Great atmosphere, fair play, mostly due to the Port Talbot boys - they sang virtually all game. Finished 3-2 to Neath but I spent the 2nd half in the bar, so I didn't see the best part.
Swansea and Cardiff there without any trouble. Pop down sometime - if Neath FC still exist!

I'm not the only one thenI quite often pop along to watch Neath, then spend 45 minutes wondering why I bothered, then head to the bar while my lad watches the second half.
I like the Gnoll as a venue but the standard of football is dire.

I couldn't possibly comment on that, for fear of incriminating myself!

Hello. The only time i've seen Neath in action is during the pre-season friendlies against the swans. I do keep an eye out for their results though, what with the lord playing for them and all. Didn't realise they were in financial trouble, but when their board decided to employ a world famous footballer like lord trundle, they must have realised he wasn't going to come cheap.
