Andrew Mumford
Andrew joined the Reds from Port Talbot Town on 22nd January 2007, just a week after scoring the winning goal for the Steelmen against Swansea City in the FAW Premier Cup.
A local boy from Neath, Andrew overcame diabetes to become a professional footballer when he signed full time at Swansea a few years ago. He took some time to get into the first team, at the Vetch after going out on loan to Llanelli and Haverfordwest. But, when he returned and was given a chance by the Swans, he grasped the opportunity with both hands, and made himself an integral part of the team, even being named the club's Player of the Year in Season 2002/2003. That was the highlight of Mumford's short professional career though and after appearing over 60 times for the Whites, he was shipped on loan to Conference side Aldershot before returning to the League of Wales with Port Talbot in 2004/2005.
He then moved to Aberystwyth before making his Port Talbot bow, but was released from Park Avenue in 2005. After a year away from the game, he returned to the Remax Stadium in August 2006 but after 18 League and League Cup appearances, and 3 goals he joined the Reds. The Stebonheath faithful will be hoping that he can regain his fitness and the form he showed down the road in Swansea a few years ago.
Andrew is able to play at the heart of the defence, but his best work comes in the central midfield role, where his presence, hard tackling and strong shooting abilities should make him invaluable. Also a dead ball specialist, he scored a number of spectacular goals from free kicks at Swansea, as well as from open play.
