Having had a successful run in the cup matches this season, Pwllheli have fallen behind in their league matches, having only played 4 games so far, which leaves them second from bottom in the league table. Amlwch are propping up the table, coming into this having lost all ten of their games.

Their own ground doesn’t have floodlights, so in an effort to catch up their fixture backlog, Pwllheli hired the floodlit ground at Treborth Playing Fields, (belonging to Bangor University) which is Pitch 4 according to the map of the complex that was on the changing room building wall.

Amlwch battled well, although they did ride their luck at times, but when Pwllheli broke the deadlock early in the second half, then added another two soon after, it was game over. With a three goal lead, they took their foot off the pedal and coasted to a comfortable three points. The win lifted them three places up the league table, and if they were to win their games in hand, they could go up to second place, just two points behind leaders Blaenau Amateurs. Despite kicking off a minute late, this was a very prompt finish. The players stayed on the pitch at halftime, rather than trek the 200 yards back to the changing rooms, so we were done and dusted by 21.09.

I know the Welsh have their own language, but didn’t realise they also have a different way of counting numbers. According to the league website, the official attendance tonight was 70. It wouldn’t have reached that total even if you included the players !
