Allan's reaction to the news;
"As you and any Welshman knows, we will for life ,support rugby, anywhere and anyhow, it is a great sport that is for all
to enjoy no matter who you are.
I have been lucky to have been involved in rugby from primary school through grammer and Loughor RFC and on to be a proud member of Worcester RFC which I joined in 1971.
The club has been good for my family not just welcoming my sons & daughter but many of the 250 or so children we fostered,
it has been a pleasure to give back something in return.
Thank you for this great honour & for welcoming me and mine to be part of the Worcester Rugby Club family.
Only one thing remains, we will have to PARTY!
Regards,
Powelly"
