I'm guessing that there was a good number of Englishmen playing for them as well as the 2 Welshmen.

Lupton & Thackray

And 2 Welshmen? Thomas and who?

They didn't have anymore. 14 man quota, plus three others.

Expansion working or not.

Didn't they play us at the end of last year with a good 6 or 7 Welsh players and they genuinely looked a good side, I know we didn't play well in that game ourselves. However, surely a team with a good number of Welsh players in who don't do so well but will learn and improve is better then a team full of Jonny Foreigners who pull off the odd coup and finish just outside the playoffs...

Where are they meant to get these welsh players from. London have only just managed to bring local players through after all these years, it will take time.
