-We have the Prince of Wales with us

-in the studio.

0:00:280:00:31

-No, not him. Brett Johns, who flies

-the flag for Wales in the UFC.

0:00:310:00:36

-Here's what else

-is on tonight's programme.

0:00:360:00:39

-No chance to see Ich Dien on

-Welsh rugby shirts this weekend...

0:00:400:00:44

-..so the attention goes to the

-clubs competing in the National Cup.

0:00:440:00:48

-We'll also be leading you

-among the princesses of netball.

0:00:490:00:53

-The Celtic Dragons start their

-season in the Netball Superleague.

0:00:530:00:58

-of skeleton racing.

0:00:580:01:01

-Clwb meet the Welsh racer throwing

-herself down mountains on a tray.

0:01:010:01:06

-Here's to you, Mr Robinson,

-king of the round ball.

0:01:060:01:10

-Carl Robinson,

-a decade after moving to the USA.

0:01:100:01:13

-Welcome to the programme.

0:01:170:01:19

-That's enough of the royal puns,

-I promise.

0:01:190:01:22

-Brett Johns the UFC fighter is with

-us in the studio.

0:01:220:01:25

-Welcome to the programme, Brett.

0:01:260:01:28

-It's an exciting time for you with

-a big fight coming up in London.

0:01:280:01:31

-How are things going?

0:01:320:01:33

-Things are going really well.

-I'm training hard at the moment.

0:01:330:01:37

-I'm training three times a day,

-six days a week, so I'm very busy.

0:01:370:01:41

-I also have to lose a lot of weight

-before the fight.

0:01:420:01:45

-Everything's going well.

-I'll be fighting a lad from England.

0:01:450:01:48

-I know the Welsh rugby team couldn't

-do the job, so I'm going to do it.

0:01:490:01:53

-Wales against England.

0:01:530:01:54

-You're not the only one who needs

-to lose weight! Let's move on.

0:01:540:01:59

-We have a lot to talk about.

0:01:590:02:01

-Next, Laura Deas,

-the Welsh Skeleton racer.

0:02:020:02:05

-She'll be competing in the World

-Championships in Germany next week.

0:02:050:02:10

-Our first question was how do you

-even start doing a sport like that?

0:02:100:02:15

-I entered a UK Sport talent search

-called 'Girls for Gold' in 2008.

0:02:250:02:30

-At the time I was interested

-in trying a new sport...

0:02:300:02:33

-..but I didn't know if any

-would be interested in me.

0:02:330:02:36

-I went along to the testing

-and then a couple of weeks later...

0:02:360:02:40

-..I had a letter saying

-come down to Bath and try Skeleton.

0:02:400:02:44

-At that point

-I didn't know what Skeleton was.

0:02:440:02:47

-They included a helpful little DVD

-to let us know what we'd be trying.

0:02:470:02:52

-That's how it found me.

0:02:520:02:54

-I used to three day event.

0:02:550:02:57

-It may not be obvious

-but there's a lot of crossover...

0:02:570:03:01

-..between riding and Skeleton.

0:03:010:03:03

-Both sports has an element of

-feeling what's going on beneath you.

0:03:030:03:07

-You make quick decisions and need

-good balance, timing and rhythm.

0:03:070:03:12

-My background in riding helped me

-take to Skeleton quite quickly.

0:03:120:03:16

-You have the push start at the top

-and the driving on the sled.

0:03:190:03:24

-The push start is all about

-being fast and explosive.

0:03:240:03:27

-The sled has to move from stationary

-to as much velocity as possible.

0:03:270:03:33

-That gives you the initial speed.

0:03:330:03:36

-I've always had

-a really strong start.

0:03:360:03:39

-That's the main tool in my armoury.

0:03:390:03:42

-Over the last few years

-my driving has really progressed.

0:03:420:03:45

-Recently, some of my best results

-have comes on courses...

0:03:450:03:49

-..that are meant to favour the

-drivers rather than the pushers.

0:03:490:03:53

-Over time, the more proficient you

-get the more you learn to enjoy it.

0:03:530:03:57

-It's about being

-really calm under pressure.

0:03:580:04:01

-You need to be subtle and gentle.

-It's about finding calm in a storm.

0:04:010:04:06

-Seventh place at the World Champs...

0:04:060:04:08

-..a couple of years ago

-was a turning point.

0:04:090:04:11

-That was my first year on World Cup.

0:04:110:04:14

-After that was winning the World Cup

-in Altenburg last year.

0:04:140:04:18

-Not only was it the first time

-I'd won a World Cup race...

0:04:180:04:22

-..it was also at a track which is

-renowned for being very technical...

0:04:220:04:26

-..dangerous and with

-a very difficult push...

0:04:270:04:30

-..and a strong home advantage

-for the German team.

0:04:300:04:33

-I don't think anybody thought

-somebody was going to get in...

0:04:330:04:37

-..and finish higher

-than a German on that day.

0:04:370:04:40

-To do that was really special.

0:04:400:04:42

-What Lizzy's done for the sport over

-the last four years is incredible.

0:04:420:04:47

-The fact that she went to Sochi

-and won that Gold Medal.

