City Players who came from Non League.

Originally a Sophia Gardens based club, then went to Tremorfa,
but later settled at Corinthian Park on Llandaff Rd, turn left at the Penhill lights and it’s now a housing estate named Cae Syr Daffyd (I believe that’s it’s name). Play in Radyr now. Google them, it’s a fascinating read. They actually went on a Spanish tour in 1910 and were the first British club to play Barcelona & Espanyol. FA Cup exploits as well. Great story of a really old club.

Sounds like a potential Netflix script

John Lewis. Signed from Pontllanfraith. Excellent at left back or left wing. Disappointingly went to Newport as part of the Nigel Vaughan swop deal. Next to Delaney he's been the best non league signing for City I've ever seen. Bishop comes close.

Going back to Cardiff Corinthians, they’re one year older than the City, being founded in 1898 but I don’t think Bridgend Street can be beaten as the oldest club in Cardiff, began in 1889. Although you could argue that the Corries & The Mish are way older on the ‘still using the original name stance’ given the Riverside & Riverside Albion days.
