Favourite Cricket Club Memories: Winning third division cup and league double in 199?/??. Outsprinting Phil Mitchell (aka Charlie Mapp) over 20 meters in the 2002/03 season. Socialising with the Mitchell brothers (aka Charlie and Mark Falzon) which inevitably attracted female admirers and autograph hunters to the team on their legendary trips to Tenby.

Least favourite Cricket Club Memories: Relegation when manager. Failing to qualify for Europe in the 1997/98 season after a dismal end to the season. Any game when forced into goalkeeping duties. Jon particularly dislikes Tudor Walters' punishing training regime. However he does concede that but for that, he would not be in the magnificent shape that he is in today. 

Funniest Cricket Club Memories: Andrew Phillips saying to the referee "You've sent my brother off, booked me, my old man is on the line why not get the set?" Alan Cunningham (after the same game) "It's a black day for the Cricket Club" "My name is Phillips, I'm off" - Mickey Phillips in a second division game against Saundersfoot in the 1990/91 season.

Things you would most like to change about Football: Stop abuse of referees.

Interests or interesting trivia about yourself or experiences: The kit has shrunk over the years but still fits his barrel chest. Secretary of the club for last eight years. Jon was brought up in the Swansea area and still occasionally struggles to cope with the laid back approach of the Cricket Club side. He has recently started a campaign to visit all the countries in the world by the time he is 40. West Indies cricket professional Henderson Springer stayed at his house when he played for Haverfordwest and the pair were often mistaken for twins as they socialised in the town. Jon believes in reincarnation and hypnosis has revealed memories of previous lives as an American Indian chief and a border collie cross.
