Rhys Wynne

I cannot remember his first football match. I could've sworn that it was Colwyn Bay vs Hayes at Llanelian Road (though why would it be, it was a Northern Premier League game?). But my second game was as clear as day. Colwyn Bay vs Frickley Athletic, 2-0 defeat from his hometown team, sendings off for Graham Robers & Dave Fuller, and - soon after - I was hooked.

Since my time as a small 13 year old boy, to a 20 something year old man, I have followed my beloved hometown team around the country, which lead to questions - "Why are you going to Durham City away?", "Why are you spending £70 on a train ticket to go to Bishop's Stortford?", "Why are you sacrificing Liverpool tickets for a match against Cammell Lairds?". The reason? Non League Football, like a saline drip, gets in your blood. It's not the most flashiest or best football, but by goodness it's a football I'm proud to be a part of.

I'm Rhys, and I own You're Supposed To Be At Home. I also have a personal blog and I part own a brewery. I work as an SEO and usually can be found ranting on the subject on my personal twitter account @rhyswynne.

Ibrox – Glasgow Rangers

Glasgow Rangers – 0 Stirling Albion – 0 Scottish League Division 3 – 23rd March 2013 So the second game in the “Three Games in 24 hours” many Welsh fans were undertaking was one that in the time of the draw many people would not have expected to occur. You see, much has been written [...]

Hampden Park – Scotland

Scotland – 1 Wales – 2 World Cup 2014 Qualification: UEFA Group A – 24th March 2013 If you have been following this blog to almost stalkerish levels (or – more than likely – I told you), you may be aware of a few posts missing, but probably the biggest one being Bulgaria away at [...]

The Greene King Stadium – Hinckley United

20 Jan

Hinckley United – 1 Colwyn Bay – 3 So ever since that defeat to Chester Colwyn Bay have been on a bit of a downturn. The early season optimism was replaced with a run of defeats that saw us slump down the table. Even a victory against Warrington Town & taking the first points off [...]
