Page "Barry Town F.C." Paragraph 3

On 6 September 1913, Barry played their first ever fixture ; a Southern League match against Mid-Rhondda United at Jenner Park.

The game attracted 4, 000 spectators, including 1, 000 travelling supporters.

Fittingly, the new Barry team would register a surprise, albeit merited, victory, with Barry's Ralph Isherwood scoring the very first goal at Jenner Park just three minutes into the contest.

His second, midway through the second half, sealed a 2-1 Barry victory, in a game marked by a host of missed chances.
