"When you consider that TNS are a full-time professional club and Airbus picked up most of their
players from the semi-professional Football Conference you can see why I am hugely satisfied with third
position in the league."
"Since the new format started Carmarthen have improved season-on-season and I have to congratulate
my players on what has been a splendid effort. They all come from South Wales and play for very basic
money."
Aizlewood also issued a word of caution. "After the TNS game people kept coming up to me and saying
we now have two Europa League Qualifying home games. We do not. We have one definite homematch and, should we win that, then we have the benefit of playing the Play-Off Final at Richmond
Park. However, what I would really like our supporters to do is to reflect on the season. Third place
equals the highest position in the club's history. We have had difficult times with the pitch problems and
have not played all of our home fixtures at Richmond Park."
"The achievements on the field, which included another Word Cup success, are a credit to the players
who have now got fitness levels they never previously knew they had."
"All round this has been a season of success.".
gap CONNAHS QUAY www.the-nomads.co.ukwww.the-nomads.co.uk recently spoke to Director of Football Mark McGregor to get his thoughts on the 2013-14
season and to look forward to what next season has to hold for The Nomads.The interview took place at Deeside Stadium and saw Mark praise the positive start to the season,
mentioning that a strong pre-season with games against Wrexham, Cardiff Citys Development Squad
and a trip to Yorkshire helped towards The Nomads good start to the season.
The start of the downward slide in the season was attributed to the 3-3 draw at Carmarthen Town where
The Nomads were 3-0 up at half time and ended up losing two players through injury and one more
through a straight red which was to keep him out for a further three games.
Mark sighted that strong support of Chairman and gap personnel CEO Gary Dewhurst, who helped tobring in the new players in the January transfer window, as the turning point in the season, along with
important goals from Gary OToole.
You can listen to the full interview by watching the above video, or alternatively, you can download the
fourth episode of The Nomads official podcast, The NomadsCast, which will be available on Tuesday,

NEWTOWN AFC www.newtownafc.co.ukKNEE Specialist has confirmed that Sean Evans knee operation has been a success.
Evans suffered a ruptured patella tendon in the Good Friday clash at Rhyl when he flew into the hostsdugout inthe final moments of the game. He was taken to hospital, but released the same evening and has know under gonean operation. Club Physio Wayne Peter who is overseeing the injury is pleased with the progress already made.
He said: "I spoke with the knee specialist on Thursday and he was very happy with how Sean's surgery went."There is now a tough rehab programme ahead and we will be taking it one week at a time."
Evans has suffered a turbulent career with injuries after breaking his leg at AFC Telford United, as well as
suffering a serious of setbacks.However despite the early signs being bad, Peter confirmed Evans should be back on the field in six monthstime.
PORT TALBOT TOWN www.porttalbottown.co.ukPORT Talbot Town have appointed Jarred Harvey as their new permanent manager.
The former head coach stepped up to take the reins following Scott Youngs departure last month.Harvey left Welsh League outfit Cambrian and Clydach to join the clubs backroom staff in January and hasimpressed during his time at the Gen Quip Stadium.With Harvey at the helm, Port Talbot finished a difficultcampaign with a victory over Bala.The University of South Wales head coach will not set about arranging his backroom team, with a further
announcement on this subject to follow.Jarred is a young up and coming manager, who is already well respected in Welsh football, said chief executive
Andrew Edwards. We like his enthusiasm, we share his football beliefs, and as a club we are confident weve gotthe right man to take us forward. There is a big rebuilding job to do and, as a board, we believe he is up to thatchallenge. We are looking forward to a bright future with Jarred in charge.

JARRED Harvey is desperate to harness Port Talbotsuntapped potential after being named the clubspermanent manager.
Im over the moon. Port Talbot have always been aclub I watched and one I played for on one occasion.
They are one of the nearest clubs to where I grew upand Im really looking forward to getting involved in
things, said Harvey. This is one of the bestopportunities I could have been given. I want to helpget the club get to where we want to be. There is
massive potential here.As far as Im concerned, last season is history. Thestats dont lie, we finished where wedid.Now, its about looking forward, setting goals that
are realistic and looking to progress.
I want to get Port Talbot back to where we should be. Im not saying were going to win the league, but we cancertainly improve our position.
Port Talbot ended a disappointing campaign in ninth, and were in danger of finishing in the bottom two untilbeating Bala on the last day of the season.
Harvey will now set about arranging his backroom staff before focusing on signing players for the next campaign.Port Talbot are a club Ive always had the utmost respect for. The support theyve got is fabulous, and beinginvolved in that kind of fan base is really exciting, he added.
Ive got an idea of the players I want to talk to and Ill be looking to sign them as soon as possible.

