Former Swans trio sign up to SwansAid match

5th May

Former Swans stars Andy Robinson, Guillem Bauza and Federico Bessone will return to Liberty Stadium this month to play in the celebrity charity football match.
The trio each played a part to help the Swans on the road to the Barclays Premier League over the last ten years - with Robinson and Bauza key players during the Swans' League One title win in 2008.
Robinson, who went on to play for Leeds United, Tranmere Rovers and Shewsbury Town, recently retired from football but insists he is looking forward to getting back on the turf at Liberty Stadium.
"It looks like it is going to be a great day. I'm looking forward to playing again at the Liberty for the first time in over five years," he said.
"It will be like old times lining up alongside Trunds (Lee Trundle) again - hopefully I can help set him up for a few goals!"
Bessone added: "I can't wait to get back. It will be great to play at Liberty once again in front of the Swans fans and of course the match is for a great cause, helping local charities through SwansAid.
Bussy, who recently finished a season with Merthyr Town whilst completing his medical degree, scored the goals which sealed the Swans' promotion to the Championship following victory at Gillingham.
The former Swans striker added: "I can't wait to get my boots back on and play in the match - it has been five years since I did that at the Liberty.
"I am really pleased to hear that Trunds, Fede and Robbo will be playing alongside all the celebs. It will be amazing to share the dressing room with everyone on what I am sure will be a fun day."

Tickets for the game are still available. Last year's match attracted over 10,500 fans helping raise more than £55,000 for SwansAid which is spread throughout local charities.
