 BANGOR City players will run out at Farrar Road for the last time on Tuesday in an historic day for the famous North Wales football club. Here Darren Devine of Wales Online talks to club staff about taking on the likes of Atletico Madrid and Napoli at the ground that’s been home for nearly a century.
IT has hosted some of the giants of Europe. And in the past couple of decades, Bangor City’s Farrar Road has been a mainstay in the elite division of Welsh football.
But for those who proudly recall the nights when the Citizens took on the might of Atletico Madrid, or 10,000 crammed inside for a Welsh Cup final against Wrexham, it’s certain to be an emotional farewell next Tuesday when the team run out for the last ever time there.
Bangor fans will be saying goodbye to their old ground when they take on Welsh Premier rivals Prestatyn Town, as the Citizens move to a purpose-built stadium next month.

 ALL-time Welsh Premier leading goal scorer Marc Lloyd Williams questions whether the exiles should have been invited back into the Welsh Cup.
THE fourth round of the Welsh Cup has thrown up another interesting tie involving a Blue Square Premier club, Newport County, who have been drawn against The New Saints.
I, for one, can anticipate The New Saints insisting the match must be played on the conference date as stipulated by the Football Association of Wales (FAW), as Newport are due to play Gateshead (away) in the Blue Square Premier and provide County manager Justin Edinburgh with a dilemma over his team selection for the cup tie.
Wrexham faced similar circumstances in the previous round against Airbus, as the Wingmakers insisted on the match being played on the same day as Wrexham's FA Cup match at Brentford.

 Manchester City fans may scoff but it’s apparent that you can’t just buy success in football, writes Dylan Ebenezer on the Sgorio blog.
NEATH were many peoples favourites - including mine! - to win the Welsh Premier title this season but it’s all gone horribly wrong.
The news that Terry Boyle and Peter Nicholas had been dismissed came as no surprise following a slow start to the season.
The club may only be seven point behind leaders The New Saints but that’s not good enough for this ambitious outfit, as Andy Dyer found to his cost in the summer – sacked despite clinching a place in Europe for the first time in the club's history.
So will it be third time lucky for Neath as they consider their next choice of boss? Well a lot depends on what else is going on at The Gnoll.
