Nathaniel MG and Swansea City surprised Francis Greene with a trip to the Swansea.com Stadium for his 102nd birthday.

Francis is a lifelong Swans supporter, who attends as many home games as he can. To mark his 102nd birthday he was invited by chairman Andy Coleman to enjoy the recent game against Blackburn Rovers as a guest of the club in the Centenary Suite.

The longtime fan was collected from his home by club great Lee Trundle in a Nathaniel MG car and driven to the stadium, with the pair having a long chat about his time watching the club, including current and former players and some of their favourite memories following the club.

Francis was treated to a good performance from the Swans as they beat Blackburn Rovers 2-1 with goals from Joe Allen and Jamie Paterson.
