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.
