You know it's dire when you're in a bar in Bukhara, Uzbekistan and an Irish lad comes up to you you and says "mate, what the fook are TNS up to​ on social media?"

The BBC coverage was a disappointment

It's a shame to see the BBC finally invest in the league, only to make a glorified Cymru Football TV programme.

The commentary was good, but it's clear that this deal is not a priority.

BBC Network are apparently not best pleased with the league and the deal, so could be forcing limits on coverage.

Do we think the BBC will improve coverage?

Who do you think gets sacked first?

For me I think Tony pennock will be gone be Christmas unless things turn round quickly. Sadly I think recent movements in club haven’t been going in the right direction, we seriously weakened our squad through sales last season, and I don’t think the current squad is capable of winning anything (very much a long term project). What do you all think?

The New Saints hosted Manchester City at the Principality Stadium in the UEFA Cup in August 2003.

Today, Manchester City face Arsenal in the Community Shield, whilst TNS qualified for the UEFA Conference League in 2024/25.

BBC Update - Tables now have crests

Not even the NIFL Prem has crests uploaded, so a big sign of BBC Wales prioritising.

BBC - Looks like the show is proper!

Given that it's starting at 12:00, I can assume they've booked a studio and hosts (which would be amazing!)

No option for live text, though, which is something I (and I think a lot of people here) really want.
