As punishment for not recognizing the Ferencvaros first team players, Tom should play an FM challenge with Ferencvaros 🙃 Something easy, like "win UCL and WCC with Ferencsvaros in 10 seasons max"
You should go to Greece for the next round of the UCL, as PAOK are hosting Malmö for the second leg- the atmosphere is going to be insane and you're guaranteed high action and entertaining football as well
Hi Tom it was great meeting you at the TNS game, I was the villa fan. But I suggest you go to the Bodo Glimt game as it would be cool to go to the arctic circle to see a game.
Jagiellonia - Bodo, but in Poland (Białystok). The city isn't as unique as Bodo, but Jagiellonia is in the Champions League qualifications for the first time so the stadium will be crowded and the atmosphere on the stands very hot.
As a Ferencvaros fan I really enjoyed this round of the Cl, next we got FC Midtjylland. By the way we use those high shirt numbers in our club for our best players. Honestly no idea why.
TNS doesn't really have fans, and are pretty disliked by Welsh football fans. Being the only professional team in the country they completely dominate the league and leaves the Cymru Prem to be completely uncompetitive, with Connah's Quay Nomads being the only real competitor. But, despite this, they are our only team left in Europe and we need them to win a fixture or two in the Europa and Conference Leagues for Wales to not lose a European place. They are essentially a National League North side in terms of quality and probably should be playing there, despite being representatives of Llansantffraid as well as Oswestry, would do a world of good if they could swap places with Merthyr Town who are a fan owned team in the 7th tier of England and are the only viable Welsh team in the English pyramid that can feasabley enter the Welsh pyramid without being a financial disaster. Speaking of finances, the Cymru leagues really need investment by the FAW (Welsh FA) if they are to became a more competitive league on the European stage, removing the financial inequality and allowing for clubs across the top 2 tiers to improve to an extent where more than 100 fans are willing to turn up to games. The Welsh pyramid has lovely fans and teams but there just isn't the incentive for the casual fan to get involved, most football fans in Wales support the top 6 or Midlands teams, or the local football league side and it's rare that the Cymru leagues have any appeal to many of these fans outside of European fixtures like this one.
Welsh FA should try to bring Cardiff, Swansea, Wrexham and Newport back from England imo. But ofc, they need to pump money to motivate them because they earn alot of money in Championship/L1/L2 than what the welsh league is currently offering. If they bring the cash, i don't think their fans would mind having some european nights rather than 2nd/3rd tier of english pyramid.
Remember back in the day during Soccer Saturday Jeff Sterling if TNS won he would say. They will be dancing in the streets of Total Network Solutions tonight. So glad to see them getting some love.
That was actually the ground anthem for a while.. lyrics were something like “don’t feel down don’t feel in distress, you’ll be dancing in the streets of TNS”
For the next round i would recommend going for the jagiellonia białystok - bodo glimt game, the team form Poland is really intresting story - they won the title for the first time in history (on the start od the season they were predicted 13 in the league and season before they were 4 points safe from the relegation zone) and also, they are probably the only polish team playing that attacking football so their games are really fun.
PAOK vs. Malmö sounds like a fun match. Going to Malmö to showcase swedish football sounds like an interesting idea. But the athmosphere in Thessaloniki should be an absolute banger.
Unfortunately, due to regulations, they are not allowed to play in their own historic stadium. Instead they play European games in the stadium of rivals RSC Anderlecht. Atmosphere is guaranteed though, very good beers as well.
