0:05:540:05:55

-If I say the word Innsbruck, you can

0:05:550:05:59

-Yes, winter games of some kind.

0:05:590:06:01

-The skeleton and bobsleigh world

-championships...

0:06:020:06:05

0:06:050:06:07

-Two Welsh athletes were taking part.

0:06:080:06:10

-Bruce Tasker in the bobsleigh

-and Laura Deas in the skeleton.

0:06:100:06:14

-This season, Laura has already won

-a gold medal in a World Cup event...

0:06:140:06:18

-..so she had high hopes

-of success in Innsbruck.

0:06:190:06:21

-This is what happened.

0:06:220:06:23

-The competitions are divided

-into four races...

0:06:290:06:32

-deciding who wins the medals.

0:06:320:06:36

-Despite finishing fourth

-in the practice race...

0:06:370:06:40

-..when it came to the competition

-on Friday...

0:06:400:06:43

-..Deas from Wrexham finished eighth

-in the first race.

0:06:430:06:46

-In her second run,

-she slid down to eleventh place.

0:06:460:06:49

-Almost a second away

-from first place.

0:06:500:06:52

-A second is a very long time

-in skeleton.

0:06:520:06:54

-With the Welsh girl's hopes over...

0:06:550:06:57

-..it was a battle

-between two Germans...

0:06:570:06:59

-..and local favourite Janine Flock

-for the crown.

0:06:590:07:02

-Sophia Griebel from Germany

-went ahead.

0:07:020:07:04

-Then Flock from Austria slid faster

-and stole first place.

0:07:050:07:08

-Local supporters were thrilled.

0:07:090:07:10

-Germany's Tina Hermann was the clear

-favourite for gold...

0:07:120:07:15

-..before the competition started.

0:07:150:07:17

-But although she was in first place,

-this run in the second race...

0:07:180:07:21

-..was much slower

-than her first race.

0:07:220:07:24

-At the end of the first day, there

-was only a tenth of a second...

0:07:250:07:28

-..between Flock in second

-and Hermann in the lead.

0:07:290:07:31

-In the men's competition,

-it couldn't have been tighter...

0:07:320:07:35

-..between Sungbin Yun

-from South Korea in third...

0:07:360:07:38

-..and Russian Alexander Tretiakov

-in second.

0:07:390:07:41

-Both finished at exactly the same

-time after all four races.

0:07:420:07:45

-No bronze medal was awarded.

-Both received a silver medal.

0:07:450:07:49

-So, everyone was happy.

0:07:490:07:51

-Martins Dukurs was the clear

-favourite for the gold...

0:07:510:07:54

-..after winning the world cup for

-the last six consecutive seasons.

0:07:550:07:59

-After finishing second

-behind Tretiakov...

0:07:590:08:01

-..at the Winter Olympics in Sochi

-two years ago...

0:08:020:08:05

-..the Latvian paid him back by

-setting a new track record...

0:08:050:08:08

-..in Innsbruck

-and taking the gold medal.

0:08:090:08:11

-The other two shared silver and it

-was Latvia's turn to celebrate.

0:08:120:08:16

-On to Saturday now.

0:08:180:08:20

-skeleton races for the women.

0:08:210:08:24

-Marina Gilardoni from Switzerland

-was in fourteenth place...

0:08:250:08:28

-..after the first race.

0:08:290:08:30

-But she succeeded in attaining first

-place with three still to go.

0:08:310:08:34

-Elena Nikitina from Russia was next.

0:08:350:08:37

-She was under a disadvantage too...

0:08:370:08:39

-..after finishing tenth

-in the first race.

0:08:400:08:42

-But she showed the quality

-she demonstrated at Sochi...

0:08:430:08:46

-..when she won a bronze,

-by surging ahead into first.

0:08:460:08:49

-Her supporter was delighted.

-Nikitina was thrilled too.

0:08:490:08:52

-There were two left to race.

0:08:520:08:54

-Home favourite Flock, and Hermann

-the competition favourite.

0:08:540:08:57

-There was less than a third

-of a second...

0:08:580:09:00

-..between the two

-before the last race.

0:09:000:09:02

-After a slightly sloppy run

-in places...

0:09:020:09:04

-..this race was Flock's slowest

-time all weekend.

