So I'm currently watching the europa confrence league play off between Lincoln red imps and Larne and it got me thinking
Could Swindon enter the league of wales? Probably less mileage on away travel.
If we win it we get to try European football. Whoever wins this game are quids in.

TNS are geographically in England, I think, albeit five miles from the border rather than 50 odd.

Exactly , plus Welsh teams play in English league. The amount of money to be made by getting in the europa conference league is millions |

Get in a cup specialist, someone like Michael Flynn, that'll solve that problem. |

Too political we would never be allowed to play in the Welsh league.

True but the standard of this game is absolutely shocking. I think even we might win this. |

I wonder if it might be more feasible for Wiltshire to secede from England, start its own league, affiliate with UEFA. I reckon we probably could take Chippenham or Salisbury to qualify.

The new saints are 3-0 up after their first leg, which was away.
