    To be fair that's probably more to do with with how society's deteriorated, rather than McDonalds itself.

    Matt - Charlo was managing the Swans youth team and they needed a friendly match before (I think) a cup final.
    They contacted BP Llandarcy and a match was arranged: we picked a youngish mix of First and Second team players.
    The Swans goalie didn’t turn up so Charlo went in goal.
    I was playing up front in those days: we lost 3-0 <cheers>

    Matt - Charlo went in goal and had hardly anything to do.
    Me? - I played some Welsh League games for a couple of teams, but played mostly in the Neath League.
