What a good start for Merthyr.

Another 2 for Ricardo Rees, he’s gold dust at that level. It’s a long long way to go but at least they’re proving to be competitive.

Excellent. Not so good for Wrexham.

I can answer my own question. National League is the highest level in the English pyramid system. EFL does not allow artificial pitches BUT the FA Cup does!
Scotland too - allows them.

Correct. Personally, I hate them. I get the community use angle and why clubs might do it but I just hate the look and feel of them. Penydarren Park I arguably one of the best non league grounds in the country historically but the pitch does jar a little for me.
It's not a big issue clearly and great to see them starting so well! The crowds can make a big difference at that level too in terms of bringing players in
