 1884-1929. It was also held in Birkenhead.

[Sei Williams @CapS45]

And flags, stickers and hand dryers.

All the big issues.

[Cai Parry-Jones MS @Cai_ParryJones]

The difference between Reform and Plaid is becoming more apparent by the day: Solutions vs nice words.

Reform's @joemartin1066 on tourism:
✅ Scrap tourism levy
✅ Lower 182 day rule for holiday lets
✅ Cut taxes on hospitality
✅ Fix transport (M4 relief road, scrap 20mph)

Plaid's response:
"I think it's important to say that Plaid Cymru do recognise the importance of the tourism industry to Wales"

Which one sounds like a competent government to you?
