ANOTHER BRICK IN THE RED WALL #2

MARED RHYS JONES, 23

• Hometown: Waunfawr

• Club You Support: Chelsea and Bangor 1876

• First Wales away:  Cyprus, 2015

• Wales away caps: 12

• Favourite Wales away trip: I’m going to go with an obvious answer here and say the Euros but specifically Bordeaux. It was absolutely unbelievable seeing Wales fans left, right and centre. I don’t think there was a single pub without a Welsh fan in! It just felt totally surreal being in the stadium and hearing the anthem being played at the European Championships! That was easily one of the best moments of my entire life and will take something massive to beat it.

• Favourite Wales away memory: This is a hard one really as there are so many. Having a 2 week holiday in California for the Mexico game was amazing and I even got to visit Mickey Mouse so that was a bonus!

• Favourite all time player: Hal Robson-Kanu, don’t even need to think about it!

• One essential Wales away item: I mean, if you don’t say a bucket hat, you’re not doing Wales away right. 

• Favourite band: Wouldn’t really say I have a favourite band but I do love a bit of ABBA

• Band we should be listening to: Shout out to one of Waunfawr’s best exports, Big Leaves

• One surprising fact about you: I have broken a world record
