An Englishman's perspective of Welsh rugby in the 1970's and beyond

Bag om An Englishman's perspective of Welsh rugby in the 1970's and beyond

The rivalry between England and Wales on the rugby field has always been intense.Living near Twickenham, I was fortunate enough to attend many England v Wales games. The fixture was always the highlight of the 5 Nations, as it was then. Invariably England came off second best, but it was always a real pleasure to see the great Welsh and British Lions stars of the day; the likes of Barry John, JPR Williams, JJ Williams, Phil Bennett, Gareth Edwards and Gerald Davies to mention just a few. The Welsh players of that period quite rightly tended to form the biggest contingent of the British Lions.It was also a great experience to witness the fantastic atmosphere created by the legions of travelling Welsh fans. The noise and the singing would be reverberating around my ears for weeks afterwards.This book is a celebration of the great Welsh team of the 70's and an insight form an Englishman's perspective of the folklore that surrounded them and the cultural identity of the nation.
