Meet Jack Richards

Q1. List your previous clubs?

In the past I have played Fc Cefn, Johnstown Youth and Acrefair Youth

Q2. The highest Level you’ve played at and with whom?

WNL Premier Division with Cefn Albion this is my first season at this level every season so far at Cefn has been a learning curve but hopefully there’s more to come.

Q3. Your best footballing memory & why?

Sunday League North East Wales cup run at 17 with the Railway to be part of a squad that got to the final at such an young age as drove me on to want more success in the future with the Albion

Q4. Your worst footballing memory & why?

Losing any game is hard to take but even more so when your part of a group of winners but a few that stick out losing to Aston Park in our first season going for the 5 trophies an last season cup final them two stick in my mind.

Q5. Best player you’ve played alongside & why?

This could be a toss of a coin between James Jones an Paul ‘Muncher’ Griffiths but I have to side with James on the basis that when Cefn started back up two years ago he talked me through my first season giving me pointers on what I was doing wrong an giving me confidence when I was playing. This has stuck with me so hopefully it helps me progress even further.

Q6. Best manager you’ve worked with & why?

I haven’t worked under many (only 3) but I think I would have to go with wacky on the basis he lets you know when you are playing poor but there is also praise you are playing well. I believe that this helps to bring success which we have had over the last two seasons an hopefully more in the future.

Q7. The away ground you most like to visit & why?

I’ve always like Llangollen town pitch for some reason decent surface and the facilities to match. I’ve played there a few times in the past an Idon’t think I’ve have a bad result there.

Q8. The best trainer at our football club & why?

Alex and Nathan Williams (the twins). They set the standard with the fitness and I think we all try an get as close to them as possible but i say they’d give Mo Farah a run for is money.

Q9. The worst trainer at our football club & why?

I think id put me into this category as it’s well documented that I am not going to make the gymnastics team in Tokyo 2020. I would also say Jack Edwards for is 5 minutes burst then he’s injured for the rest of the session. It must be the name Jack when it comes to training!!

Q10. The fixture that you most look forward to & why?

Derby games are always the special occasions so Chirk is a big game which we have played them once as Cefn Albion an lost badly so the next fixture will be looking to correct that score line.
