CHIEF executive Andrew Edwards has sounded a rallying call as Port Talbot Town prepare to begin their Play-off Conference campaign. After a disappointing start to the season, the Steelmen missed out on a place in the top half competition despite finishing strongly before the Welsh Premier League split. Last Saturdays defeat to Rhyl came after a six-game unbeaten run, and Edwards is confident that Port Talbot can make their mark as they chase a chance for European football. Finishing seventh would secure entry to the end-of season play-offs, where teams fight for a Europa League spot. Weve got nothing to fear. On paper weve got as strong a squad as anyone and well be going full out to get that seventh spot, said Edwards. We had loftier ambitions at the start of the season, but we are where we are and with the exception of the Rhyl result I think weve turned the corner. Going into the final ten games, the bottom half will be very competitive. We the exception of Afan Lido, everyone will fancy themselves for seventh spot. I think itll be more competitive than the top half because the teams there already know theyll be in the play-offs. We have more to play for. Getting into the knockouts would present an opportunity for Continental football and a huge financial injection for the club. They begin that quest with a visit to Prestatyn on Saturday. The players want that seventh spot because they all want the chance to play in Europe, added Edwards. A lot of players have played there before and its a great feeling. And from the clubs point of view the financial rewards are huge. To a club at our level 100,000 makes a massive difference.
Edwards looks to Euro qualification Northop Hall withdraw from WPWL Northop Hall Girls FC have informed the Welsh Premier Womens League Panel that they are withdrawing from the League with immediate effect. The club have struggled to attract senior players all season and felt that it would be unfair to continue until the end of the campaign with a depleted side. They have taken this difficult decision sooner rather than later to protect the integrity of the League. All of Northop Halls results this season will be expunged and obviously all remaining matches will be cancelled. This will also mean that only one club will be relegated from the Shared Access WPWL at the end of this season. Elain Owen, first team manager, commented Making the decision at this point hopefully brings less disruption to the League and the Club as a whole. In the short term it may not be a positive outcome, however continuing would have had a more detrimental effect upon all. Having a high standard womens league within Wales is a great achievement and something which every player should aim to be a part of. We wish all Clubs every success for the remainder of the season.

CLUB NEWS ABERYSTWYTH TOWN www.atfc.org.uk An Appeals Panel of the Football Association of Wales sat today (7th February 2014) to consider an appeal by Aberystwyth Town Football Club. Aberystwyth Town were appealing against the decision of a Disciplinary Panel who fined the club 250.00 and deducted 3 (three) points from their Welsh Premier League First Phase record under FAW Rule 38.1.6, for allegedly fielding a player whilst under suspension in their Corbett Sports Welsh Premier League match against Gap Connahs Quay on 4th January 2014. The Appeals Panel decided to dismiss Aberystwyth Towns appeal and that the original punishment imposed on the club remains in place. Aberystwyth Town have until Tuesday, 18th February 2014 to refer the matter to an Independent Arbitration Panel. AFAN LIDO FC pitheroousafaniofootau !. AIRBUS UK BROUGHTON www.airbusfc.com THE Wingmakers' Welsh Premier fixture at home to league leaders The New Saints is to be screened live by S4/C. As a result, the fixture on Saturday February 22 will have a kick-off time of 15:45. There is one other change to the phase two fixtures announced at the beginning of this week. Due to a large function taking place in the Broughton Wings Sports Club on the evening of March 14, the home fixture against Newtown has been reverted back to Saturday March 15 with the agreement of the Robins and the league.. BALA TOWN www.balatownfc.co.uk ! BANGOR CITY www.bangorcity.co.uk ! CARMARTHEN TOWN www.carmarthentownafc.org A View from the Press Box by Chris Harte There were groans all round early last Saturday morning when the news came through that the match at Nantporth against Bangor City had been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch. "It's a long way to come for a free breakfast," said midfielder Luke Bowen. "It will have been a nine hour round trip for nothing and we'll have to do it all again later in the season." His frustration was obvious as were those of all the other players sitting in the dining room of the hotel overlooking the Menai Straits. They had left work on Friday afternoon and driven in a convoy of cars through the heart of Wales to get to Bangor in time for a snack and a drink before the 10.30pm night curfew. "I had them up at 7am," muttered manager Mark Aizlewood, "in order to make sure they had eaten a decent breakfast before we went for a light training session." "It was then my plan to get to the ground ninety minutes before the late morning kick-off and go through some more warm-up routines on the main pitch." The match had been switched away from Richmond Park due to the on-going pitch problems in Carmarthen. When S4/C were told what was happening they immediately scheduled the televised game for an early morning slot before the Wales international rugby match. With only six days notice it had been a struggle to find a hotel with twenty beds available. Eventually (and with some help from Bangor City manager Neville Powell) Mark was able to find the right place which, as he said, "is only a six minute walk away from the ground." It was not only the players and team management who had to get organised. Who would look after the kit and accoutrements as kitman Gareth Davies (he prefers the title 'Equipment Manager') was unavailable? Could physiotherapist Matthew Lewis travel? If not, who could take his place? From my point of view, as Media Manager, it was an immediate contact with Kevin Owen, Bangor's programme editor. What information did he want from me? Eventually he needed only six pages which was easy as the Club History; Player Profiles; Player Photographs and a team picture were all prepared and ready to go. Then there had to be liaison with our radio partners. BBC Radio Cymru normally need just team news the day prior to the game whereas Radio Carmarthenshire and their other five sister stations usually need various previews and reports leading up to Saturday. Nowadays the internet has to be serviced, not just the club's website managed expertly by Huw Davies, but various bloggers and others who report on the Welsh Premier League. Naturally the Journal had to be informed of the sudden change of venue as did additional newspapers and media outlets. Other people within Carmarthen Town Football Club have to swing into action. Secretary Gareth Jones had to prepare all the necessary paperwork and continually liaise with his Bangor counterpart, even for an away fixture. John Collyer, who writes the match reports, had had to make sure there was someone to look after his Pencader farm while he travelled. He got as far as Dolgellau before I 'phoned him with the news of the postponement. "Ah, well," he sighed. "I suppose I'll have to go back and carry on mucking-out." Regular supporters of the team, many of whom thought they would miss out, would in all probability now be able to attend the game when it is eventually re-arranged. There are, obviously, many other people who help run the club and the team. A rushed fixture like last Saturday sees many just click into action. Without them, and they really are unsung heroes, there would be no Carmarthen Town. gap CONNAHS QUAY www.the-nomads.co.uk ! NEWTOWN AFC www.newtownafc.co.uk !.

