Issue 196 - April 2017
The April 2017 issue of Welsh Football is published on 20th March.
This issue includes all the regular coverage and analysis of domestic Welsh competitions, including the Dafabet Welsh Premier League.
This month's feature articles also include full club spotlights on Usk Town and Bargod Rangers and coverage of the recent Spring Groundhop weekend in Carmarthenshire and south Wales.
For history lovers, we have several articles of interest: firstly, we focus on the Origins of Football in Cardiff, looking at the city's pioneering 19th century clubs. We also have an article by Richard E. Huws, telling the story of John Alwyn Evans, an Aberystwyth & District League player who went on to star for Millwall and Leyton Orient.
The regular 'Looking Back' series turns the clock back 25 years, and in this issue we are again looking at matches and other news from late Spring 1992, in the months prior to the formation of the League of Wales.
