A short break in West Wales meant the trip to Penparcau, a mile or so south east of Aberystwyth, was far easier than if travelling from home. These two had contrasting starts to the season, with Penparcau going down 1-4 at Llanfair United, whilst Carno had beaten Four Crosses 3-2 at home.

Penparcau had already gone in front, with a header off the inside of the post, when Carno lost their ‘keeper to injury after just seventeen minutes, which meant an outfield player taking over, as they had no substitute ‘keeper. It was 3-0 just after the half hour mark and there was no way back for the visitors. A penalty, awarded for a handball, saw Penparcau go four up early in the second half and two confident finishes, when the striker was played through one on one with the ‘keeper, completed the scoring.

I had already completed the Ardal South East and South West divisions and tonight’s match added the North East division to the set. Down to just three grounds in the North West division not visited, to complete the top three tiers in Wales; Llanuwchllyn, St. Asaph City and Saltney Town.