I really really hope we will get a series like this next year also(even after two episodes I absolutly like it), it is awesome to get to see the stadiums and the different teams around Europe. I really wish that you will have the time and money for it. And that we viewers can show that we are interested in this type of content.n
@shaneg9081 yes mate. Ive moved to Asia. The price of living and the arrogance of Australia and British people was not a nice place to live. But yes i have become an expert at driving from Sydney to Canberra. If you go to Australia i advise that you fly into Sydney see it for one day and hope its nice weather and then travel to Canberra and then further south and climb Australia biggest mountain (which also is covered in snow and snowfields in winter) Mount Kosciuszko. The beer is amazing there and the stars at night are breathtaking. Also seeing Kangaroos is special. Also ive found Japanese really love travelling to Queensland. Its a bit closer to Japan lol. But its beautifup. Cairns and Townsvlle are very tropical but super far away from anywhere. Tasmania is an amazing place. It has the purest water in the world and YES you can drink directly from the tap. Tasmania also has super delicious fruit (seriously China buys all our best cherries, super big and delicous) Also Tasmania has amazing Salmon. If you go to Australia PLEASE stay out of Sydney and Melbourne Only go to Melbourne if you want sporting events like Australian Open tennis and AFL matches. Melbourne also has the best nightlife. Sydney has possibly the worlds best foreworks show. Spend the $500 and have a boat tour underneath the firworks on the Harbour Bridge on new years eve. Its the most amazing memory ive seen. Be prepared to waste money in unreasonable measures though
If Union St Gilloise are allowed to play at their own stadium, I'd suggest that. Otherwise, would probably go for Jagiellonia, since Polish sides tend to bring good atmospheres. Slovan Bratislava is also good, from personal experience
Glad to see you diversifying your output man. I often wonder about folk who do gaming videos and what the long term prospects of it are in terms a career. Looks like you've seen there might be an endpoint to FM experiment videos and are trying to build something more sustainable. Best of luck with it and who knows, maybe we'll see you on MOTD in a few years time.
I would recommend going to APOEL! They’re current champions in Cyprus they’re record league winners with 29 wins. A surprisingly large stadium and ofc Nicosia has some amazing Greek/cypriot food.
I decided to check how mental the drive from Ferencvaros to Oswestry would be. It's about the same as driving from my home town of Ottawa to Winnipeg, which I have done. 22 hours 45 minutes of driving time over two days is doable, though it is a bit mental. North Americans are used to 5+ hour drives to see their team play - Atletico Ottawa's closest competition is York United in the north end of Toronto. The only closer competition is if we draw a team from Quebec in the Canadian Championship.
Why, when they are representing Llansantffraid (a place in Wales) as much as it’s representing Oswestry (a town with a lot of Welsh connections despite being in England)? Besides, if you did that with TNS, the precedent is set and then all of Berwick Rangers, Newport, Wrexham, Cardiff and Swansea would have to change the which leagues they play in.
And why would TNS get banished to England, they've literally no history in the English Leagues, although Oswestry has some history in England, they also played in Wales...
It's more to do with finances more than anything, I'm pretty sure they're the only pro team in the welsh leagues, they get hundreds of thousands of £s just for qualifying and winning 1 or 2 rounds which puts them at a huge advantage over the rest of the league
@@StogglerThe idea TNS represent Llansantffraid is laughable, like saying Milton Keynes Dons represent Wimbledon. Llansantffraid Village FC represents Llansantffraid. TNS should change their name to Oswestry and be honest. I don't object to cross border sport.
As a Feyenoord fan i would recommend going to Twente when they play at Home vs Salzburg They were relegated about 6/7 Years ago but climbed back up where they once were and their fans are pretty good! Thereby i think there will be an unbelievable atmosphere once they play a Champions League game at home. So i'd recommend going there
I am a fan of Stratford Town FC (level 3 - Southern League Central Prem division. I went to the 1st Road fixture v FC Decic. Never seen Champions League football before, great night but was disappointed they didn’t play the Champions League anthem. Good luck in the Europa Conference.
union st. gilloise vs slavia prague will be an interesting game I believe. Union has only fairly recently joined 1st division in the 2021/2022 season where they immediately were fighting for the championship, and have been doing so for every season since their return. i think also their run last year in the europa league can also be seen as more reasons why this match could be interesting to see some good football
Do Bodo/Glimt, it’s around the arctic circle and it will be a super interesting location to visit. Love these style of videos as a fan of football and geography!
Great video! I'm really enjoying the vibez of these stadiums and scenery so far! I would like to see you go to the Malmo and PAOK game either in Greece of Sweden. Keep up with the great work!
