#OnThisDay in 1977, Glamorgan met Middlesex in the Gillette Cup final at Lord's, which felt more like the Cardiff Arms Park on the day of a rugby game! "It felt as though Glamorgan had won, as their supporters sang Welsh songs in the outfield after the loss" - Andrew Hignell

A wonderful tale 🏴
1992: 3 women pen a letter to FAW gen sec Alun Evans lobbying for a women's national team. 33yrs later: Switzerland. No one has seen the letter since. Rumours said Aberystwyth. I convinced @TheAthleticFC to let me go letter hunting. This is the tale. https://t.co/avZ1lDiuMK
