Subject: Some interesting information

My father has just given me his season tickets from season 1946-47 onwards. He always entered the final scoreline and sometimes some comments.

I'm currently transcribing this information onto a database for future reference.

Some interesting snippets:

Season 1946-47 - All Abertillery's games were postponed due to the severe weather from January 18th - March 15th, except the match away to Aberavon on March 1st.

Season 1947-48 - Abertillery lost three players to rugby league, Ray Price, G Parsons & Stuart Llewellyn.

Season 1949-50 - Abertillery changed their colours from their then traditional Blue & White hoops to the current Green & White hoops.

Seasons 1947-1950 - During these three seasons Abertillery undertook a tour during September or October, playing three matches in Cornwall in three days!

MORE SNIPPETS TO COME (when I've got time!)