0:09:050:09:08

-Although Flock and her supporters

-were celebrating...

0:09:080:09:11

-..Hermann knew that a decent last

-run would get her the gold.

0:09:110:09:14

-And that's exactly what happened.

0:09:150:09:17

-Hermann showed her power

-from the start...

0:09:170:09:20

-..and reached a speed of 75mph.

0:09:200:09:22

-Hermann's time was the fastest out

-of three of the four races.

0:09:230:09:26

-After dominating the world cup

-this season too...

0:09:260:09:30

-..it is no surprise that Hermann

-is now the world champion.

0:09:300:09:34

-The other competition yesterday

-was the bobsleigh for four.

0:09:350:09:39

-Bruce Tasker from Pembrokeshire

-was part of the British team.

0:09:390:09:43

-Tasker came within a hair's breath

-of getting a medal...

0:09:430:09:47

-..driving in the bobsleigh for two

-competition earlier in the week.

0:09:470:09:52

-Lamin Dean was driving in the race

-for four.

0:09:520:09:54

-Tasker was on the brakes in the

-centre of the bobsleigh.

0:09:550:09:58

-After the first place,

-Britain was in sixth place.

0:09:580:10:01

-Within a quarter of a second of the

-Germans who were in the lead.

0:10:010:10:04

-Britain hasn't won a medal in the

-world championships since 1939.

0:10:050:10:08

-But with former Welsh 60 metre

-champion, Ben Simons...

0:10:090:10:12

-..who was also part of the team,

-they set the second fastest time.

0:10:120:10:16

-They were on top temporarily

-and were on track for a medal.

0:10:160:10:19

-The Germans dominate this sport and

-they were faster than the British.

0:10:190:10:23

-But they were only three hundredths

-of a second faster.

0:10:240:10:27

-The Russians raced next and made

-things even tighter at the top.

0:10:270:10:31

-Alexander Kasyanov's team

-were one hundredth of a second...

0:10:310:10:34

-..slower than the Germans

-and took second place.

0:10:350:10:38

-They also knocked Britain off

-by just two hundredths of a second.

0:10:380:10:42

-It was extremely close.

0:10:420:10:44

-It would have been close had it not

-been for Francisco Friedrich's team.

0:10:440:10:48

-This is Germany's first team and

-they are dominating at the moment.

0:10:490:10:53

-Friedrich set the fastest time

-in both races.

0:10:530:10:56

-He drove well

-and reached a speed of 78.8mph.

0:10:560:10:59

-The Germans were

-in the top two places.

0:10:590:11:01

-Friedrich was 0.27 seconds ahead.

0:11:020:11:04

-But it was extremely close between

-the six other top contestants.

0:11:060:11:10

-Plenty of snow fell there today.

0:11:150:11:17

-Tasker and his team expected

-to do well with GB1 today...

0:11:180:11:22

-..but unfortunately, they had

-a accident in the third run.

0:11:220:11:26

-They are now far behind as every

-100th of a second counts.

0:11:290:11:33

-They have dropped

-from fourth to 22nd.

0:11:430:11:46

-The Devils were the visitors

-for the Sheffield Steelers.

0:12:430:12:46

-thanks to Mosienko.

0:12:460:12:49

-The Steelers

-continued to dominate...

0:12:490:12:51

-of some weak defending.

0:12:510:12:54

-Mosienko there again

-to double the lead.

0:12:540:12:56

-Quite a shot and with

-so many bodies obscuring his view...

0:12:570:13:00

-..Ben Bowns had no chance

-of stopping it.

0:13:010:13:03

-The Devils

-roared back into the game.

0:13:030:13:07

-..allowed Kurka to open

-the scoring for the Devils.

0:13:080:13:11

-One touch to set it up and a shot

-on the turn equals a superb goal.

0:13:110:13:15

-The revival continued with a

-rapid counter-attack setting up...

0:13:200:13:24

-..Andrew Lord to hammer

-the ball into the net.

0:13:240:13:27

0:13:310:13:34

-..as the Devils equalized.

0:13:340:13:36

-they are second in the league.

0:13:420:13:45

-They responded instantly.

0:13:480:13:49

-Mosienko was celebrating his

-hat-trick but the referee disagreed.

