Mel Nurse has handed Swansea City Supporters Trust a cheque for £500 as the proceeds of his recent book ‘Mel Nurse – Mr Swansea’

Nurse made the presentation to Trust Chairman Phil Sumbler and Supporter Director Huw Cooze at his business premises in Swansea.

Explaining the decision, Mel said “Directors, players and managers come and go.   But there is one thing that is always constant and that is the supporters.  

“This cheque is to help towards the continuing good work the Trust do on behalf of the supporters.”

Phil Sumbler added “Mel Nurse is already a legend in Swansea for the work that he has done on two occasions to ensure the longevity of the football club.

“This is a tremendous gesture from Mel and on behalf of Swans Trust members everywhere I thank him from the bottom of my heart”

Huw Cooze, the Trust representative on the football club board agreed and said “Mel’s words echo our beliefs in that the supporters have been with the club through thick and thin and donations such as this one will allow us to continue the work we undertake on this front.

“Thank you Mel”
