Hole in one. The only impact assessments WAG do now are those which mitigate any adverse effects on Welsh language. No understanding or empathy for business, but no surprise there as they’re all social workers, probation officers, failed councillors, FE lecturers… It actually gets worse. Rural Affairs Minister used to volunteer at hospital in Wrexham😁😁
I saw the daft bird justifying the symbolic reasons-log burning etc😁. She also alluded to the importance of the language in “part of the area”. How v disingenuous. Powys and Monmouthshire are probably the least Welsh interested/empathetic LAs in Wales.
Retired now, so er indoors and I often going across the Bridge to Cotswolds, South West for trips. Coming back lacrosse, it’s like returning to the Stone Age.
Yeah, without taking this off topic into an area that has been discussed ad nauseum before, I obviously thought the idea stupid but I was open minded to an extent - I gave it a go. It so happened I used my mates ST for a couple of early games but it instantly felt like it wasn't my club at all. It just felt wrong. I remember my opinion really changed when we played away (to Blackpool I think) and we wore black and red instead of blue and it struck me that he really wanted to eradicate the clubs history. Then scarf gate came and I was like, fk this. Was quite active with Bluebirds Unite then etc.
I think the thing that bugs me here is dropping the English wording. It's what it's known as and has been for a long time. History matters (I love history!!) But the present matters more.
Yet I don't care a jot that English wording has been dropped. We're in Wales. The majority of place names in this country are in Welsh and that causes no problems at all. Up near me is a place called Mountain Ash. For hundreds of years it was happily known as Aberpennar or Dyffryn, then a land owner suggested the name due to several Mountain Ash trees in the vicinity.
I know of older people who still use county names like Mid Glamorgan, even though they haven't existed for years now. In another generation they'll all be forgotten. Bit like the Beacons name. It'll be forgotten in 50 years.
I have no problems reclaiming Welsh names for things.
History does/did matter and I admire your stance. Since the rebrand I'm more than apathetic to any future changes as I see them as inevitably happening, whatever they might be.
Personally on this topic I'd have no issue with bilingualism being used but would question the validity if only Caerdydd was used by the club?
How about Caerdyf, older Welsh form for the place?
Have you ever considered that the way in which you try to orchestrate pile ups on certain posters probably leads them to changing their user names in order to avoid posters like yourself?
Successful online platform like this thrive when service users take note of other posters contributions and opinions (however outlandish they may appear) and respond with respect and dignity. Sometimes it’s probably best not to respond at all if it’s something you really don’t like.
I actually think it’s hilarious how you are constantly looking for a reaction whilst hiding behind your anonymity and posters similar to you eventually get their privileges removed by the moderators.
The User Id started taunting Bob for his overuse of commas in its 5th post before giving stupid answers to Bob's quizzes. This is having previously slagged off surly scousers and somewhere called Knewport. If User Id's like that want respect and dignity then perhaps they should start by giving it.
