-Good evening and welcome to Clwb

-at a new time in this new year.

-On a disappointing FA Cup 3rd-round

-weekend for Welsh clubs...

-..we'll be celebrating one

-of the biggest shocks of all time.

-Can you believe that it's 25 years

-since Wrexham beat the Gunners.

-Here's what else

-is on the programme.

-Fond memories of beating Arsenal but

-the fans have plenty to worry about.

-Woking were the visitors

-to the Racecourse yesterday.

-Out on the ocean waves, one Welshman

-is sailing around the world...

-..in the Vendee Globe race.

-There's a race to be in the top half

-of the Principality Premiership...

-..before the league splits in two.

-2017 is going to be a big year

-for the Welsh capital.

-We also chat with Alan Hamer.

-He's responsible for arranging the

-Champions League Final in Cardiff.

-My guest was on the Racecourse pitch

-on that incredible afternoon...

-..when Wrexham beat Arsenal.

-Welcome to the former Wrexham

-midfielder, Waynne Phillips.

-Can you believe that 25 years

-have gone by?

-No, the years have flown by.

-The game is always mentioned at this

-time of year at the 3rd-round stage.

-It's possibly the biggest ever

-FA Cup shock.

-I'm happy to have been part

-of the team that beat Arsenal.

-I was also there but I

-wasn't smiling, like you!

-We'll have more about

-that afternoon later on.

-We kick-off the programme

-on the Racecourse.

-No FA Cup tie and definitely

-no Arsenal this time...

-..but Woking in the National League.

-Ralph with the throw.

-Murtagh has Lewis

-supporting out on the flank.

-Lewis had plenty of time

-to play the ball into the box.

-Ugwu's header went

-well over the bar.

-James Jennings with the effort.

-He wasn't far off the target.

-Jennings battles his way

-to the ball.

-Good play.

-Tilt forward to White

-who controls it.

-Rooney with time to turn and shoot.

-Rooney gives Wrexham the lead.

-While one brother is busy claiming

-all the headlines at Old Trafford...

-..this is the brother

-the Wrexham fans care about.

-Ugwu controls possession

-and Hall collects the ball.

-Out to Ralph.

-Ralph takes the ball into the box

-and Barry challenges him...

-..but the ball falls perfectly

-for Fabio Saraiva.

-The Wrexham lead only lasted five

-minutes here at The Racecourse.

-Ralph's shot rebounded perfectly

-to Fabio Saraiva.

-Carrington gets the ball back.

-The cross goes into the box.

-Evans is denied by

-an excellent save by Michael Poke.

-It was a good cross and White

-did well to get his head to it.

-Barry has time to take stock.

-McLeod with an excellent pass

-towards White.

-White plays it to Evans.

-Wrexham have retaken the lead.

-It was a great move.

-The pass by McLeod...

-..was perfectly judged

-for Jordan White.

-Robbie Evans was the first to

-the ball to beat the goalkeeper.

-Saraiva, the Woking goalscorer,

-tries his luck once again.

-Two good saves in quick succession

-by Dunn.

-Dunn has retained his place today

-after coming on on New Year's Day.

-Murtagh has a go from distance.

-That's another great save by Dunn.

-Hall blazed over the crossbar

-with Carrington in attendance.

-It was a great save by Chris Dunn.

-Rooney. Jordan White

-has plenty of space here.

-Rooney has continued his run.

-Rooney to crown the win.

-He wasn't far off target.

-We emphasized before the game

-that a good performance was a bonus.

-We needed a win today.

-We asked for the basics like

-competing and winning second balls.

-The first half was a bit edgy.

-You could see both sides

-trying to work each other out.

-We told them to go out second half

-and go for them.

-Intensity, tempo, another 10-15%

-and you're going to win the game.

-We deserved the three points.

-We should have won last week.

-We got the three points this week...

-..and hopefully we'll repeat that

-next week and climb the table.

-Wrexham are up to 15th.

-It's North Ferriby United

-at the Racecourse next week.

