The Merthyr Tydfil League is a football league covering the town of Merthyr Tydfil and surrounding areas in Merthyr Tydfil County Borough, South Wales. The league is in the seventh tier of the Welsh football league system.
Divisions
[edit]The league is composed of one division. It has previous operated with multiple divisions. In the 1990s the league operated with three senior divisions, and a second tier division operated up until the 2016–17 season. Following on from this the league suffered from a lack of clubs, with only seven clubs completing the 2018–19 season, and ten, including two reserve sides making up the league for the 2019–20 season. For the 2020–21 season the league was not planned to function with eight of the league's teams instead being admitted to the Aberdare Valley League. The league returned for the 2021-22 season with a Premier Division of five clubs and a First Division of seven clubs. For the 2022-23 season, the league changed to just a Premier Division, sponsored by RTM Brickwork.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