0:04:480:04:51

-She is now coming back

-and preparing to defend that.

0:04:510:04:54

-It's a really good thing for our

-sport.

0:04:540:04:57

-On a personal level,

-she's a good friend of mine.

0:04:570:05:00

-We push each other on

-in a really positive way.

0:05:000:05:02

-Neither of us can rest

-on our laurels.

0:05:030:05:05

-We're always looking for

-ways to improve.

0:05:050:05:07

-Apart from the World

-Championships...

0:05:080:05:10

-..this year is

-about building for the Olympics.

0:05:100:05:13

-Going back to Konigssee is

-definitely going to be a challenge.

0:05:130:05:16

-I did not have a great time there

-in January.

0:05:170:05:20

-Having said that, every time I come

-to a track, it's a fresh challenge.

0:05:200:05:24

-The ice and the weather

-is always slightly different.

0:05:250:05:28

-There are all these variables

-to play into the whole picture.

0:05:280:05:32

-Similar to the Olympics, you have

-to be consistent over four runs...

0:05:330:05:37

-..which is harder than over two.

0:05:370:05:39

-The sport is measured down

-to the 100th of a second.

0:05:390:05:43

-If the first day has gone well,

-badly or somewhere in the middle...

0:05:430:05:47

-..you have to go away,

-refocus and come back the next day.

0:05:470:05:51

-I want to win a medal.

0:05:520:05:53

-I go into every race

-wanting to win a medal.

0:05:530:05:56

-If I don't win a medal,

-I'll be disappointed...

0:05:560:05:59

-..but that's what I'm aiming for.

0:05:590:06:01

-Good luck to Laura Deas.

0:06:050:06:07

-She'll be competing

-in the World Cup in Germany.

0:06:070:06:10

-Brett Johns is with me.

-The UFC Prince of Wales.

0:06:100:06:14

-You fight in a cage,

-but would you do what Laura does?

0:06:140:06:17

-Walking into the cage

-is tame compared to that.

0:06:170:06:21

-Your next fight

-takes place in the O2 in London.

0:06:210:06:25

-Ian Entwistle is your opponent.

0:06:260:06:29

-How big an occasion will this be,

-Brett?

0:06:290:06:32

-Belfast back in November

-was a big occasion for me.

0:06:320:06:35

-But this will be bigger again.

0:06:350:06:37

-It's in London, at the O2.

-It will be a very hard fight.

0:06:380:06:41

-I think I'm a better boxer and

-wrestler on the ground...

0:06:410:06:45

-..but Ian is good at the foot locks.

0:06:450:06:47

-He's world class,

-so I have to be wary of that.

0:06:480:06:51

-You've been doing mixed martial arts

-and you've stepped up bit by bit.

0:06:510:06:55

-Now you've reached the UFC. It's

-been an incredible journey for you.

0:06:590:07:04

-I finished work about three

-or four years ago.

0:07:040:07:08

-I train full time now - three times

-a day, six days a week.

0:07:080:07:13

-It's a lot of work.

0:07:130:07:15

-I've got one dream,

-and that's to wear the UFC belt.

0:07:150:07:20

-It's going to take time and

-a lot of hard work.

0:07:200:07:23

-I'm ready for this job now.

0:07:230:07:26

-You stopped working as a builder

-and decided to go for it.

0:07:270:07:31

-You got the call to join the UFC,

-the pinnacle of mixed martial arts.

0:07:310:07:37

-How important was getting that call

-and that chance?

0:07:380:07:41

-I go to bed every night and dream

-about joining the UFC.

0:07:420:07:48

-I was crying on the phone.

-It was huge for me.

0:07:480:07:53

-I'm enjoying the journey now.

0:07:530:07:57

-It's great that Wales comes with me

-to every fight.

0:07:570:08:03

-I saw you in Belfast

-wrapped in the red dragon.

0:08:060:08:10

-You have a lot of supporters.

-It looked like a great night.

0:08:100:08:13

-It was the first time you competed

-in the UFC too.

0:08:140:08:16

-It must have been a big night

-for you.

0:08:160:08:18

-It was an excellent fight too.

0:08:190:08:20

-I was fighting a lad from South

-Korea, Kwan Ho Kwak.

0:08:200:08:23

-He beat me in the third round.

-It was an excellent fight.

0:08:230:08:28

-At the end, all my fans were asking

-for photos.

0:08:280:08:32

-It was an emotional time for me. It

-took me eight years to get there.

0:08:320:08:37

-It's a chance now for me to keep the

-momentum going.

0:08:370:08:42

-I hope one day to achieve that belt.

0:08:420:08:46

-Your career is developing,

-but the UFC is developing too.

0:08:460:08:50

-It's getting bigger all the time.

0:08:500:08:52

-Going back two years, not many

-people had heard of the sport.

0:08:520:08:56

-But it's got very big in America.

0:08:560:08:59

-How big do you think

-the UFC could get?

0:08:590:09:01

-I think it's going

-to take over from boxing.

0:09:010:09:05

-Stars such as Conor McGregor have

-helped the Celts in Britain.

