Way back when - probably 10 years or so ago - I remember posting on a thread something along the lines of "Bale / Ramsey are going to be this era's Charles / Allchurch". Optimistic was I.
Question: Is that true? Did that come to pass? Was the potential realized?
A difficult question for those that have nothing but hearsay, the rambling of an older relative, or the rare gnarly clip of Movietone News footage on Youtube to inform on Charles / Allchurch, but are fully informed on Bale / Ramsey to have one side of the equation.
Will it take another 60 years to have a similar pair emerge from the back streets and the valleys? There was something special in the water in Swansea in the late 1920's thru 1930's to produce the Charles brothers, Allchurch brothers, Cliff Jones, Terry Medwin and others.
