Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Wrexham and Merthyr are Welsh teams that play in the English leagues. They are very old Welsh teams and when the first English National Football league was formed in 1888 (previously there were only local leagues) there was no national league in Wales and would not be for a long time. The five Welsh teams all applied successfully to join English Leagues. When the Welsh national league was formed they declined the offer to join. Swansea became the only Welsh team to have represented England in European club football in 2014.

As a Newport fan, it's worth pointing out that Newport was actually one of the founding members of the football league third division in 1920. At that time, Newport was in Monmouthshire, there was a lot of ambiguity on whether Monmouthshire was in Wales or England, and was usually a mixture of both. It wasn't until 1972 that Newport and Monmouthshire was officially declared part of Wales. By this point, Newport had already been playing in the English leagues for a while. When they went bust in 89, they reformed and played the first season in Gloucestershire, England. That's where they got the nickname 'Exiles'.

There are two ways people try to invalidate Liverpool's PL win. One is to cite the pandemic, which is insane given how far ahead Liverpool were when everything shut down, (we only played two matches after the lockdown restart before the title was won) and the other is the myth that VAR was disproportionately favourable to Liverpool that year. The second one falls down if people actually take the time to look at it properly. Liverpool were 10th in terms of how teams benefited from VAR decisions, exactly mid-table. As it happens Brighton were the team that gained the most points from VAR decisions with City and United both also above Liverpool in that regard.

I think they did try to get Celtic and Rangers in the PL in the 90s when it was first starting up, but UEFA said no. However, they allowed a joint Belgium-Holland league so it was thought it might become a reality sometime, with the British government likely to back it as an attempt to stave off Scottish Independence, and the PL wanting to shake things up, though the two Scottish teams would be unlikely to do too well initially without a lot of work, whereas they're quite comfortable at the top of the Scottish league.

[@TheMS991]

Alan Shearer actually took over in the 08/09 season for like the last 8 games. That newcastle season was bonkers. Kevin Keegan resigned because the board signed players he didn't want, and that they'd only seen on youtube. He was then replaced by Joe Kinnear. I don't remember if this was the time he called the reporter Simon Bird a f***ing c**t or not, but he also mispronounced two of his players names. He left due to surgery needed so Shearer took over, and had no hope, and then afterwards went straight back to Match of the day as if this time in charge never happened.

The premier league is just a reformation of the original English league! All the teams that went into the premier league were already teams in the English Football League! It just happens to be that in 1992 all the Larger clubs would form a much more competitive League that was then called the Premier League! Something I think should be noted that changed football forever!!! The premier league became the most competitive a league in the world because the revenue from Cable and Adverts were distributed fairly amongst the entire league!!! This is much different ( EVEN TILL THIS DAY! ) to every single other league in the world! Every other league like Spain or Germany give most of their Television and Ad proceeeda to the top 3 or 4 biggest teams in their league…… This is why even till this day, the Premiere League remains the most competitive league in world football! Wellll that, and the fact that the Premier League created such a massive new precedence that the fan base for it will always be the strongest in my opinion…..

[@kieranbennett7453]

1:25:29 so just to give some actual facts about 20/21. - man city won the league very comfortably over man utd, with no notable title race occuring. - Leicester spent most of the year 3rd but slumped to 5th and just missing out on champions league, mostly because Liverpool scraped a win against West Brom thanks to their goalkeeper scoring a last minute winner - West Ham, having avoided relegation by 6 points last year, managed to finish 6th. Their season was a right mess, they sold their most promising young star, sold their only striker, meaning they were playing an aging right mid up front, they signed someone whos career was the most memed on the internet on loan, as well as an old and slow defender who had just relegated his last two teams. suddenly it all came together and they got the most points in a season they’ve ever managed. - Spurs finish 7th and Arsenal finished 8th. This was significant as Spurs qualified for the new UEFA europa conference league, a third tier european tournament to make the europa league less congested with teams and improving the quality. Spurs, usually being champions league regulars, were believed to be guaranteed to win this tournament….. they got knocked out in the groups (first round) - relegated were sheffield united, who completely fell apart after the season before due to continuous centre back injuries. West Brom, which broke infamous relegation specialist manager Sam Allardyce’s record of not being relegated from the premier league. And lastly fulham, who were infamous for missing seemingly every penalty they got this season. in addition to the games mentioned, some other notable games were - Spurs 3-3 West Ham, west ham were 3-0 down in the 82nd minute, no team had ever been that far behind that late and not lost. - west brom 5-2 chelsea. Idk how it happened either lol. - Arsenal 0-3 Aston Villa, 4th loss in 8 games, started a run of 7 games without a win. - man city 2-5 Leicester, this type of result early in the season made people think there was no favourite this season to win the league. I think it might have been a premier league record, because at least 7/8 different teams were top of the league at some point. This season was actually very good, but it was ruined by no fans and a lack of a title fight in the second half. For example, at new years, the top 10 were split by only 7 points, which never happens halfway through a season.

Hey guys! Congratulations on hitting 100k subs your videos are fantastic!

