Treble Radio proudly welcomes

Swansea City Vice Chairman, Leigh Dineen, and executive producer to the film "Jack to a King", Mal Pope joining us. Leigh and Mal discuss the current state of Swansea, the reason to make the film about their past, and what it means to them. We also talk about how the film became a part of the Kicking and Screaming Festival in New York City, and where to watch it State side.





From SwanseaCity.net:





" The Swansea City story - Jack to a King - heads stateside once again next month to appear at the Kicking and Screening film festival in New York. The documentary film has been selected to open this year’s Kicking and Screening Soccer film festival at the Tribecca Cinemas in downtown New York on Tuesday, June 23.





The showing will come just a month after the film premiered on the west coast of America in front of 450 MLS Portland Timbers fans.

Swansea City vice-chairman Leigh Dineen and former Swansea City board member David Morgan, who both feature in the documentary film, will be travelling to America to promote the Swans and Jack to a King to soccer fans stateside.





Executive producer Mal Pope, who will join the duo in the US, believes the Swansea story has the potential to take America by storm.

“Jack to a King had such a fantastic reaction when it was shown in Portland a few weeks ago,” said Pope. “I am thrilled it is now going to be shown to football fans on the east coast of America.





“People in the United States love an underdog story and there is no better rags-to-riches story than what Swansea City has achieved over the past 12 years.”
