Sir,
Whilst I do not expect to be awarded Brownie points for recognising the picture in the 'Picture Poser' last week, I was far more interested in the one of the Saundersfoot football team of once upon a time, when most of the small boys in the village followed them with real devotion. It has ever been a fact of life that everybody supports a winning team, and that team won just about everything that was going.
I think the year of that picture would have been about 1929, and I used it in my book 'Old Saundersfoot' in which the names of all the players, and all except two of the committee men, are given.
By a strange coincidence, I have been approached lately about a cup winner's medal of that era, found in the debris of a Saundersfoot garden, and a faded picture in which hardly anybody can be recognised, but which, like every picture, tells a story. I am doing a bit of research, asking a few questions here and there and, as British Rail used to say, but not any longer, 'We're getting there', and I hope to produce something in time for the June issue of Pembrokeshire Life.
