Greg and Ryan are back on club duty after the extended men's international break. But the international football doesn't stop there as Wales women win 1-0 out in Albania in the first leg of the World Cup play-off semi finals. And it's a good weekend for Swansea and Newport, and not so good for Cardiff, Wrexham and Merthyr. We have FOUR (!!) Cymru Premier gameweeks to catch up and we discuss Lewis Koumas starting for Liverpool and squad dropouts going straight back in for their clubs. It's a stacked pod, where we try and cover as much Welsh football as humanely possible in around 60 minutes.
A big thank you to our sponsors, Penybont Football Club.
