27-02-08: BLACKIE COMMITS TO BAY
In recent weeks the club have received several enquiries from clubs about leading goal scorer Neil Black. That is almost inevitable given the form he has displayed this season. Following discussions with the club this week; Blackie has confirmed he wishes to stay with the Bay and has assured us he wants to do his bit to help us push on for the play offs. He admits it is flattering to be attracting interest but he really enjoys playing for us, in particular the support he gets from the fans. He is ambitious and wants to be successful and given the calibre of player in the squad believes he will achieve that at Llanelian Road. He was also quick to praise the progress the club has made off the field and recognizes that the club's ambitions match his own.
15-02-08: Colwyn Bay FC to host Four Nations Tournament 2008
As further testament to the improvements carried out on facilities at Llanelian Road, the Football Association of Wales have announced details of this year’s semi-professional Four Nations Tournament which include matches to be played at Colwyn Bay FC.
The teams participating in the tournament include Wales, England and Scotland and for the first time the involvement of a representative side from Gibraltar. The matches will be shared around three grounds – Llanelian Road (Colwyn Bay) Belle Vue (Rhyl) & Park Hall, Oswestry (TNS). The full match schedule is as follows:
Tuesday 20th May 2008.
Wales v Scotland – Rhyl – Kick Off: 7pm
England v Gibraltar – Colwyn Bay – Kick Off: 7pm
Thursday 22nd May 2008.
Wales v Gibraltar – Rhyl – Kick Off: 7pm
Scotland v England – Colwyn Bay – Kick Off: 7pm
Saturday 24th May 2008.
England v Wales – Rhyl – Kick Off: 2pm
Gibraltar v Scotland – Oswestry – Kick Off: 2pm
Admission prices for the matches will be: Adults £3 Senior Citizens & Juveniles (Under 16) £1.
This will be the seventh year of the Four Nations Tournament. In the past, the Republic of Ireland has been involved, but this year they were not able to take part. An invitation was therefore made to the Gibraltar FA and they were very happy to accept. Last year’s tournament was held in Scotland and resulted in a win for England, with Wales as runners-up. Wales last hosted the event in May 2003 when the games were played at Carmarthen, Haverfordwest and Merthyr Tydfil. The Wales squad will be managed by Tony Pennock and assisted by Terry Boyle.
