Latest View from Richmond Park column

The latest 'View from Richmond Park' Carmarthen Town AFC column from the Carmarthen Journal  newspaper -
Friday the 13th was a ‘lucky’ date for many who attended the Carmarthen Town AFC special social quiz night in early celebration of Saint Dwynwen, the Welsh Patron Saint of Lovers.
The evening started with a quiz based on love and lovers - followed by others on football and general knowledge.
The evening was organised by Carmarthen Town AFC Club Shop organisers Ron and Celia Kirkby.
Prizes included bottles of champagne and a meal for four at the Ivy Bush Royal Hotel.
The evening raised more than £400 for the Carmarthen Town’s EMC Services-sponsored Community Programme.
Club President Jeff Thomas said: “The event showed what great community spirit there is in the club. We hope to organise other popular events from now on and hope all our friends in Carmarthen will continue to support us.”

Carmarthen’s fans now stretch over the Atlantic! The club recently received a photo of Patrick Talento, who plays for the Academy Team in New Jersey, USA, aptly-named Dragon Soccer Academy ‘Rush’ after Wales most successful striker Ian Rush.
Patrick is nine and goes to school in Princeton, New Jersey. His dad, Richard, bought him a Carmarthen Town kit via Celia Kirkby at the club shop.