-It's January and Wrexham

-win 2-1 at the Racecourse.

-That sounds familiar! Waynne

-Phillips is our guest on Clwb 2.

-Wrexham needed that win.

-Are you a happier supporter now?

-Yes, and as we heard Dean Keates

-say, the points were all-important.

-The first half wasn't very good but

-it got better in the second half.

-The goal settled them down.

-Four of their next five games

-are at the Racecourse.

-They play three teams in the bottom

-four. It was an important win.

-We hope for the same next week

-against North Ferriby.

-Great goals and some new signings.

-Is Dean Keates turning it around?

-I'd like to think that he is.

-A month ago, they had a great result

-against Forest Green.

-They lost their way since then.

-I think it will be like this

-until the end of the season.

-They will be safe

-outside the bottom four.

-But this isn't what we expect

-at Wrexham FC.

-They want to be in the top four.

-There's a lot of hard work to

-be done over the next few months.

-Hopefully, next season

-will be the one.

-Time now to look back...

-..as we celebrate 25 years since

-Wrexham beat Arsenal in the FA Cup.

-One of the biggest shocks

-in that competition.

-Friday night was the big night

-at the Racecourse.

-Some past heroes were there

-to celebrate the anniversary.

-There were some familiar faces

-present.

-At 37, in a game of that magnitude.

-Arsenal were league champs,

-Wrexham were 92nd.

-That will live with me for ever.

-The strike, even though

-I watch it ten times every day.

-It gets better every time.

-It was one of those days.

-It made world news.

-It made the papers in New Zealand.

-I have family in the States

-and they were talking about it.

-I told Waynne to pass me

-the ball initially.

-Then I told him I

-was going to smash it.

-I took one on the Thursday afternoon

-in training...

-..with great power

-and a five-yard run-up.

-I tried the same process.

-It didn't go in on the training

-ground but it went in at the game.

-They couldn't believe it,

-I couldn't, no-one could.

-What an atmosphere when it hit

-the net, an incredible feeling.

-When you play with freedom

-and you're not scared...

-..not afraid to do things

-on the pitch.

-There's always a chance

-something will happen.

-We kept on plugging away

-and got the equalizer.

-Mickey hit one of

-the best free kicks you'll see.

-Steve scored two minutes later

-with a fantastic finish.

-It's one of those moments in

-your life you always remember.

-The chance came a couple of minutes

-later and I managed to take it.

-Right place, right time.

-It was fantastic, absolutely superb

-for the whole town.

-I gave my shirt away after the game.

-I wish I hadn't,

-it would be worth a few bob now.

-I've got the memories,

-that's for sure.

-It's great for the club

-and its history as well...

-..that we always get a

-mention even after 25 years.

-Mickey Thomas lost his shirt but

-Waynne Phillips' shirt is here!

-A famous shirt

-from that famous match.

-There's a good reason

-why you still have it.

-The manager, Brian Flynn, told us

-not to swap shirts on that day...

-..because we had a game

-the following Saturday.

-We only had one set of shirts

-back in those days.

-I'm so glad he said that

-because I'll keep it until I die.

-It's nice to have the chance

-to take it out once again.

-We mentioned Wrexham's current

-problems but it was a crisis then.

-They'd finished bottom

-of the league.

-There was a Wrexham Revival

-campaign.

-Brian Flynn brought in local boys.

-Are they in a better situation now

-but out of the football league?

-On the pitch, no.

-We had a great coaching team.

-Brian Flynn, Kevin Reeves,

-Joey Jones. They were superb.

-They brought young players through.

-Something we haven't seen

-in recent years.

-Wrexham always brought through

-young players from North Wales.

-I was given a chance there.

-There's no better feeling...

-..for a Caernarfon lad

-than playing for Wrexham.

-That's where they've gone wrong.

-Attendance figures are up.

-They attract 4-5,000 which amazes me

-considering the quality of football.

-People complained in the 1990s,

-but that team, as we have seen...

