Thats interesting looking at the photo. Having refereed for many years within the Welsh System and moving onto what is now known as the National league in the English system. I would ask the question on how on earth was the Vetch Field a ground which accommodated International Football. The place was an absolute wreak of a ground, I have seen better facilities at local parks grounds. The photo shown makes it look like a cattle pen which is exactly what it was. :occasion5:

Is that shithole still standing or has it been bulldozed to build more rat holes for the vermin to scurry down?

I haven't been anywhere near Swansea since we last played them in front of fans.
