The South Wales football derby between Cardiff and Swansea wasn’t the only local sporting skirmish taking place in Leckwith at the weekend. Little more than a long throw away from the Cardiff City Stadium, two of Wales’ top korfball teams – Cardiff City & Met and Cardiff Raptors – were doing battle at the House of Sport, as Owen Morgan reports.

Jurgen Klopp may have a point about fixture congestion, but you wonder what the Liverpool manager might have made of the arrangements back in the Fifties. Looking down the record of matches between Cardiff City and Swansea Town, as they were then, their two clashes in Division Two in 1951 leap out of the record books. Why? Because they were played on consecutive days. Not only that, the first game was played at the Vetch Field on Christmas Day and the return was at Ninian Park on Boxing Day.