Hey @TomFM - love your videos as i'm an FM addict since.. since it was Championship Manager and it only had one league :D I think you should go and watch FC Twente play Salzburg in The Grolsch Veste - great atmosphere there.
Brilliant video Tom! Would love to see you watch FC FCSB take on Sparta Prague. I'm doing a Be A Pro career mode for my character Chris Crumpet (The Crumpet) and his first team that he played for was FCSB! Would be absolutely awesome for ya to take trip down to Romanian and check out Cumpet's old stomping grounds haha! Keep up the great work mate!
Hello from sunny Uzbekistan) if you really love hard and interesting challenges in FM, take that: Easy challenge: take two clubs from League One and promote to the Premier League, but your first club HAVE TO stay in PL while you in second team. Medium challenge: Three clubs from League One, first two clubs HAVE TO stay in PL. Hard challenge: Three clubs from League Two, first two clubs HAVE TO stay in PL. Impossible challenge: TEN clubs from Championship, other conditions you know) For EVERY challenge: a single relegation with any former team, you’re lost.
I was at this game. Me and my mate travel around Europe watching footy. We've been to 3 Ferencváros games and have booked a day trip to Poznan and Prague - you should try it. Super cheap too. We're doing Poznan for under £50 all in
Go to Saint-Gilles if they play at their home ground. Despite them crushing us a couple of times during the last seasons: great people and a nice ground. If they play at Leuven just make sure you can go there....their mayor has some issues with tourists...
Hi Tom! Just wanna commend your level of dedication in your videos thank you for touring us around uncommon destinations where there is champions league football.
You should go watch Dynamo Kyiv in the UCL, I think it would be interesting to see them play not at their home stadium foe obvious reasons so they are playing at Poland, and also they are playing Rangers so you could continue your English teams campaign.
Love the video, great content as always. Would love to see you go to Turkey to watch fenerbahce vs Lille, looks like the match of the round, and would be a nice holiday for yourself!
I don't get it - if my local village team was playing Ferencvaros I'd be organizing a massive party and shouting it from the rooftops. Bigging it up to celebrate playing a team of this magnitude. And the team would be motivated to go and play their game of their lives to try and perform and get a result to celebrate as village legends. But none of this happened here....
Best next match to get is APOEL vs Slovan Bratislava, but first match in Bratislava, Slovakia, pls don't get to Cyprus as summer there might there get you heatwave as it might be on 13/08 as per long term weather predictions for Cyprus (about 40°C is predicted for that day)
Great video i know tns we played them a few years ago i suggest you go to Apoel vs Slovan Bratislava in Cyprus because of the atmosphere and if you stay its a good holiday destination
When there is a playoff, Red Star in Belgrade must follow. I think you will be satisfied with the match, the atmosphere at the stadium and of course the food in the city 😁
Silver lining- tomorrow, TNS will play away in moldova vs CS petrocub in the 1st leg of Europa league 3rd round qualifier. Seems like a much more winnable match and possible route into Europa league
Well Ferencvaros are a Balon D'or winning club, one of their players won in the 1960's. Would make an interesting FM challenge, getting Hungary another Balon D'or.
dont think you mentioned that TNS played Liverpool in the 2005-06 CL qualifying, this was caused by the anomoly that CL holders Liverpool finished 5th in the EPL but only 4 English teams had been allowed for so they were squeezed in at the first qualifying round stage beating TNS 6-0 on agg.
You should go to the rangers vs Kyiv game for the next round we have amazing atmosphere the scran is brilliant and your wallet will thank you. Bear in mind they may not be playing at ibrox and hampden park instead as they currently are having upgrades done at ibrox.
Of those fixtures I would 100% go to Rangers vs Dynamo Kiev. Both storied teams who would rather not be playing at this stage of the competition and of course is known as the Oleksiy Mykhaylychenko derby… Interesting to see where you go with the food ratings as well in this series. 5* for dominoes and some cheesy chips leaves you nowhere to go and food is a LOT better than that at lots of stadiums. Either way, keep up the good work!
