West Wales Intermediate Cup, Fourth Round
St Joseph's (Swansea) 6 Pontlliw 1 (att 100)
Having had to change my plans earlier in the day this game, with its 3pm kick off time, was my only option to ensure visits to two new grounds.
St Joseph's are currently playing home games on a floodlit 3G pitch at Underhill Park, in the Mumbles area of Swansea. Traditionally it's the home of Mumbles Rangers but they're currently playing a couple of miles away at Swansea University.
Like my Friday evening game at Rockspur, this is another venue where spectators have to watch the action from the behind fences that enclose the pitch. As the 3G has only recently been installed it's surprising that a spectator area wasn't included.
St Joseph's are going well in the West Wales Premier League while Pontlliw top the Carmarthenshire League, one level lower. It was a decent effort by the visitors, but they were no match for their hosts.
The home side scored three in each half, and could easily have added one or two more. Pontlliw's solitary goal back came at 0-5 down.