0:13:520:13:56

-After a long pause for discussions

-the referee was proved correct...

0:13:570:14:01

-..as it was clearly revealed...

0:14:010:14:03

-..that Mosienko had had

-used his skate to score.

0:14:030:14:06

-Look more carefully.

0:14:060:14:08

0:17:360:17:38

-Eirian, thank you for joining us.

0:17:380:17:41

-You're a former referee.

-Do you miss the table?

0:17:410:17:44

-Not any more.

0:17:440:17:45

-I spend a quarter of a century

-refereeing around the world.

0:17:460:17:49

-I've put my gloves in a drawer

-and they're staying there.

0:17:500:17:53

-Where did your interest

-in snooker begin?

0:17:530:17:56

-The first time I saw a snooker table

-was in 1975.

0:17:570:18:00

-That was in the Police Training

-College in Cwmbran.

0:18:020:18:05

-I walked into the room

-and said "What are these"?

0:18:070:18:10

-I was almost 20 years old when

-I saw a table for the first time.

0:18:110:18:15

-I was stationed in Llanelli and

-there was a table in the station.

0:18:160:18:20

-I fell in love with the game.

0:18:200:18:22

-I started playing

-in the local league.

0:18:240:18:26

-I wanted more from the game...

0:18:290:18:31

-..but knew I couldn't do it as

-an amateur player.

0:18:320:18:35

-I took the exams to become

-a referee and passed in 1981.

0:18:370:18:41

-In 1991 I was invited

-to join the professionals.

0:18:440:18:47

-From then on, I didn't look back.

0:18:480:18:50

-From the start of the 1980s,

-through the 1990s...

0:18:520:18:55

-..you must have seen great changes

-in the game and great characters.

0:18:550:19:00

-Many people say you don't have

-the characters any more.

0:19:000:19:04

-They are there, but they don't show

-it like they did in the 1980s.

0:19:050:19:08

-Ray Reardon, John Spencer,

-Bill Werbeniuk...

0:19:090:19:12

-Bill used to drink 20 pints of lager

-before a game.

0:19:120:19:15

-He got a tax allowance on his lager.

0:19:160:19:18

-Those characters

-aren't there any more.

0:19:190:19:21

-There are characters now.

0:19:220:19:23

-We see them behind the scenes but

-you don't see it on the table.

0:19:240:19:28

-They are so dedicated, so serious.

-This is their living.

0:19:280:19:32

-When the game moved to TV,

-that must have made a difference...

0:19:330:19:37

-..with players

-like Steve Davis in the 1980s.

0:19:370:19:39

-I hated Davis.

0:19:400:19:41

-He kept beating Terry.

0:19:410:19:42

-Terry would have won

-a lot more competitions...

0:19:430:19:46

-..if Davis hadn't been there.

0:19:460:19:48

-It was always Davis v Griffiths

-in finals and usually Davis won.

0:19:490:19:53

-Barry Hearn has turned the game

-around. He's done an excellent job.

0:19:550:19:59

-You reached the pinnacle

-of your profession...

0:20:010:20:04

-..by refereeing the

-World Championship final.

0:20:050:20:07

-If you turn professional,

-that's where you want to be.

0:20:080:20:11

-I've been lucky. I was in

-the right place at the right time.

0:20:110:20:15

-I've refereed four finals

-in The Crucible..

0:20:150:20:18

-..and Masters and UK finals.

0:20:180:20:20

-I think I've done seven

-Welsh finals. I've had my share.

0:20:230:20:27

-What about 147s? Are they exciting?

0:20:280:20:30

-Yes, especially the first one.

0:20:300:20:32

-My first was Ronnie O'Sullivan.

0:20:330:20:35

-When you get to 120 and there are

-only colours left, yellow to black.

0:20:360:20:40

-You think "Don't miss now".

0:20:420:20:44

-I've had four, two with Ronnie,

-one with David Gray...

0:20:460:20:50

-..and one with Stephen Maguire

-from Scotland.

0:20:510:20:54

-I think I got more of a buzz

-from being there for a 147...

0:20:550:20:59

-..than with many other things.

0:20:590:21:01

-The Welsh Open

-has been taking place this week.

0:21:020:21:05

-How do you see the competition

-in Wales over the years?

