Jon,
welcome to the forum and thanks for your message.
Just one thing regarding the Wrexham friendly on Aug 18th.
I have read somewhere that the WRU have ststed that no games can take
place on that day between 1pm and 4pm because of the international at
the MS. Does this call off the friendly?
Cheers
Jason

COME ON CAER!!!!!!