-..were an excellent side and squad.

-They played for each other to go

-out and win matches every week.

-That is missing these days.

-A team full of characters

-and friends.

-Can you explain how it felt

-to beat Arsenal, the champions?

-It's a feeling you'll never forget.

-I remember the names

-coming out of the hat.

-As a Man Utd fan, I was disappointed

-we had drawn Arsenal.

-Arsenal had won the top division.

-We were bottom of the league.

-This result wasn't supposed

-to happen.

-The preparations

-would have been the same...

-..for Barnet or Bristol.

-We got together

-on the Friday night.

-We never used to have a hotel

-for a home match.

-I remember arriving at the hotel

-on the Friday afternoon.

-We had a brief chat

-and watched a video of Arsenal.

-I was a bit worried

-about the task ahead.

-We had a meal and went to bed.

-I slept well that night.

-Flynnie always allowed us

-half a lager in the hotel.

-He hated seeing you with a pint

-but ten halves, that was fine!

-Just don't have a pint!

-The evening passed quickly...

-..before settling down

-for the match on the next day.

-It's a lovely story and even

-an Arsenal fan can say that!

-Stay with us as there's

-plenty more to come.

-It's great to share the

-memories of Wrexham's big day.

-After the break, we turn

-our attention to rugby.

-Welcome back as we turn to rugby.

-The Principality Premiership has

-seen a lot of changes this season.

-More clubs, from 12 to 16, and a

-mid-season split for the league.

-We start with the crucial games

-over Christmas.

-It was a successful Christmas

-period for Aberavon...

-..as they moved

-to the top with two easy wins.

-The first came against Neath

-with Joe Gage scoring this try.

-It was the same story versus

-Bridgend as Jay Baker scores here.

-Just two of the sixteen tries

-racked up by the Wizards there.

-The biggest game of the holidays

-was between Cardiff and Ebbw Vale.

-Cardiff looked on their way to a top

-eight place when Ceri Young scored.

-However, a penalty try in the

-closing moments...

-..meant the final places in

-the top eight would be decided...

-..in the final round of fixtures.

-The first game of the new year

-was played at Rodney Parade...

-..as RGC 1404 travelled down

-the A470 to play Newport.

-Newport fullback, Llywarch ap

-Myrddin, took on his former club.

-There was no battle of the brothers

-because Carwyn ap Myrddin...

-..missed the game

-for RGC with an injury.

-When the fixtures were announced

-this was the one I looked for.

-My brother isn't playing but

-I will be taking on some old mates.

-As a former player, how pleased

-are you with their growing success?

-It's fantastic and no surprise.

-The set-up is very professional.

-I wouldn't be where I am now

-without the help of RGC 1404.

-I'm very thankful

-for what they have done for me.

-Worthington is on the left.

-Leach is there.

-Out to Worthington.

-Will he get there?

-He's tackled

-inches short of the line.

-The chance is still there.

-Robin Williams, the tall lock.

-Out to Hughes.

-Hughes is over the line.

-To the left to Robson and Frewen.

-There's space further back

-but they go left.

-The Northwalians are under pressure

-and this could square it up.

-Newport have struck back.

-They trundle forward again.

-What will Adam Jones do here?

-It was inevitable.

-The referee heads under the posts.

-It's a hard-earned penalty try.

-To the left. Robson.

-Frewen chases after it.

-Cross is also chasing it down.

-He takes too long

-and he can't clear it.

-They are under pressure.

-The maul is reset.

-They've conceded possession

-ten metres from their own line.

-This will be a try

-if they can go to the right.

-That's a poor pass.

-It's gone behind the man once again.

-The flanker tries to go it alone

-but comes back inside.

-Llywarch ap Myrddin has scored

-against his former club.

-The black shirts opened up

-like the Red Sea.

-Myrddin cantered over.

-Yardley carries the ball.

-The fancy footwork got him nowhere.

-Leach takes it on.

-There are men on the outside

-who could score.