0:21:070:21:10

-It's an important part

-of the snooker calendar.

0:21:110:21:14

-I'm surprised they've changed the

-games from nine frames to seven.

0:21:160:21:20

-I don't think that's right.

0:21:210:21:22

-I think the players still come to

-earn money and win the tournament.

0:21:240:21:29

-I think the best of sevens are more

-of a lottery than best of nines.

0:21:300:21:34

-When you have a mid-session

-interval after four frames...

0:21:380:21:42

-..the interval

-often changes the game.

0:21:440:21:46

-There is no interval

-in a best of seven.

0:21:490:21:51

-They just play straight through.

0:21:520:21:54

-I'm sure you hate these.

0:21:550:21:56

-Put it away!

0:21:570:21:58

-Do you remember hearing one of these

-for the first time?

0:22:020:22:05

-No. Never.

0:22:050:22:06

-I remember in The Crucible there was

-a man sitting in the front row.

0:22:070:22:11

-His phone went off. I said

-"Can you switch it off please".

0:22:120:22:15

-He fiddled with it

-and put it in his pocket.

0:22:160:22:18

-30 seconds later it went off again.

0:22:190:22:21

-"Can you switch it off, please?"

0:22:220:22:24

-"I've asked you,

-now I'm telling you.

0:22:270:22:29

-"If it goes off again, you're

-going to have to leave."

0:22:310:22:34

-"Sorry."

0:22:340:22:36

-He put it away

-and it went off again.

0:22:360:22:38

-I called to the boy at the top...

0:22:390:22:41

-.."Can you open the door,

-someone's just about to leave".

0:22:420:22:46

-He got up, said sorry and left.

0:22:460:22:48

-I didn't like to do it

-but these things happen.

0:22:500:22:53

-That's technology. When you began,

-there were no mobile phones.

0:22:540:22:58

-The worst place for phones going off

-is China.

0:23:010:23:04

-They answer and talk on the phone.

0:23:050:23:07

-When they see you looking at them

-they slide down...

0:23:090:23:12

-..and start to whisper.

0:23:120:23:14

-Who do you think is the best?

0:23:160:23:18

-Stephen Hendry.

0:23:180:23:19

-Many people would say

-Ronnie O'Sullivan...

0:23:210:23:24

-..but in my opinion

-Stephen Hendry is the best ever.

0:23:240:23:28

-Thank you for talking to us.

0:23:280:23:30

-Thank you.

0:23:300:23:31

-Chelsea have scored another goal.

0:23:470:23:49

-Hazard scored the fourth direct

-from a free kick after 67 minutes.

0:23:520:23:57

-Ronnie turned down a 147

-because the prize money was too low.

0:23:580:24:02

-The prize rolls over to

-every tournament...

0:24:210:24:23

-..when it is not achieved.

0:24:230:24:25

-Ding made a 147 against Robertson

-on Friday to take the 10,000.

0:24:250:24:29

-Ronnie wanted the prize fund

-to grow.

0:24:360:24:38

-As far as the Welsh players

-are concerned this week...

0:24:400:24:43

-..Matthew Stevens and Ryan Day

-went out in the third round.

0:24:440:24:47

-Mark Williams made it

-to the fourth round.

0:24:480:24:50

-Michael White has been the talk

-of many this week.

0:24:500:24:53

-Ronnie O'Sullivan has been praising

-the Welsh player.

0:24:540:24:57

-Unfortunately,

-he lost in the quarter-finals.

0:24:580:25:01

-Ronnie said he had the ability to

-win the 2016 World Championship.

0:25:010:25:05

-That's high praise indeed.

0:25:060:25:07

-There are only 55 days until the

-World Championships in Sheffield.

0:25:070:25:11

-The snooker circuit stays in Wales.

0:25:120:25:14

-The Llandudno Grand Prix

-takes place next month.

0:25:140:25:18

-We also stay in Wales

-and with snooker.

0:25:180:25:21

-It's the featured sport on Clwb Ni

-this week.

0:25:220:25:25

-If you want your club

-featured on Clwb Ni...

0:25:250:25:27

-..please contact us

-via the usual channels.

0:25:280:25:30

-[email protected]

-@ClwbS4C on Twitter.