0:09:050:09:11

-You've met him, haven't you?

0:09:110:09:13

-Yes, he's a great man. He wished me

-good luck before the fight.

0:09:130:09:18

-He's an inspiration to everyone

-in Ireland.

0:09:180:09:21

-I hope I can do the same

-for everyone in Wales.

0:09:210:09:24

-He's become a superstar. He's raised

-the profile of the sport.

0:09:240:09:27

-As his status rises,

-so does the status of the sport.

0:09:280:09:31

-Yes, he's been there

-quite a while now.

0:09:310:09:34

-He's been in the UFC

-for three or four years.

0:09:340:09:37

-He's a big name. I hope they can put

-Brett Johns' name next to his.

0:09:370:09:42

-That's the next step, Brett.

-We could talk all night.

0:09:420:09:45

-We'll talk some more later.

-It's such an exciting time for you.

0:09:450:09:49

-Thank you.

0:09:490:09:50

-We're turning to ice hockey now.

0:09:510:09:53

-The Devils and the Giants

-have been head to head all season.

0:09:530:09:57

-They've been competing for top spot

-in the Elite Ice Hockey League.

0:09:570:10:01

-This weekend they meet twice in

-Northern Ireland.

0:10:020:10:05

-What a weekend

-for the Devils in Belfast.

0:10:090:10:12

-Cardiff won 4-3 on Friday night

-and it went well on Saturday too.

0:10:120:10:16

-Guillaume Doucet scored four minutes

-into the first period.

0:10:160:10:20

-It got even better for the visitors

-in the second period.

0:10:230:10:26

-Patrick Asselin doubled the

-advantage for the Devils.

0:10:260:10:30

-As you would expect for two teams

-battling for the title...

0:10:310:10:35

-..it was extremely competitive.

0:10:350:10:37

-Unfortunately, it was too

-competitive at times...

0:10:370:10:40

-..with coach Andrew Lord

-in the thick of it for the Devils.

0:10:400:10:44

-Ryan Martinelli went for it with

-the officials sensible keeping away.

0:10:440:10:50

-When it was all over, both of them

-were sent off the ice to cool down.

0:10:510:10:55

-Back to the game, and yes, there was

-one going on amongst the fighting.

0:10:570:11:01

-Belfast were back in it as Blair

-Riley struck for the home side.

0:11:010:11:07

-David Rutherford then took advantage

-after an infringement.

0:11:080:11:11

-From the penalty, Rutherford beat

-Ben Bowns in the Cardiff goal.

0:11:110:11:15

-The Devils were back in front

-during the final period.

0:11:160:11:19

-Andrew Hotham scored, giving

-no chance to the goalkeeper.

0:11:200:11:24

-There were more arguments

-in the final seconds.

0:11:260:11:29

-Jones was quite uncompromising.

0:11:290:11:32

-No doubt about that decision.

0:11:320:11:34

-Undoubtedly, this was a very

-successful weekend for the Devils.

0:11:350:11:39

-They won the two matches

-against Belfast.

0:11:390:11:42

-No doubt either how it would all

-end. With another fight, of course.

0:11:420:11:46

-Everyone joined in

-and the way things are going...

0:11:460:11:49

-..I think the Devils

-won this battle on the ice too.

0:11:500:11:53

-It was an explosive weekend

-but a successful one.

0:11:540:11:58

-Two wins and suddenly, a gap

-has opened up at the top.

0:11:580:12:02

-It's seven points and the

-Devils have a game in hand.

0:12:020:12:05

-Quite a weekend for the Cardiff

-Devils in Belfast.

0:12:070:12:10

-They won both games and

-the fight at the end!

0:12:100:12:13

-Brett Johns is my guest.

0:12:130:12:15

-He's the perfect guy

-to analyse this contest.

0:12:150:12:19

-They love this in ice hockey.

0:12:190:12:21

-Do you see any potential

-MMA fighters in there?

0:12:210:12:24

-Maybe a few stars of the future.

0:12:240:12:26

-I'm not sure.

0:12:260:12:28

-It's easy with a helmet and gloves.

0:12:280:12:30

-It's easy with a helmet and gloves.

-

-I know!

0:12:300:12:31

-I take it you didn't play ice hockey

-when you were younger.

0:12:320:12:35

-Did you play other sports?

0:12:360:12:37

-I started judo when I was four.

0:12:380:12:40

-I also played a lot of football

-and rugby.

0:12:400:12:42

-I played football until I was 16.

0:12:430:12:46

-However, you can't be a goalie when

-you're five foot six!

0:12:460:12:50

-I then had to change sports.

0:12:500:12:52

-Judo must be a big part

-of what you do now.

0:12:520:12:55

-I'm a black belt in judo and a

-purple belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

0:12:550:13:01

-I do various things to help me

-with mixed martial arts.

0:13:010:13:06

-It call comes together.

0:13:060:13:07

-We'll hear more from you later and

-there's plenty to come on Clwb 2.

0:13:080:13:12

-Join us after the break.

-Welcome back.

0:13:300:13:32

-Brett Johns is my studio guest.

-He's the cage fighter with the UFC.

