Rochdale Game Switched

Swansea’s game with Rochdale has been put back three days due to call-ups for the Welsh Under 21 squad.

Stuart Roberts, Gareth Phillips, Leigh DeVulgt and Jason Jones have all been called upon for international duty and as such, the Swans have moved the home game scheduled for October 6 to the following Tuesday – October 9 at 7.45pm.

There is no place this time in the full squad for keeper Roger Freestone with Mark Hughes deciding instead to opt for just three goalkeepers.

The day off from watching the Swans of course gives everyone extra opportunity to prepare for Roger’s first testimonial dinner which takes place that evening in the Marriott Hotel.

There are still a few tickets left for the bash which is a joint event with Glamorgan Cricket captain Steve James. Tony Cottey, formerly of both Glamorgan and Swansea City will provide the after dinner speaking and there will be a laugh provided by a local comedian.

If you wish to reserve one of the last few tickets available, at ร‚ยฃ30 then please call myself on 07768 507695 to order.
