Back in the clubhouse, everyone’s attention is fixed on the screen. The Lions are trailing but Morgan is making an impact, tackling hard, linking play, driving forward. His effort ignites a surge in the match as the tourists begin to claw their way back. A few older supporters recall how Rowlands used to preach about passion and heart, and now, they murmur, they see it in Morgan.
As the final whistle blows, the result still uncertain, there’s a loud cheer—not just for the Lions, but for their own. Addey clenches his fists. “That’s our boy,” he says.
Later, when Morgan’s post-match interview plays, the room falls silent. He speaks modestly, praising his teammates, the crowd, the spirit of the game. No grand statements, just quiet confidence. When he mentions Cwmtwrch, a few eyes glisten.
“He hasn’t forgotten where he came from,” someone says.
Addey nods. “And we won’t forget him.” Outside, the evening is closing in on the valley, but inside the clubhouse, the warmth lingers.