0:13:320:13:36

-We'll speak more with

-Brett later but it's rugby now.

0:13:370:13:40

-A break from the Six Nations

-but plenty of other action.

0:13:410:13:44

-The National Cup was down

-to the final sixteen.

0:13:450:13:48

-RGC 1404 were down in Bridgend.

0:13:480:13:50

-The Bridgend scrum

-looks pretty solid.

0:13:590:14:01

-Chris Williams at the base

-feeds Scrivens.

0:14:010:14:06

-The ball has been

-charged down by Jacob Botica.

0:14:060:14:10

-He's scored for the

-first try of the match.

0:14:100:14:13

-Not for the first time this season

-Botica reacted quickly.

0:14:160:14:20

-He chased it in and grounded.

0:14:200:14:24

-It's a clean line-out

-for the Northwalians.

0:14:270:14:30

-Jones to Botica.

0:14:300:14:32

-Loots with the run and

-he manages to evade another tackle.

0:14:320:14:36

-He's scored the try near the posts.

0:14:360:14:40

-Another strong scrum

-for the Northwalians.

0:14:460:14:50

-Worthington to Jones, the pass

-is intercepted by Scrivens.

0:14:540:14:59

-No-one will catch him.

0:14:590:15:01

-That makes up for

-the charged down kick earlier.

0:15:010:15:05

-Bridgend are under pressure and it's

-a steal against the head. Botica.

0:15:130:15:17

-Loots scythes through like a hot

-knife through butter for a try.

0:15:170:15:22

-Jones to Botica.

-This guy is a real threat.

0:15:220:15:28

-The tackle on Tom Hughes was high.

0:15:280:15:32

-The referee is playing advantage.

0:15:320:15:36

-He's going to have a word now.

0:15:360:15:40

-The flanker is going to see a card.

-It's a red one.

0:15:410:15:47

-He can't argue with that.

0:15:470:15:50

-Another clean catch. Andrew Williams

-sets up the perfect platform.

0:15:520:15:57

-The hooker,

-Rhys Williams, has it now.

0:15:570:16:00

-This must be a try.

0:16:000:16:02

-Rhys Williams

-is under that heap of bodies.

0:16:030:16:07

-The home team are pressing

-but the game is out of their hands.

0:16:090:16:13

-It's a consolation try

-for Matthew John.

0:16:130:16:17

-The backs are ready for it.

0:16:210:16:23

-The scissors move sets up

-Kieran Jones for the inside run.

0:16:230:16:28

-He nearly made it as they go wide.

0:16:280:16:31

-The try has to come.

0:16:310:16:36

-It's scored in the corner.

0:16:360:16:38

-Eight metres from the try line.

0:16:380:16:40

-Rhys Williams at scrum half

-as Sebastian goes it alone.

0:16:400:16:44

-Two Narberth defenders

-bring him down.

0:16:440:16:47

-Will they go left or right?

-Lloyd goes to the blind side.

0:16:470:16:50

-Iolo Evans with the pass

-out to the flanker, Elis Lloyd.

0:16:500:16:54

-Lloyd back inside

-and the try has been scored.

0:16:540:16:58

-Out it comes

-to this exciting backline.

0:17:040:17:07

-Kieran Jones has a man outside him.

0:17:070:17:10

-Griffiths also has plenty of pace.

0:17:100:17:13

-He's off for another try

-in the corner.

0:17:130:17:17

-That was easy.

0:17:170:17:20

-Allen, Batcup, Sebastian.

0:17:220:17:26

-The passing is excellent and

-the gap opens up for the score.

0:17:260:17:29

-Chris Banfield scores the try.

0:17:290:17:32

-Pontypridd are within

-seven yards of the try line.

0:17:360:17:40

-The rolling maul is being held

-by Huw Dowden, the hooker.

0:17:400:17:45

-They are still driving forward.

0:17:480:17:50

-Huw Dowden claims

-the first try of the game.

0:17:500:17:54

-Evans to Sweeney.

0:17:560:17:58

-Good play by Lockyer.

0:17:580:18:00

-Coombes has support on the wing.

0:18:000:18:04

-Lewis I Williams.

0:18:040:18:07

-Pontypridd are ringing up

-the phases again.

0:18:080:18:11

-This is a chance to spread it.

0:18:140:18:17

-Lockyer to

-the substitute, Hemi Barnes.

0:18:170:18:21

-The substitute has made the line.

0:18:220:18:25

-John Lavender, the prop,

-with not the greatest of passes.

0:18:270:18:30

-That's a poor pass

-by Llywarch ap Myrddin too.

0:18:310:18:35

-Wayne Evans swoops in with a

-kick and chase to score the try.

0:18:350:18:41

-James out to Rhys Jenkins.

0:18:480:18:51

-The ball appears

-on the Pontypridd side.

0:18:530:18:57

-Wayne Evans can release

-Lewis I Williams.

0:18:570:19:00

-He covers half the length

-of the pitch for his second try.

0:19:010:19:04

-What a run by the centre,

-Tom Pascoe.

0:19:080:19:12

-He's still going

-and scores near the posts.

0:19:120:19:16

-The line-out men do their job.