Tom I would love you to come to Zagreb for the play-off game on 20th of August (so you can see how bad stadium does best club in Balkan have). I can give you heads up on that + history of the club, maybe I will even come to game. Also you will see great atmosphere (i actually think Bad Blue Boys are best in CL quali games)!
I'd like to see you at the PAOK v Malmo in Greece. My second choice would be Bodo/Glimt v Jagiellonia Białystok in Norway. I'm sure it will be fun whatever you decide.
I think you should come to Turkey for Fenerbahce game if you want a totally different atmosphere. They called the opposing team visiting "Welcome to Hell" for a valid reason.
I always had the idea that if time and money weren't a problem, I would follow my local team in the FA cups earliest round and follow them until they got knocked out. Then, I would follow the new team until they get knocked out. Until the final. Alas, I'm not that rich.
I think you should go to Fenerbahçe vs Lille. Two good teams and the Turkish fans are unreal. Also a bonus that you get to see Jose Mourinho's new team
I went to Park Hall for the 1st qualifying round vs Decid, found it very underwhelming, zero atmosphere and a club who didn't seem to know whether they were English or Welsh. Very sad as they are the closest Cymru Premier team to me since moving to Wales, but I will not be returning there anytime soon
You shouldve done it where you picked a team in the first qualifying round and watched them till they got knocked out, then move on to the team that knocked them out
Very strange seeing you on my home turf Tom ... probably saw you walking past my place of work in oswestry.... also your pronounciations are hilarious.. and i mean oswestry even more than llansantffraid
@@KeefGaming1 so I mostly would pick on tns due to them winning the welsh league every year despite not being in wales, Cardiff doesn’t do that and so I don’t have the same want to pick on them since I’m in the champions league by 2030 normally
I suggest to go to Apoel-bratislava. If you have never been in Cyprus, Apoel is the biggest team on the island. After 5 years of absence in European Group stages, we already secured a spot in Conference. The atmosphere, the fans, it's a whole another experience. We welcome everyone, you can have a small idea to what to expect from another RUclipsr, Thogden. Whichever match you choose, i hope you have a good time.
The fact is that these Ferencváros players are NOT bench-players. The goalkeeper is Dibusz Dénes, one of the best hungarian goalkeeper. ;)
As punishment for not recognizing the Ferencvaros first team players, Tom should play an FM challenge with Ferencvaros 🙃
Something easy, like "win UCL and WCC with Ferencsvaros in 10 seasons max"
@@meelooxavier6502 He needs to learn how to pronounce it properly first.
Agreed
@@Math_Yewwferenk vaross 😂
You should go to Greece for the next round of the UCL, as PAOK are hosting Malmö for the second leg- the atmosphere is going to be insane and you're guaranteed high action and entertaining football as well
sadly foreigners cant buy tickets, at least for now
@@prodigice they now can, the issue is fixed. And that was only for Greek foreigners I think, but still
Hi Tom it was great meeting you at the TNS game, I was the villa fan. But I suggest you go to the Bodo Glimt game as it would be cool to go to the arctic circle to see a game.
Yeah thats my second choice... want slovakias bratslavia more tho lol
Bro, Malmo vs PAOK is gonna be the highlight game of the round💀
KRO SOTV 💙
Jagiellonia - Bodo, but in Poland (Białystok). The city isn't as unique as Bodo, but Jagiellonia is in the Champions League qualifications for the first time so the stadium will be crowded and the atmosphere on the stands very hot.

Th watching Colwyn bay or Bangor they get huge crowds(for Welsh teams) Caernarfon as well
Basically Welsh MK Dons
As an Irish football fan, I completely agree with the second part
Welsh FA should try to bring Cardiff, Swansea, Wrexham and Newport back from England imo.

@@tiby14 they tried that and they refused
Remember back in the day during Soccer Saturday Jeff Sterling if TNS won he would say. They will be dancing in the streets of Total Network Solutions tonight. So glad to see them getting some love.