THE LAST WORD from Gwyn DerfelI would like to begin by applauding both Aberystwyth Town and The New Saints for serving up a
fantastic and enthralling Welsh Cup Final on Saturday. I can only sincerely commiserate with Aber who
came so close to securing the victory but also take great pride in congratulating TNS for showing true
grit and great skill as they overturned a two goal deficit.
The match was a great advert for the competition and also showcased the quality of our NationalLeague. It was yet another example of how it is difficult to understand why certain people dont give our
domestic game the credit it deserves.
Aberystwyth and The New Saints will of course be representing us in Europe over the summer. Lets
hope that the quality which was on show over the weekend will be evident in those matches as well.
Abers failure to hold on to their two goal advantage brought an end to Bala Towns European
aspirations and so we now know that Carmarthen will host Rhyl on Saturday and that Newtown travel to
Bangor. We had a chat in the office a few days ago regarding who would clinch the final Europa League
spot via the Play-Offs and every one of the four teams was named and lauded by different individuals.
To be honest I dont have a clue I just hope that the games emulate the standard of the Welsh Cup
Final.
Cardiff Met secured the domestic treble on Sunday as they beat reigning champions Cardiff City toreclaim their crown. The Students have only lost one match all season and deserve great credit for their
efforts and quality.
Finally Id also like to congratulate Conwy Borough. They have joined the WPL Development League
this season and unlike the WPL teams dont receive academy funding. The boys have developed well
during the campaign although results havent gone their way. However with only 2 games remaining
they won 1-0 at Bala to secure their first victory of the season. I know that winning isnt everything
but Im sure that TNS, Cardiff Met and Conwy Borough will confirm that it is a truly great feeling.
Y GAIR OLAF gan Gwyn DerfelMaen rhaid i mi dechrauheddiw drwy longyfarch Aberystwyth ar Seintiau Newydd am chwarae eu
rhan mewn Rownd Derfynol hynod gofiadwy yng Nghwpan Cymru ddydd Sadwrn. Hoffwn
gydymdeimlo gydag Aber wrth gwrs am ddioddef torcalon llwyr ond ar y llaw arall rhaid canmol
cymeriad a dycnwch y Seintiau am berfformiad y byddai Lasarus wedi bod yn falch ohonno.
Roedd y ffeinal fawr yn hysbyseb wych o ran safon chwarae ein Cynghrair Cenedlaethol ac yn ergyd
arall ir rhai sydd yn daI i ladd ar neu anwybyddu - ein gm ddomestig.
Bydd y Seintiau ac Aber yn chwifior faner ar ein rhan yn Ewrop dros yr haf wrth gwrs ac os y
gwnawn nhw berfformio fel y gwnaethant dros y Sul gobeithio y gwnawn nhw greu gwir argraff ar
Gynghrair y Pencampwyr a Chynghrair Europa.
Gan na lwyddodd Aberystwyth i ddal gafael ar eu mantais yn y rownd derfynol daeth gobeithion Y
Bala o brofi antur Ewropeaidd arall i ben. Rydym bellach yn gwybod y bydd Caerfyrddin yn croesawurRhyl yn un or gemau yn rownd gyn-derfynol y gemau ail-gyfle tra bydd Y Drenewydd yn teithio i
Fangor yn y llall. Doedd neb yn y swyddfan gallu cytuno pwy fydd yn hawlior lle olaf yn Ewrop.
Does gennyf ddim syniad pwy aiff hi i fod yn onest ond rwyn gobeithio y bydd y gemaun rhai
llawn safon a chyffro ac yn adlewyrchur holl rinweddau welwyd yn Ffeinal Cwpan Cymru.
Hoffwn godi nghap i ferched Met Caerdydd heddiw wedi iddyn nhw sicrhaur trebl dros y Sul Cwpan
y Cynghrair, Cwpan Cymru a Phencampwriaeth Shared Access hefyd. Dim ond un gm y maent wedi ei
cholli trwy gydol y tymortipyn o gamp.
Hoffwn gloi heddiw drwy longyfarch tm arall hefyd. Mae Conwy wedi bod yn cystadlu yng
Nghynghrair Datblygu UGC y tymor yma ond heb y cyllid y mae clybiaur Uwch Gynghrair yn eu
derbyn ar gyfer hyrwyddor academau. Yn eu gm olaf ond un or tymor fe lwyddon nhw i ennill eu
gornest gyntaf or ymgyrch. Llongyfarchiadau mawr.Rwyn derbyn nad ennill yw popeth ond rwyn siwr y bydd Conwy, Met Caerdydd ar Seintiaun
cadarnhau ei fod yn brofiad gwefreiddiol a gwych..
