Overheard on the Marylebone-Wembley Stadium train
Fan 1: “2 pints before, 4 pints at the game, 2 pints after. Probably leave the stadium at 9.30”
Fan 2: “9.30? But I thought an NFL game was an hour?”
Fan 1: “Um…”

FAO Rugby fans who don't follow the NFL. Please understand that the Louis Rees-Zammit 'deal' with the Chiefs is basically an extended trial. It's great news, don't get me wrong (I'm excited!) but the Chiefs will have 90 players soon and will cut that to 53. They all have 'deals'

There is no Premier League team where the players care more about the shirt than at Cardiff City. And no club’s board is more in touch with the fans. An absolutely remarkable turnaround considering where CCFC was a few years back

Considering Cardiff City were meant to be the worst Premier League team ever I think they did rather well. Who knows how it might have gone if certain things hadn’t happened. They’ll start next season with a much stronger squad than the one that got promoted a year ago

If the answer is ‘no’ then the push wasn’t a ‘a reflex’. It was Adams taking out his frustration on someone he thought was less powerful than him

If LRZ makes the Chiefs 53 and kids in the UK are watching him on TV you have to assume youth rugby participation is going to take a hit. Got the skills for rugby? Why not take up American football where there’s a clear path, more money and less off-field chaos. Bad day for rugby

Count it as an away win and fine Rotherham/points deduction. This is not non-league football
An EFL Spokesperson said: “Following the abandonment of this afternoon’s Sky Bet Championship fixture between Rotherham United and Cardiff City, the circumstances surrounding this will now be considered in-line with EFL Regulations.”

Things to note:
1️⃣The Chiefs clearly rate him and don’t want other teams near him
2️⃣Players can still get cut or released after signing multi year contracts in the NFL. Happens every offseason
3️⃣I think we’ll see a lot of him in preseason but could still be practice squad
Welsh rugby star Louis Rees-Zammit will be in Kansas City today to sign his three-year contract with the

Wrexham basically have the most expensive season tickets in Welsh football. They are a non-league side! Cardiff City fans will pay less to watch Gareth Bale play for them next season. Dread to think what Wrexham’s prices would be like if they had got promoted
We are pleased to confirm our ticket, season-ticket and membership pricing and packages for the 2022/23 season - all of which go on sale on Tuesday June 7.
