Martyrs TV - Promotion 2012

Merthyr Town FC are a unique club in South Wales in that it is run by a Supporters Trust. A community mutual sports club based in the South Wales Valleys. The past two seasons have been well documented with the football team gaining two promotions to once again be a member of the Southern Football League.

The club now employs a community officer Mark Abraham and through his work the Martyrs TV service has been launched to cover all home matches and provide behind the scenes insights to life at Penydarren Park.

It's a 12 minute documentary based around the final match of last season when the Martyrs required a win for promotion. It's worth viewing as it shows the pride of the supporters in what has been acheived by themselves against all odds to maintain a semi-professional football club at our famous old ground.

The film was produced by Forge Films who are based at Merthyr College.