They’re called The New Saints now.
And it’s Jeff Stelling, mate.
That was actually the ground anthem for a while.. lyrics were something like “don’t feel down don’t feel in distress, you’ll be dancing in the streets of TNS”
For the next round i would recommend going for the jagiellonia białystok - bodo glimt game, the team form Poland is really intresting story - they won the title for the first time in history (on the start od the season they were predicted 13 in the league and season before they were 4 points safe from the relegation zone) and also, they are probably the only polish team playing that attacking football so their games are really fun.
Fenerbahce vs Lille. Probably first leg as Fenerbahce are unreal
PAOK vs. Malmö sounds like a fun match. Going to Malmö to showcase swedish football sounds like an interesting idea. But the athmosphere in Thessaloniki should be an absolute banger.
If you want a better experience of football in the welsh leagues, have a look at caernarfon, Colwyn bay, Bangor, Haverfordwest and barry
Great irl vid bro, love to see content straying from the normal FM vids
Oh holy shit, I live five minutes down the road from Llansanffraid and work in Oswestry. Crazy seeing coverage of my middle of the nowhere club.
Union Saint-Gilloise
They have for Belgian standards a small but historic stadium and it could be a very entertaining match
Unfortunately, due to regulations, they are not allowed to play in their own historic stadium. Instead they play European games in the stadium of rivals RSC Anderlecht. Atmosphere is guaranteed though, very good beers as well.
I know that,very unfortunate as a Belgian

European - a 22 hour drive is mental
American - a 22 hour drive? Sure, let's do it.
Australia. Just going to the shops. 22 hours there. 22 hours back
@Creees road trip buddies if go to Australia?
I can think of worse. Imagine being an away fan when FC Baltika Kaliningrad and FC Dynamo Vladivostok play each other 😫
@unusedsub3003 total nightmare, but literally can not happen because only one of them continues to exist. But the past is a messy thing. :(
@shaneg9081 yes mate. Ive moved to Asia. The price of living and the arrogance of Australia and British people was not a nice place to live.
But yes i have become an expert at driving from Sydney to Canberra.
If you go to Australia i advise that you fly into Sydney see it for one day and hope its nice weather and then travel to Canberra and then further south and climb Australia biggest mountain (which also is covered in snow and snowfields in winter)
Mount Kosciuszko. The beer is amazing there and the stars at night are breathtaking. Also seeing Kangaroos is special.
Also ive found Japanese really love travelling to Queensland. Its a bit closer to Japan lol.
But its beautifup. Cairns and Townsvlle are very tropical but super far away from anywhere.
Tasmania is an amazing place. It has the purest water in the world and YES you can drink directly from the tap.
Tasmania also has super delicious fruit (seriously China buys all our best cherries, super big and delicous)
Also Tasmania has amazing Salmon.
If you go to Australia PLEASE stay out of Sydney and Melbourne
Only go to Melbourne if you want sporting events like Australian Open tennis and AFL matches. Melbourne also has the best nightlife.
Sydney has possibly the worlds best foreworks show. Spend the $500 and have a boat tour underneath the firworks on the Harbour Bridge on new years eve.
Its the most amazing memory ive seen.
Be prepared to waste money in unreasonable measures though
U should go to Bodø and watch the game against Jagiellonia next! Beautiful area and an unique experience watching football above the arctic circle
TNS had a really cool side three years ago when they beat Viktoria Plzen. The current squad lacks something, mainly speed.
If Union St Gilloise are allowed to play at their own stadium, I'd suggest that. Otherwise, would probably go for Jagiellonia, since Polish sides tend to bring good atmospheres. Slovan Bratislava is also good, from personal experience

Its mad you was in my hometown haha, the people of the town arent all too endeared to the club, its a very strange situation
You should go watch Dynamo Kyiv in the UCL, I think it would be interesting to see them play not at their home stadium foe obvious reasons so they are playing at Poland, and also they are playing Rangers so you could continue your English teams campaign.