-Tom Hughes once again.

-The try has been awarded despite it

-looking as if he was tackled short.

-Leach made the break and

-he had men racing to support him.

-Tom Hughes gets his

-second of the afternoon.

-The long black line is preparing

-for the next offensive.

-Newport build again. James to

-the left. There are men out here.

-They spin the ball wide.

-It's a second row and he could go

-all the way with a fancy sidestep.

-Dan Partridge

-stepped off his left foot.

-He made it look easy and

-sealed a bonus point for his team.

-Newport have

-dominated the second half.

-The forwards do the hard work

-and look for space.

-O'Brien goes blind to Jenkins.

-They go right again.

-The try has been scored.

-The substitute, Dan Mock,

-has grabbed a fifth for Newport.

-Newport were the better team

-in many aspects of the game.

-They picked off our line well

-and won the kicking battle easily.

-Disappointed to lose but

-it's another game we'll learn from.

-A great win. You must be happy.

-Happy with the win

-and the way we played.

-We had nothing much to play for

-so we just went out and played.

-It was a great game to play in.

-That's how it looks in the

-Principality Premiership.

-This season, there are 16 clubs

-and the league will split in two.

-This system has been used for years

-in the Welsh football league.

-That's what will be on Sgorio

-next weekend.

-Carmarthen travel to Cefn Druids.

-Carmarthen are favourites

-to reach the top six.

-It's a similar situation in

-the Principality Premiership.

-With one game before the split,

-two teams were vying for one place.

-Lowri Wynn will explain more.

-A huge game at Eugene Cross Park.

-An Ebbw win against Cross Keys

-would ensure Nigel Davies' boys...

-..a top half berth

-for rest of the season.

-Defeat would mean waiting...

-..to see if Cardiff had

-beaten Bedwas in the capital.

-The Ebbw scrum was too strong and

-the Keys eight had to yield there.

-An easy kick for Josh Lewis

-for Ebbw Vale.

-It's another solid scrum.

-That wasn't the best pass

-but it didn't go forward.

-Thomas felt that tackle.

-We are right on halfway.

-Cornock tried to kick through

-but it was held on the ground.

-Another dubious decision.

-Is this the kick that secures

-Ebbw Vale's place in the top eight?

-The fans are giving you a clue

-that it's over.

-We've been kept waiting a while

-for the second score of this game.

-That means Cross Keys will need

-a converted try to deny Ebbw Vale.

-The ball is being sheltered

-by Kynes. Out to Josh Lewis.

-He's through the gap

-and he's scored the try.

-That try makes it certain that

-Ebbw Vale will have the chance...

-..to defend their league title

-in the second half of the season.

-They are safely into the top eight

-for the rest of the season...

-..thanks to Josh Lewis who has

-scored all their points today.

-It was always going to be

-a really tough match.

-The boys played well

-and defended superbly.

-We have a lot to do but we have the

-chance now being in the top eight.

-That meant a win for Cardiff...

-..wouldn't be enough

-to secure them a top eight berth.

-Bedwas opened the scoring

-with an Adam Williams try.

-Although the score was

-quite close at half-time...

-..Robson Blake extended Bedwas' lead

-with a try in the second half.

-It also clinched a bonus point.

-With four minutes left, the American

-giant, Cam Dolan, crashed over...

-..for a try hat-trick for Cardiff

-but it was little consolation.

-There were nearly 3,000 fans

-watching at Parc Eirias...

-..with Nigel Owens in charge.

-Andrew Williams scored this try to

-square things up for the home team.

-It was a different story in the

-second half with RGC dominating.

-Tom Hughes stormed over

-for the bonus point.

-There was still time

-for a sixth try for RGC.

-Danny Cross scoring to lift RGC

-back to fourth place in the league.

-The first game of the new year

-at the Talbot Athletic Ground...

-..was between first and second.

-Joe Tomalin-Reeves gave Aberavon

-their first lead of the game.

-There was a chance for Merthyr to

-strike back before the break.