0:19:210:19:23

-Now they can spread it.

0:19:230:19:25

-Fullback Llywarch ap Myrddin

-joins in the move once again...

0:19:260:19:31

-..and scores under the posts.

0:19:310:19:34

-Newport's scrum is solid and

-quick ball releases the backs.

0:19:380:19:43

-Llywarch ap Myrddin

-comes into the line again.

0:19:440:19:46

-Elliot Frewen has acres of room

-out on the wing.

0:19:470:19:50

-He cuts the gap to 12 points.

0:19:520:19:55

-Ryan James kicks ahead.

0:19:590:20:01

-Frewen is there first!

0:20:020:20:03

-Palmer, the replacement,

-is over for the try.

0:20:040:20:08

-A taste of the rugby action

-for you there.

0:20:110:20:15

-There were a couple of big results.

0:20:150:20:18

-Pontypool of the Championship

-won in Cardiff.

0:20:180:20:21

-They had beaten Llanelli

-in the previous round.

0:20:220:20:25

-Merthyr are going well and progress.

0:20:250:20:28

-Holders Llandovery are also through.

0:20:280:20:30

-The quarter-finals await.

0:20:300:20:32

-Time to change the shape of the ball

-now and to netball.

0:20:320:20:36

-It's an exciting period

-for the sport in Wales.

0:20:360:20:39

-5,000 fans watched the two matches

-between Wales and New Zealand.

0:20:390:20:43

-This week, the Celtic Dragons

-kicked off their season.

0:20:430:20:47

-They're the only Welsh team

-in the Vitality Netball Superleague.

0:20:470:20:51

-Lara Catrin has the details.

0:20:510:20:53

-Team Bath were the visitors...

0:20:540:20:56

-..for the opening round of the

-Vitality Netball Superleague.

0:20:570:21:01

-With a lot of

-new faces in the squad...

0:21:010:21:03

-..the Celtic Dragons

-were hoping for a strong start.

0:21:040:21:07

-One of them, Kalifa McCollin

-from Trinidad and Tobago...

0:21:070:21:10

-..scored the opening goal

-for the home team.

0:21:110:21:13

-A former Dragon, Welsh player

-Chelsea Lewis took advantage...

0:21:130:21:17

-..of some slick play by

-the visitors to strike back.

0:21:170:21:20

-Lewis really enjoyed her homecoming

-with nine goals in the first period.

0:21:210:21:27

-McCollin was also

-enjoying excellent form.

0:21:310:21:34

-She landed six goals out of six

-attempts on debut for the Dragons.

0:21:340:21:38

-The Trinidad international's

-goals secured the Dragons...

0:21:440:21:48

-..an 11-10 lead

-after the opening quarter.

0:21:480:21:51

-The Dragons lacked consistency

-over four quarters last season.

0:21:550:21:59

-Despite McCollin adding

-to their lead early on...

0:21:590:22:03

-..the Dragons suffered

-a spell of deja vu.

0:22:030:22:05

-Team Bath powered their way into

-the lead with a five-goal burst.

0:22:060:22:10

-Chelsea Lewis led the way

-against her old club.

0:22:100:22:13

-The Dragons trailed

-17-26 at half-time.

0:22:130:22:16

-After the break...

0:22:180:22:19

-..Chelsea Lewis continued to show

-why she has 56 caps for Wales.

0:22:200:22:24

-That meant more goals for Team Bath.

0:22:250:22:28

-The star from Trinidad

-was just as determined to shine.

0:22:320:22:37

-The goal attack netted eight times

-in the third quarter...

0:22:370:22:40

-..pleasing her coach Trish Wilcox.

0:22:400:22:42

-Team Bath were in no mood to yield.

0:22:440:22:46

-Shantal Slater scored seven times...

0:22:460:22:49

-..to retain the visitors' lead

-at the end of the third quarter.

0:22:490:22:53

-With the crowd cheering her on,

-Kalifa scored four goals in a row.

0:22:590:23:03

-That closed the gap to just six

-at the start of the final quarter.

0:23:030:23:07

-The mountain was too high a climb

-as Slater scored for Bath again.

0:23:120:23:18

-Cardiff Dragons 41-51 Team Bath.

0:23:180:23:22

-The Dragons hope to respond by

-beating Glasgow Sirens next week.

0:23:220:23:26

-Not the result we were hoping for.

0:23:260:23:29

-We played well in parts,

-especially the first quarter.

0:23:300:23:33

-The second quarter let us down

-when we conceded ten goals.

0:23:340:23:37

-That was the difference in the end.

0:23:380:23:41

-I did well without achieving

-my main goal for the game.

0:23:410:23:46

-I executed the coach's plan.

0:23:460:23:50

-There's a lot of room for

-improvement for the next game.

0:23:500:23:54

-Great in parts but the

-second quarter killed us really.

0:23:540:23:57

-That ten goal difference

-ended up being the result.

0:23:570:24:00

-Pleased we managed

-to win two quarters.

0:24:000:24:03

-It's the consistency which we really

-talked about before the game.

0:24:040:24:08

-I was disappointed to let that

-quarter blow out.

