Fantastic wish I had the chance to watch this pooler team real life 👏👏👏👏

[@robertroberts2666]

PS Thank you for these posts and the memories inspired by them!

[@brendangallagher8087]

And how good a player was Keith Orrell?

[@benrfc]

That move just after 8 mins. Awesome

[@robertroberts870]

TGR Davies is one of the nicest and fairest rugby pundits around!

[@gow03333]

Robert, hope you are well , last time I saw you was coming home on the train after an international. Do you have any early Pontypool circa 1970, long shot I know as TV coverage would have been reserved for international matches . many thanks Dai Gow

[@MrPenyclawdd]

Sorry Dai no - only the old mans one 1970 v maesteg. After that i keep getting asked to copy tapes from pooler fans. hope you well.

My best and lasting memory of Phil May was watching him get smashed into the ground and being helped off the field playing for Wales v Samoa.

[@tommyhassan3545]

Ringo cd play a bit

[@robertroberts2666]

My favourite team? Pontypridd or any side that plays "We beat the '72 All Blacks!" Not that the Turks like to boast mind you!

[@robertroberts870]

This Pontypridd fan supports whoever plays Llanelli! It's just a pity that it wasn't a whitewash!

[@AC-xz6bo]

Look at the crowd .welsh rugby is doomed. You can't expect international longevity with our current domestic base

[@robertroberts2666]

Iam sorry but, as a valley boy, I cannot identify with the cities of Newport, Cardiff, Swansea or the piddly, one-horse town of Scarletsville!

[@robertroberts870]

Any team that contains a certain G.Price deserves the utmost respect! Unfortunately, the Turks and their supporters don't respect anyone!

[@jonathanphillips5794]

Dai Bish got a standing ovation from the Llanelli fans when he left the pitch at Stradey in his last season before retirement. We might be one-eyed but we know a class player when we see one! There was always a healthy respect along with the rivalry from Scarlet fans towards Pooler. We respected the Pooler legends and after speaking to many Pooler fans they were very honest decent people. Shame you can't be more positive about the great old Welsh club teams and their supporters.

[@MrPenyclawdd]

rubbish you got smashed!!

Rob Davies Typical whinging Turk eh?