-Rees making the break before Rhys

-Downes proved to quick to catch.

-The scrum half giving

-Merthyr the lead.

-Following a fiercely fought tight

-encounter the home team...

-..eventually claimed the victory...

-..thanks to a sterling effort by the

-forwards with Ben Jones scoring...

-..to complete an amazing first half

-of the season for the Wizards.

-Ebbw Vale claim the final spot

-in the top eight.

-Cardiff miss out by a whisker.

-Aberavon lead the way at the moment.

-Lowri Wynn with the table there.

-In the second half of the season,

-all the teams start from scratch.

-Big changes in that league.

-We'll sail around the world after

-the break in the Vendee Globe race.

-We meet the man organizing the

-Champions League final in Cardiff.

-Alan Hamer is a busy man.

-We'll also chat about Wrexham

-versus Arsenal with Waynne Phillips.

-Join us in a few minutes.

-Welcome back.

-What were you doing on 6 November?

-Maybe you were clearing up

-after Bonfire Night.

-The sailors in the Vendee Globe race

-were just starting their voyages.

-They are still at it

-but the end is almost in sight.

-The good news is that Welshman Alex

-Thomson was still near the front.

-Christmas in the southern seas

-and Armel Le Cleac'h is the first...

-..of the remaining 19 sailors

-in the Vendee Globe race...

-..to round the Horn in a record

-47 days and 32 minutes.

-That's it, the temperature is

-good... nice and cold!

-Good health

-to the boat and to the Horn.

-Thank you for providing a route

-through the Southern Oceans.

-Hot on his heels is Welshman, Alex

-Thomson who's in very good spirits.

-# Jingle bells Alex sails

-round the world he goes

-# Single-handed, breaking records

-he's no twinkle toes

-# Oh jingle bells, Alex sails

-so much sea to cross

-# Oh what fun it is to sail

-on the mighty Hugo Boss #

-Amazingly with a foil

-on just one side of his boat...

-.. Alex is closing the gap on Armel.

-Here's the famous Cape Horn!

-Well that was Cape Horn at 30 knots.

-It's quite difficult to film

-and be outside as you can see.

-That's just

-a fleeting glimpse of it.

-I got a good look

-through some windows.

-Great to be here,

-great to be here so quickly.

-Shame I'm not in first place but

-full credit to Armel.

-He's done a great job.

-I'm going to try my hardest

-to catch him up now.

-Armel and Alex are now two days

-sailing ahead of Jeremie Beyou...

-..in third place.

-Incredible!

-Tension, so much tension.

-We'll sort it all out

-after the Doldrums...

-..the next obstacle

-in front of us.

-The task is to increase the gap

-between us...

-..over the coming hours

-and the coming days.

-All good. The last days since Cape

-Horn have been brilliant.

-We've had to catch up all the miles

-and almost get even...

-..with Banque Populair,

-it's been amazing.

-He'll now extend away from me

-but he won't be 800 miles away.

-We'll have to see how it pans out

-when we get to the Doldrums.

-But the hard racing proved too much

-for crucial parts of the equipment.

-Here is the furler.

-The sail was attached here.

-We can see that it's actually opened

-up.

-When it came loose this bit was

-flying around everywhere.

-It was flying around hitting the

-deck, hitting the hull...

-..hitting the deckspreader,

-hitting the foil.

-So my first job was trying

-to stop it destroying the boat.

-I put the boat downwind

-as best as I could.

-It was still flailing

-around everywhere.

-I had to lasso it.

-It cost me a fair few miles.

-It's the kind of thing

-that could cost me the race.

-Welsh bad luck meant the

-French crossed the equator first.

-As the Equator is crossed,

-good health to Neptune!

-But who will be the first

-to get back to France?

-We will follow the climax

-of that race on this programme.

-People are always complaining

-that everything is held in Cardiff.

-A glance at recent big sporting

-events held there would prove it.

-This year, one of the biggest

-footballing events reaches Cardiff.

