Heroes and Headlines: St Helen's: A Tribute (Part 3)
Tell us what you think of this episode
In this the final episode in tribute to the St Helen's ground Richard Bentley talks us through some of the great names who have played at the ground. We discuss the number of steps from the pavilion to the playing surface which is mentioned regularly by players who played there and Richard recites the poem written about the ground by one of cricket's greatest commentators John Arlott.
He finishes with his thoughts about and hopes for the ground and some stories about previous Glamorgan players Tony Cottee, Steve Watkin and Lawrence Williams.
We hope you have enjoyed these three episodes we have dedicated to this wonderful ground.
