Swansea City 5 v 1 Leeds United

39 years tomorrow I was born, no wonder I can't remember it...
 
Can remember like yesterday, scorching hot day, Leeds fans everywhere, they had been sleeping on the beach.

But, what a performance, absolutely battered them.
 
There are only a few other days in Swansea football history that are comparable with that day.
 
A day that will live forever in my memory.
Beautiful sunny day for our introduction into the top flight.
Few pints in the Tenby and an afternoon of thorough enjoyment on the North Bank.
Couldn't really get much better, despite some memorable moments since.
 
With a loada school pals,15 yrs old and excited beyond anything. Incredible day to be involved. From seeing their lot charge through the Quadrant to watching in disbelief as we won so easily, left us all thinking....what a season we were in for.
Amazing day.
