La Liga, of the the Spanish soccerleague has linked up with the biggest name in the sport. Or, more accurately, the longest name: Welsh team Clwb Pêl Droed Llanfairpwllgw”yngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch Football Club.
The team, based in North Wales and more commonly known as CPD Llanfairpwll FC, is set to be sponsored by LaLiga throughout the current season.
The league’s “LL” logo will appear on the front of Llanfairpwll’s jerseys, which also bear the town’s full, 58-letter name on the club crest.
“This really is an outstanding partnership for us,” Samantha Jones-Smith, the club’s chairwoman. “Not only is it the most exciting collaboration the club has ever had, but it also allows us to improve both on and off the field.”
“We’ve got a great group here who are really committed to bringing success to the club,” said manager Gwydaf Hughes. “This new partnership with LaLiga brings further professionalism to our side, and I know the lads can’t wait to wear the new kit with pride from this Saturday and throughout the season.”
The coastal village, located on island of Anglesey, is said to have the longest town name in Europe. It’s not the original name, but was devised in the nineteenth century by a local cobbler as a way to attract tourists to the area.

true compassion.
after all of the wedding fun
finding the very tiny lizard, lizzy
thinking lizzy was gone
but finding she had hitched a ride in the car by hiding on someone’s dress
finding another tiny lizard, johnny boy
who hitched a ride on someone else’s pants
when we were looking in the trees for someone just like him
making houses for each of them
giving them food and water and air, and hiding rocks and grass
then thinking more about them and what would make them feel happy and safe
after talking, reciting poetry to them, interpretive ballet dancing
thanking them for finding us, hitching a ride, and playing with us for a little while
we decided that we loved them
and because we did
it was much kinder and compassionate
to return them to their lizard trees
to let them go home to their families and friends
to be healthy, happy, and safe
rather than try to keep them for ourselves
there were
a few tears
lots of love
and
a much greater understanding.
“true compassion means not only feeling another’s pain but also being moved to help relieve it.”
