Used to see Richie Morgan quite regular on Seawall Road, Joe used to be making a racket pissed in the pubs around Canton. Speaking to a guy from Aberbargoed recently, John Lewis is still about. Saw Ronnie Moore score against Watford, sold soon after.

Games against Chelsea and West Ham late 70s early 80's, were highly charged affairs to say the least ..

Best ever kit, should change the name back to Ninian too, highly disrespectful after the guy was killed in action.

Remember them all well. I used to work at Nat West in Canton and this little lot used to queue up behind each other to pick up their wages every Friday !

How times have changed !!

Ron Healey was my favourite keeper at the time.
My dad took me to my first game in 76 and I remember being gutted that Bill Irwin was playing instead.
