His career statistics prove this remarkably wrong. Llanelly officially changed its name to Llanelli in the early 1960s. BSC Margam would have been known as SCOW (Steel Company of Wales) Margam in the early matches. It is now known as BS Port Talbot, and should not be confused with the present Margam C.C. ground.
