There were no other leagues available for the clubs to join at that time. As such, all of these 5 clubs played in the English football league system instead. All of these 5 Welsh teams were playing in the English football league.
When the Welsh Premier League was founded in , they all declined to join their domestic league! However, there were actually 6 other Welsh teams playing in England who moved back to the Welsh Premier League. This included:. A possible reason why these Welsh teams did not want to move back to Wales was the lack of prestige of the Welsh Premier League.
The Welsh Premier League was only started in Meanwhile, the entire English football league system has been established since ! The quality of opposition that these teams faced in the English league system would be much higher too. Moreover, the prize money would be much higher if they were able to win some trophies in England! At the time, these feats were almost impossible. Well done and good luck to two of my old clubs CaernarfonTown bangorcityfc in the Welsh Cup daretodream europe?
This, wonderfully, means that the minnows of the Welsh League get a European run-out every season. Every cloud and all that. Quite the contrast in calibre, we assume. Anyway, that, in a relatively small nutshell, is why some Welsh clubs actually ply their trade over in England.

I hope , what Swansey will be return in the Premier League. I think Swansea will not be relegated next season,they are not having good time,but they can do it. Their defense led by Ashley Williams is so powerful. It lays a solid foundation for their survival this season.
I think Laudrupp should have stayed in Swansea. He had still so many new things to teach them. The problem is that in one moment they showed bad performances.
Still, it was just a permanent form, not a reason for leaving the team. This year they will have to strive to win a good position. That's the same question I've asked on 24 November see my comment above , and I still don't know the answer?
Jack Rich - any ideas? I think Gomis is an excellent player. Players often have dips in form and when it happens to a few players at the same time this has an effect on the entire team. It reminds me of a common football expression - 'Form is temporary, class is permanent. Nice expression, I've got it written down.
I've also heard the recent news that Garry Monk had been reluctantly dismissed, although, IMHO, the blame for Swans' poor performance should not be fully put on him. Let's see how they perform in post-Monk era. I'm not a Swansea City fan but i respest them as they played really good mtaches last season. With limited budget they reached maximum results and it's appreciated! And they have a very good mix of players: Gylfi Sigurdsson, Ki Sung-Yueng and Andre Ayew, the latter being a big pleasant surprise for me this season.
Real refreshment for the Premier league. The swans are making unique atmosphere and coreography. I always thought that Cardif was only true representative of welsh football. How wrong..
