Millwall fan here. Always sad to see the loss of your stadium. I hate modern stadia I prefer grounds like our old one and the Vetch which had character.

Any chance of doing a final video showing the final acts of the removal of the Vetch and its subsequent reclassification as a park for the local residents. I used to live in Glamorgan Street, so the old place is close to my heart.

Any chance of doing another video showing the final death throes of the Vetch and it's new life as a park for the local residents. I used to live in Glamorgan Street too.

Thank you. That was, I am sure, a painful experience to catalogue all that. A superb compilation adding to the pathos shared by tens of thousands of Swansea supporters over the years at the demise of a location embedded in the hearts and minds of supporters from 15 to 99, young and old. From an old Swans supporter, now living in Texas. Kudos.
