The men admitted the offences after a special hearing which allows a defendant to hear from the judge what sentence they may receive if they plead guilty on the eve of a trial.

Chowdhury was told by judge Mr Justice Wilkie indicated that he would receive 18-and-a-half years and Rahman was told he would receive a maximum of 17 years.

Brothers Gurukanth Desai, 30, of Albert Street, Cardiff, and Abdul Miah, 25, of Ninian Park Road, Cardiff, also admitted the same count, namely preparing for acts of terrorism by planning to plant an improvised explosive device in the toilets of the London Stock Exchange.

Meanwhile, Omar Latif, 28, of Neville Street, Cardiff, admitted attending meetings with the intention of assisting others to prepare or commit acts of terrorism.

Four of the nine-man group are from Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire.

The quartet talked about leaving homemade bombs in the toilets of their city's pubs and discussed travelling abroad for terror training.

Three of the Stoke contingent admitted a lesser, specific charge - engaging in conduct for the preparation of terrorism between 1 November and 21 December 2010 - namely travelling to and attending operational meetings, fundraising for terrorist training, preparing to travel abroad and assisting others in travelling abroad.

Usman Khan, 20, of Persia Walk, Mohammed Shahjahan 27, of Burmarsh Walk and Nazam Hussain, 26, of Grove Street, all Stoke, admitted attending operational meetings in Roath Park, Cardiff on 7 November and in a Newport country park on 12 December.

The fourth Stoke defendant, Mohibur Rahman, 27, of North Road, admitted possessing two editions of al-Qaeda magazine Inspire for terrorist purposes.

The problem is that, after a decade or so inside, these would-be terrorists will have widened their network of contacts and will be even more radical and better educated in making and planting bombs .....

British born = British, babe.

You don't really want us to break down every British person, and what their ethnic origin really is, do you?

covered the induction tecniques used by those recruiting young british guys as part of my degree, these people are merely used as pawns by extremist groups, if you are vulnerable and or suggestable you can be influenced to do terrible things.

Well at least they weren't from Yorkshire this time.

[Kizzy]

Do you get a better class of terrorist in the midlands?

[InOne]

No, but being from Yorkshire, it's not nice to have homegrown terrorists that could potentially be your neighbour

[Kizzy]

its not nice to have terrorists from anywhere..i dont see your point.

[InOne]

What's not to see about it? Just makes it that little bit worse for me. I know it's not nice to have them from anywhere