0:25:310:25:33

-We are also on Facebook.

0:25:330:25:35

-We would love to hear from you.

0:25:350:25:37

-We're featuring snooker

-on Clwb Ni today.

0:25:370:25:39

-We went to meet the players

-at Llansannan Snooker Club.

0:25:400:25:43

-It's Monday night, league night.

0:25:430:25:45

-Llannefydd are coming to play us.

0:25:450:25:47

-We socialise well with them.

0:25:480:25:50

-The main point of the night

-is that we all enjoy ourselves...

0:25:510:25:54

-..win or lose.

0:25:550:25:56

-It's important to prepare the tables

-correctly.

0:25:570:26:00

-They are made by Riley,

-a very old manufacturer.

0:26:010:26:04

-Slates in these tables

-are about four inches thick.

0:26:050:26:08

-In modern tables,

-they are two inches thick.

0:26:090:26:11

-Just like everything else, if you

-look after them, they will last.

0:26:120:26:16

-It's very easy to become a member.

0:26:170:26:19

-We all pay 10 a year.

0:26:200:26:21

-Pensioners pay only 2.

0:26:230:26:25

-You can buy a key for 5, so if you

-fancy a game at 10.00pm or 5.00am...

0:26:270:26:32

-..you can come and play.

0:26:320:26:34

-You see lads from Llannefydd,

-Llangernyw...

0:26:350:26:38

-..Llanfair and Betws-yn-Rhos

-coming here.

0:26:380:26:41

-Always full of fun and games.

0:26:410:26:43

-There are many elements.

0:26:450:26:47

-The competitive element,

-the skill and the social side.

0:26:480:26:51

-It's an honour to have one table

-in a village...

0:26:520:26:55

-..but coming to Llansannan,

-where we have two, is very exciting.

0:26:560:26:59

-You don't have to wait for hours

-to have a game.

0:26:590:27:02

-The standard is OK.

0:27:020:27:03

-It depends who you ask!

0:27:040:27:06

-There are a couple

-of good players here...

0:27:070:27:10

-..who sometimes compile

-decent breaks.

0:27:110:27:13

-Others just love playing.

0:27:130:27:15

-I've been playing for fifteen years.

0:27:160:27:18

-I'm not any better

-then when I started!

0:27:190:27:21

-It depends on the night

-how lucky I am.

0:27:220:27:25

-Sometimes, it goes my way.

0:27:250:27:27

-That will be on News at Ten!

0:27:350:27:37

-The World Championships

-are on for three weeks.

0:27:400:27:43

-You can guarantee that some will be

-here every night when it's on TV.

0:27:440:27:48

-It makes people want to see if they

-can play as well as the ones on TV.

0:27:500:27:54

-They find out that it's not as easy

-as it looks!

0:27:560:27:59

-I want to play snooker now.

0:28:130:28:14

-Fred Davis spent his final years in

-that area, would you believe it?

0:28:300:28:33

-He was the brother of Joe Davis.

0:28:360:28:37

-Fred Davis played all the

-way up to his 70s.

0:28:410:28:43

-I used to play against my

-grandfather when he was in his 80s.

0:28:510:28:54

-We will be concentrating

-on football next.

0:28:570:29:00

-All the Welsh Premier League weekend

-action after the break.

0:29:000:29:04

-And Malcolm Allen too!

0:29:040:29:05

-Subtitles

0:29:070:29:08

-Subtitles

0:29:100:29:11

-Welcome back to Clwb on S4C.

0:29:130:29:14

-It's great to welcome

-Malcolm Allen to the studio.

0:29:170:29:20

-Malcolm Allen has a story

-about snooker.

0:29:300:29:32

-I wasn't very interested.

0:29:350:29:37

-I did play when I was a kid.

0:29:390:29:41

-Andy Townsend signed for Norwich

-on the same day as me.

0:29:450:29:48

-I asked him if he wanted

-a game of snooker.

0:29:500:29:52

-We bet on the game. He

-made an 87 break.

0:30:040:30:06

-He was friends with Jimmy White.

0:30:150:30:17

-They went to play snooker

-instead of going to school.

0:30:180:30:21

-There's plenty to discuss.

-Let's start with the WPL.

