Llanelli end long wait for Welsh crown

Members

Llanelli AFC were crowned Welsh champions for the first time in their 112-year history without kicking a ball on Friday when rivals The New Saints FC lost.

Treble chance

'Delighted'
Nicholas, whose side also reached the FAW Premier Cup final but lost to Newport County AFC and will enter UEFA Champions League qualifying for the first time next season, said: "I'm delighted for everyone connected with Llanelli and pleased it's done and dusted as we did not want it to go to the last game of the season when we go to TNS." Consolation for TNS is likely to come in the shape of a UEFA Cup first qualifying round place as runners-up, with cup finalists Bangor also entering the competition due to Llanelli's league victory.
