Report by: Peter Gallagher (Media Sec.) Game: Southampton vs. Gloucestershire (26/11/17) Hot off last weekend’s away win at Gloucestershire, SUWPC’s finest 12 were ready to come out on top once again.

So, it was always going to be a long game for them. The first goal of the game happened in the blink of an eye from Brian Culley, with … Continue reading A Welsh Walkover
