Barry Town United Veterans O45 Title Decider

On Friday 20th March 2026, Barry Town United O45s Vets team take on Llanelli Town O45s Vets in the all important title deciding match at Jenner Park.

Llanelli sit top of the table with 30 points with Barry Town just behind them in second position on 27 points. Barry will need to win with a minimum goal margin of 3 goals if we are to clinch the title.

It is a tough day for Barry Town United Manager Andy Legg as he will be playing for Llanelli Town O45s in this fixture. In his Llanelli O45s team he will be joined by ex Swansea City players Gareth Phillips and Neil Williams as well as current Pure Swansea striker Lee Trundle.

Barry Town will also be using former first team players in their camp with both Damon Searle and Gavin Beddard lining up in Yellow and Blue once against.

Come down to Jenner Park and see if the O45s can clinch the title on Friday 20th March 2026 at 19:45KO at Jenner Park

Match Preview – Colwyn Bay

Barry Town will trade South Wales for North this Saturday as they take on Colwyn Bay at the Blue Turtle Arena.

The high of the Town’s historic cup win is still buzzing around the club as they followed with a 1-0 win over Penybont to secure their fourth successive victory.

Ieuan Owen’s winning strike means he has scored each one of Barry’s last three goals, taking his tally for the season across all competitions up to an impressive 17.

For the yellows, three points would be huge.

They sit two points ahead of Saturday’s hosts, and a win would not only lengthen that gap, but could see them jump as high as third if results fall their way.

Colwyn Bay’s last two games have looked starkly different, with a 3-1 home win over Penybont followed by a 3-0 away loss to Caernarfon Town.

Striker Jordan Davies has 12 goals on the season, good enough for fourth most in the Cymru Premier, so Barry will have to keep him quiet.

There has been nothing to separate the two sides across their last seven league meetings. 

Two wins apiece and three draws in that span suggests we should be in for another close encounter on Saturday.

With just three points separating third to sixth, this is a huge opportunity for the Town to propel themselves into the elite bracket and top off an already successful season