0:30:220:30:25

-The big game between the New Saints

-and Bala was sadly postponed.

0:30:260:30:29

-Here's what happened in the other

-two top-half of the table clashes.

0:30:300:30:34

-John Danby steps up

-to take the free kick.

0:30:340:30:36

-All the other players are in

-the Airbus half of the pitch.

0:30:370:30:40

-It's played into the box

-and Budrys tries to clear it.

0:30:410:30:44

-It's fallen to Woolfe.

0:30:440:30:46

-Nathan Woolfe with only

-eleven minutes on the clock.

0:30:460:30:49

-That's his first goal

-for Connah's Quay.

0:30:500:30:53

-He's just moved from Stockport.

0:30:530:30:55

-The visitors have the lead.

-Airbus 0-1 Gap Connah's Quay.

0:30:560:30:59

-This is a great goal.

0:31:000:31:01

-The trick is shooting

-with his first touch of the ball.

0:31:020:31:05

-That means Coates, the goalie,

-has no time to set himself.

0:31:060:31:10

-It's a left-footed shot

-almost over his shoulder.

0:31:110:31:14

-Taking it first time

-was the crucial thing.

0:31:150:31:18

-That's what's beaten Coates.

0:31:180:31:20

-Will he have a go from here?

-Danby appears to think so.

0:31:210:31:25

-Barrow does try his luck.

0:31:250:31:27

-It's a brilliant save by Danby.

0:31:280:31:30

-He's denied Jordan Barrow.

0:31:330:31:35

-It's a great save.

0:31:370:31:38

-Nit-pickers might say it isn't

-headed for the corner of the net.

0:31:390:31:43

-It's closer to the goalie

-in the middle of the goal.

0:31:440:31:47

-Barrow gets some weight behind it

-and he's done everything he can.

0:31:470:31:51

-In the corner

-would be better, of course.

0:31:510:31:53

-Danby might not have

-reached it then.

0:31:540:31:55

-A great save nevertheless.

0:31:560:31:57

-Barrow into the middle of the box.

0:31:580:31:59

-Over the crossbar.

-It was Jonny Spittle.

0:32:000:32:02

-I think it hits him on the knee.

0:32:040:32:06

-No, it would have been

-an own goal by Crowther.

0:32:090:32:11

-In comes the corner kick.

0:32:140:32:15

-It hits the crossbar.

0:32:170:32:18

-How close have Airbus

-come to scoring?

0:32:190:32:21

-This is a wasted effort.

0:32:220:32:24

-How many times do you score

-directly from a corner?

0:32:250:32:28

-We've seen one all season.

0:32:280:32:30

-It would be a fluke.

0:32:300:32:32

-There will be

-three minutes of added time.

0:32:360:32:39

-Barrow!

0:32:410:32:42

-That one swayed and

-swerved in every direction.

0:32:440:32:47

-Jordan Barrow has done

-everything but score.

0:32:490:32:52

-It goes left, right, left, right.

0:32:520:32:54

-He makes the save with his foot.

0:32:550:32:57

-Such a difficult one to save.

-How do you begin to save it?

0:33:000:33:03

-Excellent effort by Barrow.

0:33:040:33:05

-SECOND HALF

0:33:060:33:07

-Danny Harrison and Wes Baynes.

0:33:070:33:09

-Woolfe or Baynes will take it.

0:33:100:33:11

-Baynes hits the crossbar.

0:33:130:33:14

-Wes Baynes was so close

-to doubling the lead.

0:33:160:33:18

-Off the line.

-What an escape for the home team?

0:33:190:33:22

-It was offside in the end.

0:33:220:33:24

-It was almost perfect.

0:33:240:33:25

-Accuracy, power, curl.

0:33:260:33:28

-There's time and space to lift it

-over the wall and back down again.

0:33:300:33:34

-It's a difficult skill.

0:33:340:33:35

-Unlucky not to find the top corner.

0:33:360:33:38

-Ruane. Can they grab a second goal?

0:33:410:33:44

-Ruane up against Barrow.

0:33:440:33:46

-Ruane creates space for himself.

0:33:470:33:49

-Ruane hits the upright.

0:33:500:33:52

-It's there for Woolfe.

0:33:520:33:54

-Chances for Ruane and Woolfe.

