Heavy industry in Swansea in the 1950's would have been massive Docks, Railway, Swansea Vale, local mines, steel works, BP....etc
The area was heavily male populated a bank holiday all the boys on the lash Swansea has always been a big footballing town no matter what those clowns up the road think.

Interesting to see Swansea had 24,000 on Easter Monday while huge clubs like,
Leeds 18,000
Cardiff 12,000
West Ham 11,000, had much smaller gates.

Poll: Sholud Wales rollout vaccination at full speed.

My grand mother lived in William Street ( next to the club shop)
On a match day she would let quite a few through her house and garden and up on to the East terrace.
Back to the fixtures incredible that we played away at QPR on the Good Friday then up to Bury to play the next day. Bearing in mind there were no motorways.
Back home for a home match on the Monday.
Made me laugh at the commentators today talking about squad rotation and fixture congestion over the holiday period.
No subs in those days either.
Incredible.

We did the same under Tosh 1977/78 ...

Good Friday - won away at Reading 4-1

Saturday - won at home to Bournemouth 1-0

Easter Monday - won away at Torquay 4-2

Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎
