I tell you, we have no problem finding the net. Another top home performance from our boys. Gwion ap Dafydd coming back from suspension to terrorise their midfield, and also among the goals.

Corners, bloody corners. Always an Achilles heel for us. Made to pay for another one which grabbed them the equaliser. Switched off at the start of the second half and couldn't muster up a response. Bad end to the calendar year.

Still seventh at the end of 2016, despite a fairly good month for us. Caught up with the likes of Llandudno and Airbus until that Boxing Day defeat which is a bit of a setback. Let's hope 2017 will be one to remember as we aim to stay up.

PAUL FOWLER - free transfer from Bridgend Street

Entering into the student grounds, experienced central midfielder Paul Fowler. With lack of central options accompanied by a glowing report card, it was hard to say no. Although his stats don't jump off the page, the majority range in the 8s and 9s. Good vision could be key as we pass into space a lot.

It was too good to be true when we went 2-0 ahead, but it is gutting that we almost pulled off an incredible result against the only properly professional team in Wales. Wes Fletcher arrowing into the bottom right corner to break Archer hearts. Devastated but still an absolutely phenomenal result.

Sweet baby Jesus, we can't even buy a win at the moment. Thought we'd sneak a victory when down to ten men (GaD again surprise, surprise) but no, cynical foul by Wyn Thomas supplied them to equalise from the spot. 5 draws in our last 6 league games is not good enough.

What. A. Win. So badly needed, though you could almost predict it as we've beaten Carmarthen three times from three this season. Kiwanda finally turns up on the left hand side to provide magic, along with a third from Owen. Carmarthen knocked on the door a lot in the last twenty minutes but shutting up shop was the best course of action.



Shout out for 'keeper Idzi for palming it in.

This baffled me. Rhyl started with a central defender up front in Gareth Edwards, that's right a CENTRAL DEFENDER. AND HE SCORED AGAINST US. It didn't matter as Owen made it past the magical 20 goals for the season, well 21 since he scored against CQ. Six unbeaten now, but not quite safe as yet.

Somebody hold me, that was two rollercoasters worth of emotion in 120 minutes plus a penalty shoot-out. Harry Owen is made of magic, absolutely outstanding performance with some ice cool finishes. 27 goals for this season, the boy is special. Llandudno hit us, but our boys would just not lie down. Defensively woeful, midfield were full of terrific passes, and up front brilliant. Semi finals here we come!

The fairytale is over for the season, only three days to prepare and fitness caused us great difficulties against Bangor City in a 3-1 defeat. We started to believe with a first minute goal by Paul Fowler followed by great efforts on goal to potentially stretch that lead. If you can't take your chances, the opposition will and came back to ensure no European dream for the students this year. Harry Owen completely isolated.

Harry Owen finished only three goals behind a TNS player which shows how good a season he had but amazingly didn't get into the team of the season. Gwion ap Dafydd though represented our boys in midfield.

A lot tighter than I thought, but Owen certainly won our fans' hearts with a rampant season. Finishing just ahead of another workhorse during the season, Gwion ap Dafydd; 13 assists but extremely clumsy and ill-disciplined. Greening did fantastically well with passes.

It was a clearance sale for our outs, mainly dead wood and youth who were never going to make it anywhere. Few players of note to leave were Ben Bowler to Cwnbran Celtic, Emlyn Lewis to Caersws and probably the most surprising was our backup 'keeper Chris Willis to West End. Also a sad moment as Wyn Thomas who was probably our best centre back last season hung up his boots.

But we replenished the quality and depth of our squad with a number of new students enrolling. One or two may be familiar if you've followed the Welsh leagues.

Anthony Miley - D(C) - free transfer from Bangor City (end of contract)

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/E8lDUdbiMNu8y10quSlJzTWerEa5K7UHJbwJxHjZ.png

Replacing Wyn Thomas' void is Anthony Miley, and looks quite a big deal. Despite his abysmal determination, this guy has a real aerial presence about him and could be a useful asset for attacking corners. Marking, tackling and positioning on point too. Hopefully can be a rock in defense.

David Thompson - D(C) / AM(L) - free transfer from Bala Town (end of contract)

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/fpkWeWcoYm9r6L9umkdS5VGP3P9K2QdoPL8IUtqu.png

Opted for a more versatile player in David Thompson, not overly impressive but a handy backup. Stronger and braver than Miley, but not as dynamic. The fact he can play as a left winger also helps.

Ryan Edwards - M(C) - free transfer from Bala Town (end of contract)

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/ltOK6xiVbvBqgkgvNRNHxF78rB6E6YlGDezytKzo.png

Adding a more defensive dimension to our three man midfield is Ryan Edwards. Obviously the attribute that needs thorough improvement is his tackling, but he's tireless and a team player plus also still young to mold him into a better BWM.

Giannis Oikonomopoulos - GK - free transfer from Bala Town (end of contract)

With Willis gone, a new backup 'keeper was required. Even his name alone made him a good candidate but would not recommend getting his name on the back of a shirt that's for sure. Needs a little more confidence with communicating and commanding his area, but can develop over time.

Lee Owens - D(R) / WB(R) - free transfer from Bala Town (end of contract)

I swear we didn't ransack Bala Town's entire squad, but yes another one from their clearance bin. Quick, active and sharp but positioning needs strengthening. Need a pacy wing back on the right and Lee might do a job.

Jacob Farleigh - AM(R) - free transfer from The New Saints (end of contract)

Complementing Lee Owens, we brought in a potential partner for him in a more advanced area in Jacob Farleigh. Another fast paced player, decent crossing but perhaps requires a bit more mental training. Wingers didn't do much for me last season and hopefully we can fix that.

Aeron Edwards - M(L) / M(C) / DM - free transfer from The New Saints (end of contract)

Any WPL fanatics would probably have heard of this guy and to me it's a coup for us in Aeron Edwards. Has a lot of experience in the division and could bolster our reputation too. Perfect to be a Box to Box midfielder and be the final piece of the puzzle in our three man midfield.

Nyall Gray - ST(C) - free transfer from Caerau Ely

Last but by no means least, someone to keep Harry Owen on his toes for the lone striker role. Nyall looks like a good prospect, more controlled, better composure and a decent finisher. Will try to alternate as much as possible with him and Owen.

Decided to dedicate the club with new kits, just to be fancy.

Despite falling behind early on, we bossed this game and Jordan Lam unleashed twice to send us to the second round.