As a local and a fan of your work Tom your pronunciation of Oswestry is painful yet sweet to see new content... 🤣
You should come to Toumba Paok's home, we are hosting malmö and the atmosphere will be great
Love the video, great content as always. Would love to see you go to Turkey to watch fenerbahce vs Lille, looks like the match of the round, and would be a nice holiday for yourself!
Always enjoyed your FM content but love these actual football vlogs! 🙌 You should come to Bracknell for a game and vlog it 😉
0:11 good camerawork
Hey bungalow bill
What did you kill
Bodo Glimt would be awesome!!
You should go to Asmyra bodø glimt vs Jagelonia
I think you should go to Ludogorets game beacuse they dominated Bulgarian league football. Just look at they history for last 15 years
I don't get it - if my local village team was playing Ferencvaros I'd be organizing a massive party and shouting it from the rooftops. Bigging it up to celebrate playing a team of this magnitude. And the team would be motivated to go and play their game of their lives to try and perform and get a result to celebrate as village legends.
But none of this happened here....
The ferencvaros players were actually their main 11😂 I ended up going to Google and looking at their previous games to see
Sometimes it’s a slog going to games. I covered USA v Canada a few years back which was two third string teams and it was rough
Best next match to get is APOEL vs Slovan Bratislava, but first match in Bratislava, Slovakia, pls don't get to Cyprus as summer there might there get you heatwave as it might be on 13/08 as per long term weather predictions for Cyprus (about 40°C is predicted for that day)
The way Tom pronounces Ferencvaros just deserves highlighting. Deary me.
Great video i know tns we played them a few years ago i suggest you go to Apoel vs Slovan Bratislava in Cyprus because of the atmosphere and if you stay its a good holiday destination
When there is a playoff, Red Star in Belgrade must follow. I think you will be satisfied with the match, the atmosphere at the stadium and of course the food in the city 😁
Spotted myself in this video as you are commenting about hospitality… madness.
I think the Sparta Prague game
Gotta head up to Norway next bruv, Bodo/Glimt
The first time I knew about TNS was when they faced Liverpool. It was on my local newspaper main page of football section.
Silver lining- tomorrow, TNS will play away in moldova vs CS petrocub in the 1st leg of Europa league 3rd round qualifier. Seems like a much more winnable match and possible route into Europa league
Well Ferencvaros are a Balon D'or winning club, one of their players won in the 1960's. Would make an interesting FM challenge, getting Hungary another Balon D'or.
Go to the Fenerbahçe - Lille game! I think it will be a great game and Fenerbahçe stadium will have an electric atmosphere.
dont think you mentioned that TNS played Liverpool in the 2005-06 CL qualifying, this was caused by the anomoly that CL holders Liverpool finished 5th in the EPL but only 4 English teams had been allowed for so they were squeezed in at the first qualifying round stage beating TNS 6-0 on agg.
For 3rd Qualification Round, I think you should go either Thessaloniki for PAOK-Malmo game or to Istanbul for Fener-Lille game.
You should go to the rangers vs Kyiv game for the next round we have amazing atmosphere the scran is brilliant and your wallet will thank you. Bear in mind they may not be playing at ibrox and hampden park instead as they currently are having upgrades done at ibrox.
Of those fixtures I would 100% go to Rangers vs Dynamo Kiev. Both storied teams who would rather not be playing at this stage of the competition and of course is known as the Oleksiy Mykhaylychenko derby…
Interesting to see where you go with the food ratings as well in this series. 5* for dominoes and some cheesy chips leaves you nowhere to go and food is a LOT better than that at lots of stadiums.
Either way, keep up the good work!
Tom I would love you to come to Zagreb for the play-off game on 20th of August (so you can see how bad stadium does best club in Balkan have). I can give you heads up on that + history of the club, maybe I will even come to game. Also you will see great atmosphere (i actually think Bad Blue Boys are best in CL quali games)!
Awesome video, thanks. Union SG or Bodo/Glimt would be interesting choices.