There is no way you win games of football when you do things like that. It's something we have to strive to improve because we cant possible expect to get anything from this season when we play like that I thought we were really good attacking-wise but we gave ourselves to much of a mountain to climb Congratulations to our players Scott Williams and Tom Kemp for being called up to the Welsh Under19's College Team to face England. The game will be played in Gloucester on February 12th. Well done to Dave, Andy, Bolly and Chris for developing these players lets hope there are more call ups. Rhyl FC www.rhylfc.co.uk !.

'Niall's appointment comes at an exciting time for the club as the newly established Foundation looks to further establish the club's profile and it's links with the local community' commented Chief Operating Officer Ian Williams.

The former Doncaster Rovers midfielder has joined The Saints on a free transfer and will wear the number 15 shirt for TNS. Fowler began his career with Coventry City and has had spells with Huddersfield Town, Newport County and Wrexham. The Cardiff- born footballer recently left Kidderminster Harriers and will be hoping that his wealth of experience will help his new side claim a third Corbett Sports Welsh Premier League title on the trot. The former Wales Under-21 was pleased to have joined The Saints and said, I am pleased to have signed and it is a really good opportunity for me to play some games. I have been speaking to Craig (Harrison) quite regularly over the past two seasons and I nearly signed for TNS last summer but the deal didnt materialise. Fowler, 30, also expressed his excitement at joining the Corbett Sports Welsh Premier League Champions, I am excited to start and I already knew a few of the lads here so I am really looking forward to it. I know Connell Rawlinson because I live in the same village as him. I have also played against Jamie Mullan quite a few times so I know him too. The 5ft7in midfielder also gave the TNS fans a clue of what they can expect to see from him and revealed hat he nearly joined the Oswestry based side a decade ago, I will bring composure on the ball and add a bit of experience in the midfield. I am definitely a winner, both in training and in the match, I always want to win. I am hoping to add a bit of leadership to the side. I also nearly signed for the club on loan whilst I was at Huddersfield, during when Ken McKenna was here.

THE LAST WORD from Gwyn Derfel
Theres no doubt that its been a hugely frustrating few weeks for everyone concerned with the Aberystwyth points deduction issue.
It is a great relief that the club has notified the FAW today that they will not be referring the matter to an independent arbitrator. This thankfully concludes the matter and means that Rhyl are confirmed in the Top 6 and that Aber will have to keep their European dreams alive through either the Welsh Cup or the Play Off system.
I would like to place my thanks to Aberystwyths committee on record for informing the FAW of their decision a full week before they had to do so. This allows the full fixture list to resume this weekend and also means that we can concentrate on footballing issues if the weather is agreeable of course.
The adverse weather will have an impact on the remaining Phase 2 fixtures and Id like to thank all of the club secretaries in advance for their co-operation and understanding during this process.
I hope that Derek Brockway does the same in the coming weeks as well.
Y GAIR OLAF gan Gwyn Derfel
Does dim amheuaeth bod yr wythnosau diwethaf wedi bod yn hynod o rwystredig i bawb sydd wedi cael eu heffeithio gan achos diddymu triphwynt Aberystwyth.
Maen rhaid i mi fod yn gwbl onest fy mod wedi ochneidio ochenaid drom o ryddhad heddiw pan glywais bod Aber wedi cadarnhau na fyddent yn mynd u hachos drwy broses gymodi. Fe allai hynny fod wedi amharun sylweddol ar drefn ail ran y tymor ond diolch ir drefn fe allwn ganolbwyntio bellach ar ar faterion ar y meysydd chwarae os bydd y duwiau tywydd yn caniatau!
Hoffwn ddatgan fy niolch diffuant i swyddogion clwb Coedlan y Parc am gyhoeddi eu bwriad wythnos cyn oedd raid - sydd yn galluogi clybiau eraill chwarae gemaur penwythnos yma.
Oherwydd y gohiriadau sydd wedi digwydd o ganlyniad i achos Aberystwyth ar tywydd garw bydd yn rhaid i mi ail wampio nifer o gemau yn ystod ail ran y tymor. Hoffwn ddiolch ymlaen llaw i ysgrifenyddion ein clybiau am eu cydweithrediad au dealltwriaeth yn ystod y broses hon.
Gobeithio y bydd Derek Brockway yn dangos yr un cydweithrediad yn ystod yr wythnosau nesaf hefyd.
