Film - Love Match

It features Arthur Askey as a soccer mad train driver.

It shows clips of Cardiff City playing Charlton Atheltic at Ninian Park. The City ground was obviously chosen as the bob bank was uncovered with a railway line travelling above it.

The film was made in 1955, Both clubs were thanked in the credits, its a piece of Cardiff soccer history, well worth a look should it come around again.

Just checked and it can be found on YouTube. Not sure I'll watch it right through. :hehe:

What channel was it on ????

Is it on a loop ?

I think that was The Valley not Ninian Park, looked like two Charlton home games.