Just a mountain of cold shredded cheese over a basket of chips (fries)? Come on Wales, what are you doing?
Come to Toumba next week for PAOK vs Malmo, it will probably be absolute scenes.
Love these videos. Get a great HITC Sevens vibe
I used to work security for tns alot for s4c the tv channel on all the camera equipment I've seen alot of matches at the stadium
Union has a cool & unique atmosphere, but they play their European competition matches in Anderlecht‘s stadium so you wouldn’t get the real experience
I’m the current manager at llansantffraid . If I had known you were going I would have shown you round the ground and had a chat Tom.
I'd like to see you at the PAOK v Malmo in Greece. My second choice would be Bodo/Glimt v Jagiellonia Białystok in Norway. I'm sure it will be fun whatever you decide.
I’d recommend going to Glasgow and watching rangers as they are localish and easy to get to. Love the vids!
Great video, if you want atmosphere got to watch caernarfon, colwyn bay or bangor, next round go to greece or cyprus
I think you should come to Turkey for Fenerbahce game if you want a totally different atmosphere. They called the opposing team visiting "Welcome to Hell" for a valid reason.
I always had the idea that if time and money weren't a problem, I would follow my local team in the FA cups earliest round and follow them until they got knocked out. Then, I would follow the new team until they get knocked out. Until the final. Alas, I'm not that rich.
Rangers-Dynamo! That'll be an eye watering experience 😂
I think you should go to Fenerbahçe vs Lille. Two good teams and the Turkish fans are unreal. Also a bonus that you get to see Jose Mourinho's new team
Tom you should go watch the Bodo Glimt vs Jagiellonia game as it would be great going to a game in the arctic circle
You should go to Slovan Bratislava v APOEL, either in Slovakia (although I am aware that is happening on Wednesday!) or Cyprus.
I went to Park Hall for the 1st qualifying round vs Decid, found it very underwhelming, zero atmosphere and a club who didn't seem to know whether they were English or Welsh. Very sad as they are the closest Cymru Premier team to me since moving to Wales, but I will not be returning there anytime soon
Get yourself up to Bangor 1876 or Caernarfon best fans and atmosphere in wales
Go to Steaua in Romania, you'll love it in Ghencea! ❤💙
From what little I know about that controversy it seems like a Pandora’s box Tom doesn’t want to open lol
You shouldve done it where you picked a team in the first qualifying round and watched them till they got knocked out, then move on to the team that knocked them out
Gravy not being over the cheese is criminal
Do they play the Champions league anthem beforehand?
Very strange seeing you on my home turf Tom ... probably saw you walking past my place of work in oswestry.... also your pronounciations are hilarious.. and i mean oswestry even more than llansantffraid
Lol my Swansea to glory save in fm23 I used to schedule friendlies vs tns just to smack them around to show who’s boss of 🏴 😅
What about vs cardiff
@@KeefGaming1 so I mostly would pick on tns due to them winning the welsh league every year despite not being in wales, Cardiff doesn’t do that and so I don’t have the same want to pick on them since I’m in the champions league by 2030 normally
@@mikeavina168 fair 🤣
You should go to rangers vs kyev
YESSSSSSSSSSSS CMON
Next time you want to get a shot of you going between England and wales go to Chepstow, they got a bridge there
Rangers surely 👏👏 unreal videos, hopefully we get some footage this season if hull city get you in a cup competition! UTT 🐅
You could either go to a small country and visit Nicosia, or start going to the bigger and better games. FC Twente - Salzburg should be a lot of fun.
So random seeing my home town pop up on youtube. Also Oswestry is pronounced, Oz-wuss-tree with the emphasis on the Oz.
I suggest to go to Apoel-bratislava. If you have never been in Cyprus, Apoel is the biggest team on the island. After 5 years of absence in European Group stages, we already secured a spot in Conference. The atmosphere, the fans, it's a whole another experience. We welcome everyone, you can have a small idea to what to expect from another RUclipsr, Thogden. Whichever match you choose, i hope you have a good time.
