True great of the game and one of my teenage rugby heroes. I totally agree with Allan that "regionalism" has destroyed the local town's financial benefits.

Hats off to Allan Martin

I was a 10 year old when Alan was standing on the street talking to Fran Cotton in Napier during their 1977 Lions tour. Got both their autographs which I still have to this day.

LEGEND !!!!

Doesnt look like he's aged since the 70s

Glory days where we went believe me the pubs were open all day Yes true fans happy Easter days sadly gone 🤫🤫🍺🍺🍺🍺

Was my PE TEACHER AT school in CEFN SAESON, NEATH

I remember well after regional rugby was introduced going to take pictures for the Evening Post at the Easter match between Neath and Aberavon at the Gnoll. They had to delay kick off for more than half-an-hour to let in the massive crowd that wanted to see the game. I’m sure that crowd was bigger than the one which watches the Ospreys!

Ripped the soul out of Welsh Rugby .when they regilnised it .All those great clubs gone 😠

Soo true Alan. Ruined the game
