Rumney High 5 aside late 70s early 80's

Any one on here remember the 5 aside league on a Friday night In Rumney High School ? Run by Mr Harrision who gave up his own time I played for CCFC I wonder where we got that name Played with Gary Evans, Lennie McCarthy , Dean Robinson , Kevin Baynham ,John Hardwicke if Any of you remember them or remember they days

I ran a side called Dynamo Express, these were great times. Some of the lads I can remember who player for us were Ninners (Maynard), Gary Cox & i'm sure Gary Evans ( who I grew up with) played a few games for us. I played against Lennie & Dean a few times & played many games with Kevin Baynham 0n Saturday & Sundays. What is your name?

I played at Rumney high around that time but it was in league run by caer castell youth club organiser was guy called bryn. And ref was a police inspector.

I Went next door to Rumney High in school,but played for them when i left school at the dates above.

Most of my friends still today went to the above schools and Llanrumney - Good days

Didn't we used to turn Rumney high over in footie & rugby Tone? Your right though mate, great days next door at the illyt's

Didn't we used to turn Rumney high over in footie & rugby Tone? Your right though mate, great days next door at the illyt's

We did in both sports,but at St Illytds we were rugby mad,thats why i joined my mates from next door to play football.

Fitzalan and Llanrunmey were the 2 schools who were the schools to beat at the time - Llanrumney had Paul Bodin in their team at the time.

Yes that's him he run club not sure if did footy but we did go on trips with him to games remember wba particularly. He hsd brother who was there as well.

pembroke allan the iltts was a rugby school back then so the green bottles over the fence didn't have a footie side if my memory serves me correctly.

as for the original poster yes remember those names along with people like rees , cronick , stoney and cooper all great footballers too

rumney high had great battles with llanrumney and fitzhalan back then at footie . When it came to representating cardiff schools the selectors always favoured Fitzhalan pupils for some strange reason . Mel rees (RIP )who went on to play for the city was the best of the bunch from that side of the city . East cardiff seemed to be excluded out of the selectors eyes in favour of central and west cardiff players back then

68 to 72 I was there and I played for school footy team until I left in 72 yes was predominantly rugby but also football, played your lot lost 13-1at your place! I didn't play but played return drew1-1 played in goal. We use to play on a bog while rugby had good pitch.

I was at Rumney same time as those boys you couldnt meet a bigger bunch of twats

Was in Rumney high from 73 till 78 played footie for them during those years st ilttyds never played us in footie my name Mike Rudd

Mike did you play baseball for gower sports ?

Yes mate I did

Mosser1 do I know you

thought i recognised the name

pitty the gower can't raise a side anymore

used to love playing the gower over roath park back in the day !

Who did you play for ....I played for St. Peter's this year

used to play for llandaff and then onto strangetown for a number of years

played up until last year . gave it a swerve this season tho

loved it when we used to get to the silver bowl final most years with llandaff and usually winning it . we never wanted to get to the prem baseball league as we know we would get hammered which we did when we eventually went up -lol !

a great game back in the day in the summer months

Loved the game remember having a good few battles with you in the late 80s still see Phillip jay now and again great bowler also saw young sharky the other week to nod to

wow now there s a name that brings back memories - phil jay ,rayer , sharky and bruv , davies ,billy , sparksy , newman etc

a very decent county baseball side then but not prem quality .llanrumney and caerau were the bees knees back then

as well as the gower loved the battles with tavistock, bridgend street and penylan in the county division !

K R DIFF .............

I went St Teilos and they didnt have a footy team, only rugby.

We used to play footy on break and the teachers hated it, either football or snogging lol

Remember Friday night 5 aside well.Went to Rumney High from 1976 to 1981.Our team was called All Stars.The name was taken from the TV programme where sports men of the day took part in various sporting events except that was called Super Stars.Always remember Kevin Keegan crashing his bike on the track.Could you imagine that happening today.it just wouldn't happen.Our team was.Wes Lewis,John Hardwicke,David Mcdonald,Andrew Mcdonald,and Michael Franklyn in goals.We did quite well but Maynards team were always good.We did beat them once mind.The 3players who always stand out in my memory in my year were Kevin Baynham,Gary Evans and Dean Robinson.You can put John Hardwicke in that group as well,but John was an all round sports man.

Rumney > St Illtyds

In Rumney we was just like Peter Whittingham, we did what we wanted. No rules from pretend bible wielding priests.