0:24:080:24:11

-But it was pleasing

-to see the girls pull back.

0:24:110:24:14

-That's what we've got to take

-out of this.

0:24:140:24:17

-A good two quarters

-and now string it into fourth.

0:24:280:24:30

-Welcome back. Football gets

-our attention in the final part.

0:24:350:24:39

-We'll speak to Brett Johns who,

-like many Welsh people...

0:24:390:24:42

-..spent the summer in France

-enjoying Euro 2016.

0:24:430:24:46

-We'll hear why his coach

-wasn't happy when he got back.

0:24:460:24:49

-Next though, Wrexham

-at The Racecourse...

0:24:490:24:52

-..closing in on the play-off places.

0:24:520:24:54

-They had gone six games unbeaten...

0:24:540:24:57

-..but yesterday's opponents,

-Aldershot, were seven unbeaten.

0:24:570:25:01

-Tilt clears.

0:25:090:25:10

-Massanka is under the high ball.

0:25:130:25:15

-Carrington.

-What a pass to release Rutherford.

0:25:150:25:19

-Rutherford

-with the cross towards McLeod!

0:25:200:25:23

-Dear me, he should have

-done better than that.

0:25:230:25:28

-And he knows that too.

0:25:280:25:30

-Jennings with the throw.

-Shenton back to Jennings.

0:25:340:25:38

-Jennings again.

-Good work from Jennings.

0:25:380:25:42

-His shot was inches past the target.

0:25:430:25:46

-Lund is first to the loose ball.

0:25:500:25:53

-McLeod.

-Lund has carried on with his run.

0:25:530:25:56

-But McLeod finds Massanka in plenty

-of space on the edge of the box.

0:25:570:26:02

-Massanka. There are red shirts

-in the box. The pass back to Penn.

0:26:020:26:07

-Good work by Penn. Rutherford!

-A great save by Cole.

0:26:070:26:12

-Aldershot clear. That was

-Wrexham's best chance so far.

0:26:120:26:17

-SECOND HALF

0:26:210:26:22

-Arnold. Penn heads it

-but only as far as Kellermann.

0:26:230:26:27

-The danger is still there

-for Wrexham.

0:26:270:26:30

-Arnold crosses towards Rendell.

0:26:310:26:35

-Scott Rendell

-puts the visitors in front.

0:26:360:26:40

-Only 20 minutes left

-at the Racecourse.

0:26:410:26:44

-Alexander with the corner.

0:26:470:26:49

-Towards the far post.

0:26:490:26:51

-Fenelon wins the header. Reynolds.

-The ball falls to Kellermann.

0:26:510:26:56

-The ball is in the net.

-A second goal for Aldershot.

0:26:560:27:00

-Wrexham's six-match

-unbeaten run is over.

0:27:010:27:05

-Dean Keates won't get

-to celebrate his new contract.

0:27:050:27:09

-On the second half performance

-it was a fair result.

0:27:090:27:12

-They were by far the better team.

0:27:130:27:15

-We didn't help ourselves at all.

0:27:150:27:17

-We didn't get down the sides

-of their centre halves.

0:27:170:27:20

-We needed to play a high line.

0:27:200:27:22

-If we'd taken chances in the

-first half we'd have a chance.

0:27:220:27:25

-We didn't take

-a couple of clear-cut chances.

0:27:260:27:28

-They were the better team

-in the second half.

0:27:280:27:31

-I don't know what happened

-in the second half.

0:27:310:27:34

-We just didn't perform.

-Credit to them, they play football.

0:27:340:27:38

-They like to get forward,

-get crosses into the box.

0:27:380:27:41

-They punished us. It's disappointing

-after the unbeaten run.

0:27:410:27:45

-We have to look back at it now

-and move on to Solihull next week.

0:27:450:27:49

-The good run is over.

0:27:490:27:50

-Are Wrexham's play-off hopes

-also over?

0:27:500:27:55

-Ten points is quite a gap to close.

0:27:550:27:58

-Clwb 2 will follow all the

-highs and lows over the next weeks.

0:28:030:28:07

-We stay with football next.

0:28:070:28:09

-Association football in the USA

-used to be seen as a bit of a joke.

0:28:090:28:13

-But it's no joke any more, with the

-sport growing every year over there.

0:28:140:28:18

-David Beckham raised its profile

-considerably in 2007.

0:28:180:28:23

-He wasn't the only footballing

-pilgrim. Carl Robinson also went.

0:28:230:28:28

-He's still over there, now

-managing the Vancouver Whitecaps.

0:28:280:28:33

-We met up with him when

-he returned to Wales for a break.

0:28:330:28:36

-It was a dream

-to be a professional footballer.

0:28:400:28:42

-It was a dream

-play in the Premier League.

0:28:420:28:45

-It was a dream

-to play for my country.

0:28:450:28:47

-I managed those dreams.

0:28:480:28:49

-Three years ago I took the

-opportunity to become head coach.

0:28:490:28:53

-After playing for

-Toronto and New York Red Bulls...

0:28:550:28:58

-..Carl Robinson is about to begin

-his fourth season...

