in fairness Cardiff are not a region and don't act like one so they can't expect the rest of their "region" to support them


I'd say that this has changed since Richard Holland's moved there. Regardless a Ponty haven't produced a regional standard player in years. They're engineered to win at semi-pro and nothing more.

But does Blues North & Blues South in Age Grade Rugby constitute regionalisation ?
Herman Tours ... Still the best way to travel !

They can wish for whatever they like, they're not getting a region though. 
The stadium may change, but the dream will remain the same!

I agree with you, but I find it very strange that the mp from the area wants a valley region at Ponty, yet ponty fans dont want to be a Region.

I'm guessing a lot of the Cardiff academy boys who have played for the blues in recent years are ponty boys?

Ponty have always said they want a valleys region but based in ponty, as you say they won't get it though

I am pretty sure that the young Ponty boys coming through the age ranks will want, as all young players do, to push on up  to regional and professional level not stick where they are so that will take them to Cardiff academy
