One thing I would say about Tosh is that I first met him in the Holiday Inn Slough back in 1978 when him plus Malcolm Struel joined my family for a drink in the bar……..as a keen Swans teenager I went to the games room where Curt, Robbie & Charlo were playing pinball etc but my simple Swans badge got their attention & they were first class 👍!!
Boey on the other hand was a bit of a prima dona who (despite me seeing him have his double fracture at Swindon) was a bit of a cock who loved himself !!
Each to their own I guess……. 🤔🤔🙄🤣🤣

Not football related but a great photo nonetheless. My other Grans uncle Dennis Hunt scoring a try against the all blacks for Swansea at St Helens in which they won 11-3. I also have a photo of my great great grandfather playing against the All blacks for Swansea way back in 1905.

Probably the oldest photo of the Vetch as a whole? I've certainly not seen one of the West Terrace before the Double Decker was built

My grans brother Frank Scrine (4th from the left in the back row) played for the swans between 1947-1954 scoring 45 goals. Not sure what year this photo is though!

1949 ...

Cracking, Cheers mate!
 
Cheers Dar! Managed to find it, my great great grandfather Francis Scrine (in the white on the right hand side obviously) playing against the All Balcks in 1905 in which he also scored a try. Again, I know they’re not Swans related but I think they’re cracking photos. Obviously helps that I’m related to them too 🤣

That first photo I think that is Martin Morgan leaning over in the front.
