Swansea City brothers 21:42 - Jan 31 with 11007 viewsJack_Kass

With Andre returning, the only brothers I can think of that played for the Swans at the same time, are Len and Ivor Allchurch, any other ones out there?

Of course we can loosely talk about John and Mel Charles, but I think John had moved on by the time Mel was coming through the youth set up.

I think JC had been snapped up by Leeds before playing for the firsts anyway.

Hole's father Billy had been a professional footballer and played for Swansea Town before World War II and his older brothers Colin and Alan had also both played for their hometown club Swansea, but Barrie did not follow the family tradition and instead joined their rivals Cardiff City. He made his league debut as a seventeen-year-old during a 4-3 victory over Luton Town in February 1960 during a season when Cardiff gained promotion to the first division.[1]
Soon establishing himself in the Bluebirds side, even playing as an emergency striker on occasions, he was a vital member of the side, including being ever present during the 1964-65 season. It was during the latter stages of his time at Ninian Park that he won the first of his Welsh caps and was a regular in the side when he was signed by Blackburn Rovers in July 1966 for £40,000. After just two years at Blackburn he moved, this time to Aston Villa for £60,000 in September 1968. He was signed in May 1970 by then Swansea manager Roy Bentley for £20,000 and played for the club for two years before fully retiring in May 1972.
After retiring from football he ran a newsagents in Swansea before selling it in 2004.[2]

I used to play golf with Barrie. Lovely chap.
He told me that was one of the first footballers to wear contact lenses and he didn't want Cardiff to know, so avoided heading the ball in case they popped out. He used to step back, chest the ball down and pass it out. That's how he got a reputation as a stylish player...
