I'm not ashamed to say I had never even heard of Nelson, the place or the football team that topped League Division 3 (North) in 1922/23. Quite a downturn in fortunes when compared to some of the familiar names that finished below them. Nelson F.C. are an English football club, based in Nelson, Lancashire. They are currently members of the North West Counties Football League Division One, who played their home matches at Victoria Park, Lomeshaye Way. They are full members of the Lancashire County Football Association.

Aberdare the Town is little bigger than Highworth...though in those days thousands worked in the pits in local areas to it. If you ever get the chance when in Wales drive there on the old road in.......great fun in the lorry on narrow hills leading into the small high street. Aber is Welsh(gaelic) for river by the way....so you have Abergavenny,Aberavon etc.....Ponty is Gaelic for bridge...so you have Pontypool etc. Ponte fract in England literally means old gaelic for fractured bridge....Ponte fract.

Take the A470 coming off the M4 South Wales...juction 32(i think ( signed Merthre Tydfill....continue on this for about 15 miles untill you see the sign for Caergwa and Aberdare....this road is the A4059 and will lead you past Cymbach and into Aberdare......if you continue out of Aberdare this will lead you to Hirwaun one of South Wales high spots and old Big Coal pit(Museum there now) You end up on Head of the Valleys road and this road has a great drive all the way down to Swansea...its like a scenic route to Swansea if you like....Swansea being Abertawe to the locals of course. You can see the route on this link moving the Google North,South East or West. http://www.aboutbritain.com/maps/aberdare-map.asp

Bloddy hell. You're right - and a full house with Scum as well. I would have had a ST for that season - God my mind's gone to shit