0:28:580:29:02

-..in charge of Vancouver Whitecaps.

0:29:020:29:05

-As part of their preparations

-for the coming season...

0:29:080:29:11

-..their pre-season

-at Dragon Park, Newport...

0:29:120:29:15

-..was a bit different

-to the usual one.

0:29:150:29:17

-We had to fast track pre-season.

0:29:180:29:20

-We have a Champions' League

-quarter-final...

0:29:200:29:23

-..against New York Red Bulls

-in the middle of February.

0:29:230:29:27

-We had to get up to speed

-sooner rather than later.

0:29:270:29:30

-Coming to Wales

-would be something different.

0:29:300:29:32

-A fresh environment,

-a fresh challenge.

0:29:330:29:35

-It's turned out

-very successful.

0:29:350:29:37

-The Whitecaps were in Wales

-for nearly two weeks.

0:29:380:29:41

-They had games against teams from

-Cardiff, Bristol City and Oxford.

0:29:410:29:45

-Carl was grateful for the chance

-to use familiar facilities.

0:29:460:29:49

-We've been very lucky

-to use Dragon Park.

0:29:500:29:53

-The Welsh Rugby Union

-have let us use their gym.

0:29:530:29:56

-I call it help by committee.

0:29:560:29:58

-We've been looked after very well

-by a number of parties.

0:29:580:30:02

-I've tried to keep

-the players' minds fresh.

0:30:020:30:05

-As a manager, Carl is very

-conscientious.

0:30:050:30:09

-He's ready to do the

-hard work, the homework.

0:30:090:30:13

-That enables him to succeed.

0:30:130:30:16

-It's his club in Vancouver.

-He's the leader.

0:30:160:30:20

-You see the players and the

-staff cooperating.

0:30:200:30:24

-That's down to Carl

-and the way he's gone about things.

0:30:240:30:30

-I started thinking about coaching

-when I was 23 or 24 years of age.

0:30:320:30:36

-I left Wolves after eight years.

-I joined Portsmouth.

0:30:360:30:40

-Harry Redknapp was the manager,

-a colourful character.

0:30:400:30:44

-I decided then to start taking notes

-of everything.

0:30:440:30:47

-From that moment onwards, my black

-book collection came alive.

0:30:470:30:52

-I think I've got

-about 15 or 16 black books.

0:30:520:30:55

-The plan was always

-to be a coach at 24.

0:30:550:30:57

-At 29, when I moved,

-I was very lucky to get involved...

0:30:580:31:01

-..with Osian Roberts and the Welsh

-Football coach education course.

0:31:010:31:05

-I started my licences.

0:31:060:31:07

-I completed my pro-licence

-when I was at New York Red Bulls.

0:31:070:31:11

-I was ready, I just didn't know when

-the chance would come...

0:31:110:31:14

-..and when I wanted

-to take the chance.

0:31:150:31:19

-Carl as a manager

-is like he was as a player.

0:31:190:31:22

-He was a player who

-thought deeply about the game.

0:31:230:31:27

-He could read the game well.

0:31:270:31:30

-He did the quiet things,

-the important things.

0:31:300:31:34

-They're vital in any team.

0:31:340:31:36

-He was the type of player who was

-willing to do the hard work...

0:31:370:31:42

-..so that the star players

-could perform.

0:31:420:31:45

-Carl played for Wales 52 times.

0:31:470:31:49

-He scored once,

-against Northern Ireland.

0:31:500:31:52

-He was one

-of the few experienced players...

0:31:520:31:55

-..who stayed loyal to Wales

-when John Toshack was in charge.

0:31:550:31:59

-I have nothing but praise

-for John Toshack.

0:32:000:32:03

-He was the one who started it.

0:32:040:32:05

-There were a lot of retirements.

0:32:060:32:08

-He was dealing with a lot of

-nonsense that was going on.

0:32:090:32:13

-He put the building blocks in place.

0:32:130:32:15

-Gary Speed then continued to evolve

-these younger players.

0:32:160:32:20

-Chris taking over from Gary

-has continued that again.

0:32:200:32:24

-All three deserve a lot of credit.

0:32:240:32:26

-Seeing the Euros and what Wales

-achieved as a small country...

0:32:270:32:31

-..made people

-sit up and take notice.

0:32:310:32:33

-When you've got superstar players

-like Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey...

0:32:330:32:38

-..and Joe Allen, it puts a smile

-on my face knowing that when...

0:32:380:32:42

-..we went through the bad times

-people were quick to jump...

0:32:420:32:46

-..on the bandwagon and criticise

-not just now when it's good.

0:32:460:32:50

-There's no doubt that the man from

-mid-Wales is proud of his roots.

0:32:530:32:57

-He's a keen ambassador as he makes

-his mark in North America.

0:32:570:33:01

-I wonder if he has one eye on home

-as he begins another season in MLS?

0:33:010:33:07

-It'll be interesting what Carl's

-next step will be after Vancouver.

0:33:070:33:13

-I'm sure that in the future

-he'll have one eye...

0:33:130:33:17

-..on the main job in Wales,

-the job of Wales manager.

