@JiffyRugby He would have been brilliant on that Lions tour on the harder faster pitches in Australia but can't blame him for going to Widnes to secure his financial future after the WRU's failure to listen to the players after the Wales tour to New Zealand in 1998.

@JiffyRugby The first series of interviews were aired at like 8 or 9 pm. Why this massive time shift?

See Diana's handsome boy at 42, now😍 Lovely to hear the Prince of Wales practice his Welsh for St David's day. Rebecca English confirmed that William is not taking any professional lessons but rather, He has been learning conversational Welsh. This Man is gifted and is never afraid to learn essential skills for his success as Future King🤩 When Prince Charles, his father was sent off to study at Aberystwyth University in 1969, to learn some Welsh ahead of his investiture as Prince of Wales, he came as an English Prince attempting to get to know the Welsh people better. Thus, He was not well received initially by those in Wales who felt there was no longer a place for an English prince with few links to the country, gaining a title last held by a Welshman, Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, in 1282🔥 It took years of consistency, for Wales to warm up to their Prince of Wales and eventually, Prince Charles became a beloved figure in Wales. When it came to Prince William, he decided to have an introduction to Wales that was more seamless and Less royal in nature. Indeed, William's first introduction to Wales was not as Prince of Wales, Prince William arrived in Wales in 2010, as a working member of the RAF SAR military community there to serve those around him🔥 It is a tremedous distinction that helped his seamless adoption and popularity in Wales. It was there that he risked his life piloting high risks missions along his teammates to serve and save 149 lives off the Welsh coast❤️‍🩹 Welsh historian, Prof Merfyn Jones weighed on the topic in a BBC article years ago saying: "Clearly the Royal Family were not going to repeat these difficult times with William; and so his introduction to Wales was very, very different, working from RAF Valley as a helicopter pilot, living locally," "People did bump into him in the supermarkets and so on, it was a very, very different experience [to Charles' time at Aberystwyth]."🔥 The professor added: "One has to conclude to some extent at least this was a deliberate way of William getting to know Wales and for Wales to get to know him but in a very low-key way, in a very relaxed sort of manner." "And it appears that it has been remarkably successful, both locally in Anglesey and more generally in the response of the British public to William, who is clearly extremely popular with the people of Britain."🤩 Indeed, it is quite remarkable how, for someone as reserved and private as Prince William is, he has a natural way to put people at ease and genuinely connect with all he meets. His popularity is organic becaue he is very seamless and genuine in his ways😍 Thus, Gwilym O Jones, an Anglesey councillor and former chair of the council, also remembers former colleagues of his who moved to work at RAF Valley as civilian staff calling William an "ordinary guy". "He was very popular, you know, he was one of the boys. Obviously people in the area were interested when they heard that he was coming to Anglesey of all places. But He lived in a very low-key way in a very relaxed manner."❤️ "There's a go-karting circuit not far from the RAF base and he was seen there; he was seen on his way to work in the morning calling in [to the local shop] for a newspaper, things like that."😍 The councillor added: "People were pleased to see him, [they] were very pleased to see his wife as well, obviously. They weren't hounded by the press and the media. They were allowed to do their own thing. I think that's why they really enjoyed their stay in Anglesey."❤️ Indeed, Prince William's attachement to Wales goes beyond simply being a prince of Wales to being a significant place on his love story with Catherine 1/2

I first met Saud Abdulhamid on my very first trip to Riyadh. Saudi Arabia. I had gone there to see Odion Ighalo, back when he was still playing for Al Hilal. That day, I was standing outside the training ground, just waiting, taking everything in. Then suddenly, a beautiful white G-Wagon pulled up. The windows were fully tinted, so you couldn’t see who was inside. For a moment, I was convinced it had to be Ighalo. As the window rolled down, I got ready to greet him—only to be met by Saud, flashing his trademark smile. He waved at me, and I waved back, even though, truthfully, I had no idea who he was at the time. Not long after, Ighalo arrived, and we headed into the training ground. That’s when I properly met Saud, along with his brother. We had a brief chat before training started, and that was the beginning. Our paths crossed again when Saudi Arabia played Nigeria in a friendly match in Portugal. After the game, in the middle of the crowd, I heard someone shout, “Ighalo!”—it was Saud. From there, we stayed connected, following each other online, keeping in touch in our own way. Then came another reunion, this time in Lens, inside his small but tastefully furnished apartment in the heart of the city. Back then, things were still uncertain for him. He wasn’t playing regularly, but I remember him telling me clearly that he wanted to stay in Europe, stay with Lens, and fight for his place. There was a quiet determination about him. I could feel it. And today, looking at his journey, that belief has paid off. He has grown into an important player for the club, playing his part in helping them secure a Champions League spot. He’s become one of Saudi Arabia’s biggest ambassadors in Europe. And life keeps moving forward. He just got married too. Big congratulations to you, my brother. My next video will be dedicated to him. What a guy!

