DMFM soundtrack

By Chairman Mao -

We asked Phil Matsell the question “If Merthyr Town FC was a film which 10 songs would make up the soundtrack?” and here’s his suggestions which look mighty fine to us;

 

Next to Nothing – Fat Boy Slim

 

Weekender – Flowered Up

 

What good am I – Darrow Fletcher

 

Something to say – The Action

 

At the edge – Stiff Little Fingers

 

Grown your own – The Small Faces

 

Groove Harder – Stone Roses

 

Gently as you feel – The Flies

 

Trick Shot – Ceasefire

 

Judge Fudge – Happy Mondays

 

A quality selection now all we have to do is finish the screenplay and we’re off to Cannes.

As usual the people of Merthyr Tydfil rose to the occasio...

Following on from the recent post about how a Merthyr Tydfil AFC badge accompanied my journey through the highs & lows of secondary school education in our fair borough, a recent clear out of stuff from my house has brought a few more items of memorabilia from that era of youthful exuberance back into focus. The seventies wasn’t a bad decade to follow the Martyrs. It started with John Charles and that beautiful mauve & yellow football kit. Broken hearts against Hendon and Tooting & Mitcham too. It ended with the heartache of that midweek defeat to Burton Albion and no promotion but in between we had the Chesham United FA Cup disappointment. Penydarren Park was a lot different to the stadium we enjoy today. The ground was only two-sided with just Main Stand and Wank Bank providing any cover so behind each goal there was plenty of space to play football, tell tall tales and run wild. We watched both Match of the Day and The Big Match every weekend and marveled at the b...
