They shall not grow old,
as we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM

If you are privileged enough to be playing Vets football in Wales today, please spare a thought for one of the founders of it all. Dennis Murphy would have been 80 today and is sadly missed.

🔴 Commiserations to our @LlanelliV O40s in todays play off final against Hawarden O35s as the opposition won 4-2.
A valiant performance and despite todays result we are incredibly proud of our Vets and the progress they make every single season!
Whilst today wasn’t to be, we have no doubts that they’ll be targeting success in the upcoming campaign and we’re behind them all the way!
A massive thank you to our club photographer @JamiePhotos_ for making the trip to Newtown with the team today to capture the game.
