On a further note, I managed to find a copy of Graham Price's autobiography in Pembrokeshire last week - dating around 1984. Does anybody know if other former Pooler stars have released autobiographies. Deatils posted would be marvellous!!

Regarding former Pooler players producing an autobiography, other than Graham Price. Garin Jenkins has produced an autobiography (entitled 'In The Eye Of The Storm') and I think there is a chapter devoted to his time at Pontypool. I have not come across anymore. If anyone knows of others then please let me know.
