Wales’ weirdest football club | MISFITS AND SCUMBAGS: The Llantwit Major Story

Llantwit Major AFC have become renowned across Welsh football for their antics on and off the pitch. A double promotion, a league title, Mr. Blobby and Boca Juniors inspired kits, a notorious Twitter account and for the first time ever, a foray into European football.
This short documentary film follows the club as they embark on their first ever FENIX Trophy campaign whilst also battling for survival in the Cymru South.
Directed by Greg Caine and Charlie Phillips and produced by Teras for Alternative Wales, 'Misfits and Scumbags: The Llantwit Major Story' tells the story of how a bunch of self-proclaimed misfits and scumbags continue to defy the odds despite everything chucked their way.

Well done, Llantwit Major. Cardiff boy but I did an apprenticeship at RAF St Athan back in the late 70s so had a few mates from Llantwit. Always had a soft spot for the place since then. 👏👍

Is this a recent thing? Went there to watch them vs Llanelli town around 2016 in the 3rd division and I didn't see anything like this? Cheers.
*EDIT* I just worked it out, it was 2015.
