Yeah English commentary with the analysis (usually with John Hartson) in Welsh, though I always find it quite difficult following the vidiprinter that they have at the bottom of the screen on Saturdays, some placenames are in English, whereas the Welsh ones and places like Bristol near Wales are all weird Welsh names :lol:

You can watch it online :D

I've discovered, learning Welsh, that you can pretty much guarantee that places in England which have Welsh alternatives in Welsh are all cities or towns which existed in some form before the Anglo-Saxon invasion, and those which haven't got Welsh alternatives grew up after.

So Catterick, in Yorkshire, is "Cartraeth" in Welsh, but Leeds, in Yorkshire, is "Leeds".

Manchester = Manceinion

Liverpool = Lerpwl

Gloucester = Caerloyw

Canterbury = Caer-gaint

London = Llundain

Hereford = Henffordd

Shrewsbury = Amwythig

Quite enjoyed it. Couldn't understand a word of it and couldn't work out how to get English commentary on FreeSat.
However, I'm sure one of them called Brodie a t**t. :D

@JohnTondeur: BBC Humberside understands Richard Brodie has left #GTFC having been told he's no longer required despite being on-loan from Crawley. :D
