Nigel Hamer - Secretary

Wednesday, 8 September 2010


 


Now starting my fifth year as a Trust Board Member having got involved in the process at our first meeting held in Cwmbwrla. I have been the Treasurer and Membership Secretary since our first Board meeting, latterly also as the Secretary and Minute Secretary, although I have now relinquished that role.

There have been may ups and downs since our formation and I am proud to have been involved in helping to create one of the largest Supporters Trusts in the UK, however, there are many issues which continue to need our attention. I am one of the Board Members on the Trust led initiative of the Fans Liaison Committee which meets on a regular basis with Stadco in order to try to resolve fans concerns.

1. When was my first game.

As a young lad with my father and brother in the Double Decker Stand watching Hull City on the 14th November 1959 in a 0-0 draw with 11000 other hardy souls. The team of Lennie Allchurch, Webster, Reynolds, Reg Davies, Flicka Williams, Griffiths, Nurse, Hale, King, Sanders and Brian Hughes.

2. All time Favourite Swans player.

Has to be Herbie 'Hold it, Hold it' Williams.

3. Favourite Swans moment.

The whole day of the Preston match. Driving up the motorway seeing all the buses, cars sporting our colours. The match, the result and meeting Tom Finney afterwards in the Boardroom.

4. Worst moment.

Probably the defeat at Wembley to Northampton Town.

or

My brother being removed as Chairman by Ninth Floor when he had unfinished business in taking our Club forward to the new Stadium.

5. If you weren't a Swans fan what would you be?

A better golfer.
