Been asked if anyone can shed any light on the Swansea related questions and comments

Easily the worst game I saw at the vetch the 1-4 defeat by Kiddy followed by getting stuffed 5-0 by Derby

Seen some terrible ones since my first game in 1965, lost at home to Chester on boxing day 0-5 and also remember losing to Workington at the vetch 3-6 I think. But you are right Kidderminster was an awful one as well.

Didnt they dick us 4-0 one year with one of theirs totally ripping us a new one. Edit was a 4-0 home defeat and Melligan was the player in question

I remember that 5-0 versus Chester, it was on Boxing Day and I was a schoolboy with my pockets stuffed with Quality Street from Christmas. I was full of optimism because we were on a bit of a run and were just outside the promotion places. I came away from the Vetch totally crushed.

Nothing changes, eh Russ?

Losing to Southend at the vetch when they scored with 8 men on the pitch was another dreadful one.

Some high scoring games with Workington back then. Saw quite a few of those.

That was a terrible night, JJ Mell8gan was outstanding that night.
I remember

"You are very good, you are very good" being sung towards the Kiddie lot

And our lot had
"You're not fit to wear the shirt"


Now they were serious times.

That 6 - 1 home defeat was my first ever game.

Bo Henrikson was the other one who was outstanding, Danish fella with long blonde hair. Had a standing ovation from the Swans fans when he came off.

I was a mascot that day.

I was a mascot that day.

Awww, brilliant.

Best food I ever had at the football. They fell out of the conference this season.
My folks live near Evesham so the away games there became somewhat of tradition. I for one am sad they have fallen out of sight.

 

[Ringwood]

The 1-4 defeat against Kiddy was one of our worst performances I saw at the vetch. Also the only time I ever sat in the west upper stand. Good view of the carnage.

 

[Ringwood]

Or was it the East stand.. the newer one !
