Swans stars pay tribute to supporter.
Swansea City’s squad attended the funeral of a fan who died whilst watching the club play on television.
Life-long Jacks fan Scott Bryant, 22, who had epilepsy, was unable to attend the home match with Manchester United earlier this month because he had a bug.

He died watching the Swans despite his father’s efforts to save him.
“I did everything I could to bring him round, I was pumping his chest until the paramedics arrived,” Stephen Bryant told the BBC.
“We are all heartbroken – he was such a nice lad.
“But we are taking comfort that he died doing what he lived for – watching Swansea City.”
Scott’s coffin was draped in a Swansea shirt and embossed with the club’s crest.
“Our deepest sympathy from directors, players and staff at Swansea City Football Club,” read a note on a wreath at Scott’s funeral.
