Was he one of the guys on the turnstile or stewards? We kept the same staff on the East stand most of the time. |
Steward on the big yellow gates. |  |

Steward on the big yellow gates. |
one of the guys was a bit portly and worked on that gate, but I can't imagine he would be mean to Amy. I left the club in 1998 though. |  |

Anyone remember that fat çunt Phil on the main gate by the East Stand.
Not many people have picked on Amy throughout the years but that fuçking prick did.
Fuçking freak. |
Phil. the one with the gammy leg? Well known narky chunt he was. He'd argue with his own shadow. Give someone a bit of power. He used to get stroppy with the gatemen too, refused to let me in one day even though he knew I worked there, just to be the 'big man' which of course he wasn't. The head steward heard the row and came and let me in.
Regular up Penlan Social club he was/is. Saw him a few weeks back in town, still got the same annoyed look on his face.
Edit, Phil was working there before 98 because I wasn't quite 18 yet so it was 83/84/85 when he got narky with me. [Post edited 17 Nov 2018 8:45]

There are some individuals in life that are so hateful, that only by experiencing these horrid types up close and personal, or by having to personally witness another family members distress can someone only fully begin to appreciate just how revolting these personality-types are.
There was an absolute b1tch of a librarian working in Gorseinon over twenty years ago. She was so anti-social and vile to the extreme it was surreal.
In an hateful act of pure unwarranted spite she humiliated an (innocent) mother of a wheelchair-bound disabled child and ordered her to turn out the entire contents of her handbag (theft innuendo) in front of general public members. The mother then wrote about her experience to the SWEP and the floodgates opened wide because a few others wrote in also.
So many people are not wrong. Believe me the 'public-servant' I mentioned belonged on another planet, I encountered her gratuitous o.t.t nastiness myself and you had to see it to believe it at times. People like that you never ever forget in life! |  |

I think he's referring to the time gaps in the original article.
As I said in an earlier thread I was surprised that there was no mention of Harry Griffiths who was a large part of Vetch field and Swans history IMO. |  |

Walter Whittaker our first manager was landlord of the Adam and Eve in High Street when he died of pneumonia in 1917 aged just 37/38. |  |

no you ignoramus, I was thinking of one guy but it couldn't have been in and would have been someone else. I have had a memory recall of a much larger guy who indeed was a rude fokker. | |