When I see American franchises supposedly ‘tanking’ their season to get a higher draft pick I always think you’re lucky to still stay in your league/division. But if you even dare to tank your season here there’d be NO higher draft pick to look forward to in a draft … but only the very heavy price of RELEGATION to endure.

Eventually Wimbledon called in the receivers, and proposed to sell everything and retire from history, which prompted a fan rebellion, and the creation of a fan-owned Wimbledon club, Wimbledon AFC, in which a couple of old friends of mine from church ended up in senior management positions. As for Charlton, I don't care. Wales doesn't have a lot of seperate anything from England, because they were conquered and completely subdued the first, in the 15th century. They've never been an independent country like Scotland and Ireland have been. Before Wales was conquered it was divided into several rival kingdoms, so Wales as a single administrative unit never existed prior to the English conquest. Scotland and Ireland had their own parliaments and laws prior to the Acts of Union which created the United Kingdom, and so they got distinct education systems and stuff, whereas new laws always apply to both England and Wales, or they did until the creation of the Welsh Assembly as part of Devolution under Tony Blair. You always hear newsreaders referring to "England and Wales" about crime statistics or anything else. Welsh nationalism and identity have never been as strong as Scottish and Irish nationalism. Wales is beloved, but not enough to fight about. Wales was a centre of socialism in the UK during the industrial revolution and up to today, due to all the coal mines and ironworks in Wales, so the dominant politics was class-based rather than ethnic, and Welsh workers identifying with other workers in the UK, not wanting to be divided from them.

the football championships are England and Welsh leagues, the so called Englsh cricket team are also officially called the English and Welsh cricket team and leagues.

Just to add that Alan Shearer was only manager for about the last 6 games of the season.

Congrats guys, hope the next 100k follows rapid. 🤜🤛💯

Yessss PL reactions - I got a Bday card on my 13th from mourinho, best day of my life Just need you boys to chose your teams 😂

[@pontinrob]

Ipswich are the greatest team ever, sadly we haven't reached the hight since but we are on the rise again with a young English manager, last 2 young English managers for Ipswich have gone on to be the 2 greatest England Managers of all time.

[@pontinrob]

@@TimHardsVicente haha everyone's aloud 1 lol, yeah that's why the fear around fans is yet again England steal our good young manager, on plus side means England will play good football and have a chance of winning something

[@liammc433]

The stars aligned for Man United at the start of the Prem era, they managed to have one of the greatest managers ever PLUS one of the best yourh crops ever. Players like Giggs, Beckham, Scholes, Neville, Butt came through at the same time. Also they had ownership who where the first to commercialise and generative ridiculous revenue. Being a Liverpool fan it was a horrid time, they fell apart once Ferguson retired though. 🤣

Congrats on 100k subs🎉

[@DarkAngel-vb2hu]

Congrats on 100k been watching you since the rona…. Man Utd are most successful in premier league era but prior to that hadn’t won much for 20+ years despite having biggest income

[@chsh1]

Hay, apart from four FA cups, EFL cup and the European Cup Winners cup.

[@DarkAngel-vb2hu]

@@chsh1 like I said not much for 20+ years

[@chsh1]

@@DarkAngel-vb2hu well thats something every four years so depends on your benchmark, just needed to add some perspective to this.

[@DarkAngel-vb2hu]

@@chsh1 perspective - being one of the biggest clubs in England / Europe with huge revenue streams only winning something every four years !

[@chsh1]

@@DarkAngel-vb2hu well English teams were banned from Europe in the 80s and Liverpool were dominant in that era. United were the most supported club and were doing what theyve been doing lately just paying over the top prices for big names rather than buying players that suit the tactics or style or the plan. I dunno could be worse could be Spurs.

Congratulations guys

100k, nice one! You still pronounced "Premier League" wrong 😅

[@briank212]

PREM-EER!!! lol

[@pynskhemlangniangti4209]

Most of the Welsh clubs associate themselves with the English Football League. Some of the famous Welsh Clubs like Cardiff city and Swansea have played in the Premier League. Watch out for another Welsh club Wrexham afc who are currently in the English League 2 they could be playing in the EPL 5 or 10 years from now😊

[@elijahmclaughlin-prosser9002]

Newport have been playing at league 2 level a lot longer than Wrexham

[@Wickerrman]

You guys should react to the greatest Playoff comeback of all time from last year when Sheffield Wednesday came back from 4-0 down to win on penalties after a 5-5 draw! It was truly magical and went viral all over the world. Would love to see you react to it! P.S. Send me a message if you want suggestions to the specific best videos of the games!

[@ripxdoc]

congrats on 100k lads

[@quiteopinionated4346]

He glosses over so much in the final three seasons. Liverpool lost 3 games in the league in two seasons. They had the best defence of any team since 2005 Chelsea. They matched the most wins consecutively, and went 38 games unbeaten. They were fighting for 6 trophies all season in the 19/20 season, the only team to compete for six trophies in a season. The rivalry between City v Liverpool deserved more time spent on it due to how dominating they were in ways we had never seen before.

[@EmbraceTheSuck21]

By the time he got to the last 3 seasons his brain was probably fried & was more concerned about just getting the important parts & assumed that the last 3 seasons everyone had fresh in their minds