0:33:170:33:21

-I'm sure a time will come

-when Carl will get that honour.

0:33:210:33:25

-Because of his work,

-because how conscientious he is.

0:33:260:33:30

-He will be very careful

-how he develops his career.

0:33:300:33:34

-He'll take it step by step

-to succeed as a manager.

0:33:340:33:37

-I think everyone has a ultimate

-goal. I'm no different.

0:33:400:33:43

-If I didn't have aspirations

-and dreams of trying to manage...

0:33:440:33:47

-..in the Premier League

-or managing my country...

0:33:480:33:51

-..then the first 40 years

-of my life, I'd be changing.

0:33:510:33:54

-I'm very lucky to work

-for a fantastic football club.

0:33:540:33:58

-When they care and want to do well,

-rowing in the same direction...

0:33:580:34:02

-..as you then things

-are always going to work.

0:34:020:34:05

-Before he flew back to Vancouver,

-Osian Roberts had one special task.

0:34:070:34:12

-He presented him

-with the golden cap....

0:34:120:34:14

-..for playing more than

-50 times for Wales.

0:34:140:34:17

-It caught me totally unawares.

-It made me smile.

0:34:170:34:20

-I knew something was up

-when a meeting was called.

0:34:210:34:24

-I usually call the meetings.

0:34:240:34:26

-It's a fantastic honour to represent

-your country and receive a cap...

0:34:260:34:30

-..like that

-from a good friend, Osian Roberts.

0:34:310:34:34

-It means a hell of a lot.

0:34:340:34:35

-Good luck to Carl Robinson.

-The new season starts very soon.

0:34:400:34:45

-Brett Johns is with me

-in the studio.

0:34:450:34:47

-He was also in France last year

-watching the football.

0:34:470:34:51

-You've met Osian Roberts recently.

0:34:510:34:54

-I'm sure you enjoyed

-the summer in France.

0:34:540:34:57

-Yes, it was brilliant.

-There was a lot of Welsh support.

0:34:570:35:00

-I was very lucky to be able

-to watch four games.

0:35:010:35:04

-I saw Russia, Northern Ireland,

-Belgium and Portugal.

0:35:040:35:08

-The matches were brilliant.

0:35:080:35:10

-I know that the support is there

-for me too.

0:35:110:35:14

-I see people wearing bucket hats

-and draped in the flag.

0:35:140:35:20

-It's the same support

-that I've experienced recently.

0:35:200:35:23

-France was brilliant.

-I enjoyed every minute of it.

0:35:240:35:28

-My coach wasn't very happy

-when I got back.

0:35:280:35:32

-I'd put on weight

-from all the food and beer.

0:35:320:35:36

-You weren't the only one,

-unlike me, you've got rid of it.

0:35:360:35:40

-This fight next month at the O2,

-the Welsh will be there.

0:35:400:35:45

-It will be a Wales vs England fight.

0:35:450:35:48

-How big a night will it be for you?

0:35:480:35:50

-Every fight is a big fight for me.

0:35:500:35:55

-This one is no different.

0:35:550:35:58

-Ian Entwistle from England.

-He's a good fighter.

0:35:580:36:02

-He's had three fights in the UFC.

-He won one and lost two.

0:36:020:36:06

-But this is like the premiership.

-You don't get better than this.

0:36:060:36:10

-If I win this,

-I can ask for someone else.

0:36:100:36:15

-I don't want to say who, because

-I don't want to look beyond Ian.

0:36:150:36:19

-But I hope the USA

-will be my next step.

0:36:190:36:23

-It's a big step to America.

0:36:230:36:25

-You also mentioned that one of

-your heroes is ending his career...

0:36:250:36:29

-..at the O2 at the same time.

0:36:290:36:31

-Who is that man?

0:36:310:36:33

-Brad Pickett.

0:36:330:36:34

-I was very lucky to train with him

-about three weeks ago in London.

0:36:340:36:39

-He invited me into his home

-and it was a brilliant experience.

0:36:390:36:44

-I watched him when I was at school

-in Swansea during lunchtimes.

0:36:440:36:49

-I was just starting the sport then.

0:36:490:36:51

-I'm very lucky to be on the same

-card as him.

0:36:520:36:56

-It will be his last fight.

0:36:570:36:58

-It's a personal thing for me.

0:36:590:37:02

-I've gone from being that

-sixteen-year-old...

0:37:020:37:05

-..to being 24

-and competing on his last card.

0:37:050:37:08

-It will be a great night.

-I'm looking forward to it.

0:37:090:37:12

-There will be a special programme

-on S4C.

0:37:120:37:15

-It's been lovely having you

-on the programme.

0:37:160:37:18

-Good luck. We'll be watching.

0:37:190:37:20

-If there's a fight in Vegas...

0:37:210:37:22

-..perhaps we can broadcast Clwb live

-from Vegas when you get there.

0:37:230:37:27

-Good luck. Nice to see you.

0:37:270:37:29

-Everyone in the studio wants to go

-to Las Vegas to watch Brett!

0:37:290:37:33

-Thank you for joining us. We'll be

-back at the same time next week.

0:37:330:37:37
