Throwback Thursday: Bobby Charlton, then a manager at Preston North End Football Club, watches intently as the British Home Championship match between Wales and England unfolds at Ninian Park in 1953. Meanwhile, at the BBC studios, Radio Broadcaster Presenter Roy Plumley prepares to bring the action to listeners. Fast forward to 1899, a cabinet card captures the attention with an intriguing tattooed man, while another image of Ninian Park showcases Wales' victory over England during the same championship. In 1895, Lincoln City secured a dominating 6-0 win against Nuneaton Borough in the FA Cup. Lastly, George Bellas Rothera, a solicitor from Auber, adds a touch of history to this collection of vintage images.
