These players made our ‘ORIGINAL’ dream happen Ladies & Gentlemen all those years back after Harry Griffiths had passed away who I knew so well from the Heathcliffe Club ....they all ‘contributed’ in one way or another and I had the pleasure of watching them ALL represent OUR football Club at some time ;
John Toshack
Tommy Smith
Ian Callaghan
Alan Waddle
Phil Boersma
Colin Irwin
Max Thompson
Fantastic memories of those halcyon days .... never to be repeated ...
Until 2011 at Wembley when my son was captain of Swansea City U11 on the hallowed Wembley turf the day that we were promoted to the Premier League.
STID. Together Stronger 💪💪💪

We were a bloody good side in the 50's and 60's if only we could have won more away games we'd have been top flight easily before 1981 |  | | |

I only started watching in 1974 after Re Election tbh when I was 9 years old Rog ....great times mind we can never get those days back now proper football times & not manipulated by tv etc ....
I met Tosh with my family at the Holiday Inn at Slough before a game at Brentford back in 1977 I think I was mesmerised to spend an hour in the company of a football legend at the time talking about what I was doing at school etc ......😂😂

I played with Alan Waddle many times for Rhayader Town. At the time you could sign for 2 clubs in different leagues. He was with Llanelli, then Port Talbot I think, at the time. But if they didn't have a game he would play for us with a few other Swansea based players.
Bloody good drinker too! Nice guy.
His Mrs was a nurse in Singleton if my memory serves me right. |  |

Great times ... I remember seeing Tommy Smith and Ian Callaghan having a coffee in Mumbles before it was in the papers ... no social media then ... Tommy Smith asked me if I was going to rip the page out of my Welsh text book that I had them autograph! |  | | |

He used to drink like a fish after the game. We had a guy called Clive Kinsey from Crosshands coaching us who brought Alan up, together with some other guys . Also a few from Ammanford. Phil Fisher, Martin Goldsmith, Phil Bowen. Had some good times. | |

Can you remember their names ?
There was big money in the old mid Wales league in those days, and players would travel from afar. | |

Tosh is my favourite Cardiff player of all time, I even 'supported' Liverpool for about a month after they signed him. Oh to be 8 again, the banner on the Grange End used to read
'Jesus Saves But Tosh Gets The Rebound' . One of the few players/managers that was equally loved by both sets of fans. [Post edited 13 Dec 2017 18:21]
