Listen now
Description
Our guest this week is former Chairman Bleddyn Phillips. He takes us through how he was invited to join the Board when he hosted a St David's Day Dinner in Moscow!  Once on the Board, he was made Chairman immediately and helped the Board make some big decisions in the Spring of 2012 as we were aiming for Promotion to the Premiership.  Bleddyn takes us through what he is doing in retirement to keep himself busy with his work with the Scarlets and Swansea University.  We hear about how he met his wife and all the glamorous locations he has worked around the world.  London Welsh still has a special place in his heart and we hear why he felt he had to step down as Chair in 2016.  A fascinating insight into a key character who was instrumental in ensuring we had the right to play in the Premiership.
