		Soon the Cardiff Docks area, or Butetown as it is now known, became home to many different ethnic groups - coming from the 19th Century British Empire countries and involved in providing labour for the ships spreading the businesses of Cardiff Docks to the world.
		Today there are still strong traces of the many different ethnic groups which made up Butetown and the area is still a rich source of the history of these people - from the early Irish Labourers who shaped the Docks to the Somali and Yemeni groups who now form the backbone of the community.

		The first game was against Butetown Colts and the lads impressed in well controlled first half which saw superb defence combine with real flair in attack and a 3-0 half time score line was really no surprise.
		To give credit to Butetown they really rolled their sleeves up for the second half and competed for every ball.
		The lads continued to play well but sound Butetown resistance meant that no further goals went in.
