Apparently, this is how the welsh themselves preferred the spelling.

Like most regimental museums, that of the Royal Regiment of wales carries some splendid exhibits. There is one, however, sadly lacking, and that is of a half-time scene in a football match between the WR and the Royal Navy on the island of Cyprus in the mid-1950's. Apparently, the Taffs stood no chance of winning..they were 2-nowt down at half time, so somewhat cunningly they persuaded the locals to ply the Navy lot full of wine. Second half, the navy lot let 2 in and the game was a draw. Somewhere, it is rumoured, is a photograph of this half-time p**s up.
