Whilst we are on the subject of traffic & travel, what the hell are TFW doing putting a single carriage train on to Ninian Park 90 mins before kick-off? It was pretty much full leaving Queen Street, so many couldn’t get on at Central. I assume they got a train to Grangetown instead, but what a ridiculous set-up.
It won’t happen, but there should be a shuttle from Central every 15 mins before games. They make plans for the rugby, they don’t for football.

As far as public transport are concerned we live in a third world country,in fact that's an insult to many third world countries who's buses and trains are a damn sight better.

Well no complaints about atmosphere in Split. Red wall+ the FAW tv sidekick had their own cameras in the ground. Great coverage of game and fans with no commentary.

spare a thought for those on the TFW bus from Bangor that took over 7 hours to get back, via Kidderminster, sat in Cardiff traffic for an hour instead of diverting another way, diverted to Kiddy instead of going mid wales,absolute shambles no planning of route whatsoever in advance, on arrival the driver even had to pay the parking out of his own pocket as TFW hadn't pre booked it.

It’s symptomatic of the state of service industries.
Those who work in it are paid nothing, not valued & overstretched. See NHS.

North Road was shut off due to a person being hit. Main road in north Cardiff. That would’ve pushed traffic elsewhere. I got caught up in slow moving traffic westbound at J32 Coryton. Left Carmarthen same time as usual and missed the first 5 minutes of the game, first time it’s ever happened! Yma o hyd and Hen Wlad fy Nhadau are a bit slow beat, and repetitive now? The anthem used to be spontaneous but it’s sung every game now, I guess it’s not a bad thing but deffo could do with some fresh chants/songs. Like others have said it was never going to be rocking on a Tuesday night! A National Anthem should only be sung once. It's not a chant. Appreciate that it's had an amazing effect previously but it would be a travesty if we went to the same extreme as the England fans who seem to sing their anthem (probably the worst 'National' anthem globally) every 5 mins.

Happy for the anthem to come out on occasions... when we're hanging on to a 1 goal lead with 15 or so minutes left. It's worked well as an added boost for the players in the past when it belts out spontaneously.

I'd love some Super Furry Animals before the game when we play in Cardiff, if we could make that a thing it would be brilliant