-The finals of the Champions League.

-There are two finals

-taking place in June.

-The women's final is on the first

-and the men's final on the third.

-Alan Hamer is in charge of it all

-and I went to meet him this week.

-How big is this for Cardiff

-and for Wales?

-As a city and a nation

-there's nothing to fear.

-The hardest thing

-is the size of the city.

-London, Berlin and Milan

-are much bigger cities.

-Transport has been a problem before.

-I think we've found something

-that will work.

-We've done a lot of work

-with Cardiff and Bristol airports.

-And with the railways too.

-More than 20 trains will

-return to London after the game.

-That hasn't happened before.

-UEFA are happy.

-I think the supporters

-will be happy too.

-What's the audience for these games

-UEFA say 200 million people

-will watch it.

-That's twice as much as the Super

-Bowl which shows how big it is.

-I try not to think about

-the figures.

-It's a chance

-for us as a city and a nation...

-..to put Cardiff and Wales

-on the map.

-I hope that after what happened

-in France last summer...

-..more people will think more

-positively about Wales and Cardiff.

-How many do you think

-will come to Cardiff?

-It depends who's in the final.

-Sometimes, the less traditional

-clubs bring more fans.

-We're planning for 200,000 people

-coming into the city on match day.

-200,000 will also come over four

-days to the fanzone and everything.

-It's a lot of people, every part of

-Cardiff will be full.

-It'll be a fantastic atmosphere.

-Sometimes cities are too big.

-It'll be different in Cardiff.

-You won't be able

-to avoid the match.

-It'll be brilliant

-for the supporters.

-The atmosphere

-will be great all week.

-It'll be an experience that won't be

-repeated around the world.

-Cities don't have stadiums

-right in the centre like Cardiff.

-It'll be something different.

-The Super Cup has been here.

-How much help

-was a big occasion like that?

-Without the Super Cup

-we wouldn't get this match.

-We didn't realise at the time

-what a valuable experience it was.

-It went well and it gave UEFA the

-confidence that we had enough...

-..skills and experience

-as an association ...

-.. to put on a big event

-like the one in June.

-Without it this game

-would never have come to Wales.

-It's quite a feather in the cap

-of the association.

-People in the association worked

-hard for years without any fuss.

-Now, all that hard work

-is bearing fruit.

-Lots of football associations

-around Europe will look at Wales...

-..and think if they can do it,

-why can't we?

-As the day of reckoning and that

-kick off approach there'll be...

-..lots of events across the

-country in the coming months.

-The trophy has been on a very

-popular tour already.

-As well as seeing the trophy

-what about watching the game?

-People have a chance of getting

-tickets, like for the Euros.

-They'll have two weeks in March

-to request up to two tickets.

-Then there'll be a ballot.

-Can people volunteer?

-That's been

-popular in the Olympic Games.

-You can be part of the occasion

-without a ticket.

-We want to get 1,000 people

-to do different jobs.

-There's also a chance for an

-extra 500 to be on the pitch...

-..during the opening ceremony

-before the game.

-The process begins in two weeks...

-..for people to put in a request

-to be part of it.

-Over the next two weeks, we'll

-go around Wales to meet people.

-Everyone will find out

-at the end of March.

-It's a fantastic opportunity.

-As in Milan and at the Super Bowl...

-..a world-famous artist

-will perform before the match.

-It's a chance to be on television...

-..with 200 million people

-watching all over the world.

-Is there any chance of a ticket?

-That's the question everybody

-asks me! Tickets are hard to get.

-Unfortunately I won't be able to

-help all the people asking.

-If I can, I'm sure I'll

-have a friend for life!

-That's a very nice way of saying no!

-With five months to go, good luck.

-It's very exciting. Thank you.

-Thank you.

-It was nice to meet Alan Hamer

-this week.

-They are looking for volunteers

-for the finals weekend.

-Details are at faw.cymru.

-There's also a five-a-side

-competition in different categories.

-The winners win tickets

-to the Champion League finals.
