Cardiff four up at half-time and the bottom club in the division get four second half goals to grab a point. Incredible!

No score at the Liberty when the ref. makes probably the worst decision I have ever seen to send off Albert Serran. I hope the FA look at this and ensure that the next game he is in charge of is a Sunday league game.

FA Cup weekend with Cardiff Away to Bristol City and Swansea facing a difficult game at Leicester.

Magners League action with the Dragons at home to the Scarlets and the Blues travelling to the Liberty to face the Ospreys.

I suppose it is what makes football interesting!

 The bottom club in the Championship [who were the worst team I have seen for ages  against Swansea] win at Cardiff. The Bluebirds now must get all three points at Peterborough on Mondayto keep the promotion challenge on track. Swansea will probably be satisfied with a point at Reading and now entertain Crystal Palace at the Liberty.

Firstly let me take this opportunity to wish all our customers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. If you don’t manage to win that elusive lottery roll-over then at least let us hope that a few winning selections come your way in 2010!

A busy period sees two local derby’s on the rugby field when the Scarlets entertain the Ospreys and the Dragons visit the Blues. The action in the Championship starts with Cardiff meeting bottom club Plymouth while Swansea travel to  managerless Reading. Lets hope for three points for each team to keep the promotion push going. 

Best wishes from Grant, Joanne, John, Karen, Mandy and Paul.

This week we have more Heineken Cup matches and both of our Championship teams in action.

We start  with the Dragons entertaining Biarritz tonight with the other three regions playing on Saturday. Ospreys appear to have an easy home match with Viadana and Scarlets have a daunting trip to meet Leinster. The Blues hope to follow up the win at home by travelling to Toulouse where they will find the home team looking for revenge.

Cardiff City entertain Leicester while Swansea travel up north to meet Sheffield Wednesday. Lets hope for three points each!

It looks like a bumper crowd at FFos Las on Monday …Grant and the team will be there so come and have a bet!!

Fancy one of our Welsh regions to win the Heineken Cup?  Latest odds;

Ospreys           16/1

Blues                40/1

Scarlets           150/1

Dragons         500/1 

An impressive result for Cardiff coming away with all three points with a 2-0 win at West Brom. Goals from Burke and Whittingham see Cardiff rise to third place in the table. Swansea also won with a battling 1-0 win over a very poor Plymouth side at the Liberty. A goal from old favourite Lee Trundle see Swansea rise to fifth.

Three points for Cardiff thanks to a goal from Chris Burke and a point for Swansea after an eventful trip to Peterborough saw the home side grab a 95th minute equalizer to cancel out two goals from Lee Trundle.

Cardiff now face a difficult game at West Brom on Tuesday with Bothroyd suspended and several injuries to key players. Swansea entertain Plymouth and will be hoping to grab the three points.

Let us hope that both our Championship teams get back on song this weekend and improve the promotion chances. Cardiff will entertain Preston while Swansea will hope to respond to the defeat at table-topping Newcastle with a win at bottom club Peterborough.

All four of our rugby union teams return to  Magners League action this weekend.

Good luck !!