The North Wales Mega-Hoard: 15,000 Roman Coins and One Very Paranoid Detectorist. The Day David Moss Broke Wales – Summer 2025 David Moss, 36-year-old lad from Cheshire who clearly sold his soul to the detecting gods at some point, is quietly swinging his coil over a perfectly ordinary field in north Wales. Normal day: a couple of Georgian coppers, a button that might be Roman if you squint, and the usual chorus of “why am I doing this again?” Then… BEEEEEEEEEEEEP. He digs down a bit and hits pottery. Another bit. More pottery. Then coins start pouring out like he’s accidentally opened a Roman vending machine. Two large clay pots, absolutely rammed with Roman silver denarii – somewhere between 12,000 and 15,000 of the little blighters, depending on whose calculator you trust. That’s not a hoard, that’s a bloody imperial payroll. Early estimates put the face value in Roman times at roughly 40–50 years’ wages for a legionary. In modern money? Still waiting on the official valuation, but let’s just say David’s local curry house is about to get some very generous tips. The coins span the second and early third centuries AD, from emperors like Vespasian and Hadrian right through to Septimius Severus and his missus Julia Domna. Mint condition on a lot of them too – some still have that fresh-from-Rome glow. The pots themselves are coarse-ware storage jars, typical of the period, buried about 40 cm down and miraculously missed by centuries of ploughing. The Three Nights of the Living Paranoid. David digs them up, realises he’s holding the biggest Roman coin hoard ever recorded in Wales (and probably one of the top five in the entire UK), and immediately enters what we in the trade call “full meltdown mode”. He’s convinced every twat within a 200-mile radius has suddenly developed X-ray vision and a burning desire for second-century silver. So what does he do? Loads both pots into his motor, drives home, and spends the next three nights sleeping in the driver’s seat with 15,000 irate Romans in the footwell. Apparently he only left the car to wee and to ring his mate going “Mate, I’ve done it, but I’m going to get murdered in my sleep.” Mate’s response, allegedly: “Stop ringing me at 3 a.m. you absolute lunatic.” On day four, still un-murdered but slightly smelly, he delivers the hoard in person to the Portable Antiquities Scheme finds liaison officer for Wales. FLO takes one look, goes white, and immediately rings every archaeologist in a 100-mile radius. The British Museum and Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales are now jointly salivating over it. Current Status – As of December 2025 The hoard has been officially declared Treasure (no surprise there – you’d need a forklift to carry that lot). Full cleaning and recording is underway at the British Museum and National Museum Wales. Early counts are hovering around the 14,000–15,000 mark, which comfortably smashes the previous Welsh record from 1980s Powys area with a measly 3,300 coins – sorry Powys. Reward? Still to be valued by the Treasure Valuation Committee, but we’re talking life-changing money split between David and the landowner. David has already said he’ll keep detecting “because it’s the thrill, innit?” Mate, after sleeping rough with fifteen thousand Romans for three nights, you’ve earned the right to buy a slightly comfier car. Moral of the Story If you get the permission for a quiet little field in Wales, take it. And maybe invest in a roof-box with a decent lock. Or just do what David did and sleep with it. Right, I’m off to stare suspiciously at every field between Chester and Anglesey. If you see a grown man crying into a hole, that’ll be me realising I picked the wrong hobby. Happy hunting, you beautiful bunch of muddy dreamers. And David – mate – respect.

I wouldn’t normally use Twitter for anything non-football related but just wanted to share the video below of Glen Hansard in The Spirit Store in February just gone – not singing, as so many people enjoyed over the years, but supporting. I had the pleasure of seeing Glen in ‘The Store’ in its early days and while he had gone onto much bigger things over the years, he never forgot grassroots Irish music, its venues and supporting those on the way up, including the likes of Dundalk’s own David Keenan and that night, Rowan Murphy. That was a practice that had continued with the likes of Josh O’Keeffe more recently but there were countless others who he helped shine a spotlight on. February’s gig – one of several he played around then with The Frames in some of the country’s best small venues – felt like a celebration of The Spirit Store and if Mark or Derek could have picked a performer for such an occasion there was arguably no better headliner for it than Glen, who was also a huge support to the likes of Women’s Aid in Dundalk over the years. There are probably countless small stories of his generosity, including arguably being one of the main driving forces behind the Christmas Busk on Grafton Street, to the point that whether you were into his music or not it was hard not to appreciate all he did for the industry here. He was in many ways the godfather of Irish music – supporting it at home and abroad and giving so much back in return. He was truly one of a kind. A ‘Star, star’ that really shone. Sympathy to Glen’s family and friends in the music industry. His legacy is enormous and his support was invaluable. RIP.
