Carmarthen Town AFC is teaming up with the mighty Swans later this month. Town, in conjunction with the Swansea City Supporters Trust, will be holding a Swansea City fans forum at Richmond Park on Wednesday 23rd March.
Swans manager Brendan Rogers will be attending, along with at least two of his players. The Swans, of course, are currently in the Championship race for a place in the Premier League. The evening will start at 7pm and there will be a formal question and answer session followed by the opportunity to meet Brendan and the players and take photographs and get autographs.
It should be an excellent evening at a very exciting time as the Swans push to secure a place in the world’s best premier next season. The evening is free entry for everyone and the clubhouse will be open from 6pm. For any further information please contact Paul Ashley-Jones on 07775820864.
Carmarthen Town AFC will also be holding their annual celebrity dinner on Friday, May 20, at the Ivy Bush Royal Hotel Carmarthen.
This year’s principal guest speaker will be Jan Molby, a superb football pundit and after-dinner speaker. Molby became manager of Swansea City in February 1996, but was sacked in October 1997, along with his assistant, Billy Ayre. He had taken Swansea to the Division Three play-off final five months earlier, but they lost to a last-minute goal by Northampton’s John Frain. Molby was a Danish international and played in the Mexico World Cup.
He signed for Liverpool from Ajax in 1984, becoming popular on and off the field, quickly becoming a fluent “scouser”. He played 292 games for Liverpool, scoring 61 goals and winning two League Championships and two FA Cups. The celebrity dinner has become a firm favourite on the sporting calendar and is always a sell-out.
The funds raised will go directly to support Town’s prestigious community projects. Tickets can be reserved by contacting Jeff Thomas, 55 Bronwydd Rd, Carmarthen SA31 2AP or by phone : 01267 236227) or email: [email protected]
