I'm a fan of Merthyr Town AFC and have been since I could cross the main road by myself, but don't like the way they prefer to play in minor English leagues keeping alive their pipe dream of climbing to the top of the pyramid, when their never went beyond the old 3rd division south, rather than playing every match against other Welsh sides with the chance of going into Europe. They once did well against Italian opposition but qualified through a Welsh competition in which they can no longer compete. In fact they now have nothing to look forward to at the end of the season but dream on as they slip further & further into anonymity. This season has just seen them halting the slide, being promoted from an English nowhere to another English nowhere, so at least avoiding the ignominy of a once proud Welsh club descending to the depths of park football.