0:33:550:33:57

-Full of confidence.

-He slows down and gets his head up.

0:33:590:34:02

-He tries to find the corner

-but hits the post instead.

0:34:030:34:06

-Jordan Wells loses possession.

0:34:080:34:10

-Cadwallader goes up

-against two opponents.

0:34:110:34:13

-Marc Williams is through on goal.

0:34:140:34:16

-Llandudno's top scorer

-sets up Buckley.

0:34:170:34:19

-Tom Goodwin clears of the line.

0:34:200:34:22

-You would have expected

-one of them to bury it.

0:34:230:34:25

-Marc Williams put that on a plate

-for Buckley.

0:34:270:34:30

-You would expect him

-to score from there.

0:34:300:34:33

-collects the ball for Newtown.

0:36:540:36:58

0:37:010:37:03

-on his mind when he got the ball.

0:37:260:37:29

0:37:340:37:38

-Jamie Reed was there to put the ball

-in the back of the net...

0:37:390:37:42

-..his first goal

-in Llandudno colours.

-Airbus UK were a bit unlucky.

0:39:120:39:13

-Are the artificial pitches

-that different?

0:39:210:39:23

-natural fields in Wales.

-them in Wales as a result.

0:39:380:39:41

-tool for the Welsh clubs.

-through is also better.

-It was the betting that attracted

-them rather than the racing itself.

0:56:480:56:52

-It's a sport that's come late

-to Wales.

0:56:530:56:55

-Only in the 1960s and 1970s,

-when the Snowdon race started.

0:57:000:57:03

-Also the Welsh

-1,000 Metre Peaks Race.

0:57:030:57:06

-Many of the small mountain races

-in Snowdonia...

0:57:060:57:10

-..were part of a village carnival.

0:57:100:57:12

-They were part of the carnival

-on a Saturday.

0:57:140:57:17

-Moelyci is the name of the mountain,

-not Moel y Ci.

0:57:240:57:27

-That's despite it being Moel y Ci

-on many maps.

0:57:290:57:32

-All local people say Moelyci.

0:57:330:57:34

-The old name was Moel Leucu,

-a girl's name.

0:57:360:57:39

-The early Ordnance Survey recorders

-have mis-spelled the name.

0:57:400:57:44

-They changed it to Moel y Ci,

-but it's Moelyci.

0:57:450:57:48

-We are so lucky

-to be in North Wales.

0:57:520:57:55

-It is so beautiful, as you can see.

0:57:550:57:57

-You have the combination of being

-with nature, with the mountains...

0:57:580:58:02

-..but also, different from road

-running, there is a social side.

0:58:040:58:08

-In road racing, people finish

-the race and go home.

0:58:090:58:12

-With fell running, people get

-together for a cup of tea and cake.

0:58:140:58:18

-What makes this race unique...

0:58:370:58:39

-..is how the landscape changes

-within a short distance.

0:58:410:58:44

-It's only five miles long but you

-begin on a path, then a field...

0:58:440:58:48

-..before going on a public road.

0:58:480:58:50

-Then up the hill before it gets

-narrow and wet underfoot.

0:58:500:58:54

-A very rocky, steep descent

-to the bottom.

0:58:560:58:58

-You have to be both mentally

-and physically alert.

0:59:000:59:04

-It's a short, five-mile race

-but it's very fast.

0:59:280:59:31

-The course has been changed

-a little this year.

0:59:310:59:34

-We finish on a slope,

-which will be harder.

0:59:350:59:37

-The ground is wet,

-which will be fun.

0:59:380:59:40

-I had a Spanish lad right behind me.

0:59:420:59:45

-I've raced against him before.

0:59:460:59:48

-I knew he was fast...

0:59:490:59:50

-..and I could hear him breathing

-right behind me right to the top.

0:59:510:59:54

-I had to try a bit harder

-and it hurt.

0:59:540:59:56

-On the way down, I opened up a gap.

0:59:560:59:59

-It's a nice race. There's a good

-racing community in North Wales.

1:00:021:00:06

-Many like turning up to meet up with

-friends and to have some nice cake.

1:00:071:00:12

-Starting off the year with a good,

-quick race like this is great.

1:00:181:00:22

-You can't argue with that.

1:00:271:00:30
