No change to FAW's decision over Barry and Llanelli

The FAW says its decision stands regarding the futures of former European Cup entrants Barry Town and Welsh Premier League side AFC Llanelli after a special meeting was held today.

Both clubs had been refused entry into the Welsh Football League following off-field problems last season.

The meeting was called to consider new information in relation to a previous decision of Council concerning Barry Town United and Llanelli Football Club.

Two-thirds of those eligible to vote at the meeting must agree for Standing Orders to be suspended in order to receive the new information and reconsider the decision. Of the 29 Council Members present, 15 voted against and 14 voted for Standing Orders to be suspended.

As such, the information could not be heard and the previous decision of Council, relating to the two clubs, stands.
