The contrast from last week’s disappointing loss at Blackburn to this week’s Home fixture v Fulham will be particularly stark, however much we are naturally tempted to look at the teams in and around us in the Table as being the really key fixtures. Ostensibly, in comparing the two opponents, one is initially tempted to …
“Jogo Bonito”- The Beautiful Game. Or how “We wasn’t robbed”, but maybe we were pilfered. Pickpocketed, even. So it turned out to be a bitterly disappointing day for all we Swans.Having travelled North in great numbers, and despite long periods where our class shone through, we ultimately failed the test of one of the oldest …
Given the impossibly predictive nature of last weekend, when human tragedy impinged on the hard carapace of the Premier league, and made us all think again, the Swans get to travel north to face a team and game that could well have consequences for Steve Kean, Blackburn’s first year, surprisingly chosen, under-siege Manager. I, along …
We’ll none of us forget the date. A genuinely human tragedy overtook the fans turning up to watch this game. Gary Speed, the young Wales Football Manager but, more importantly, a husband and father, and massively respected decent human being, was found dead this morning.

With no disrespect to our previous guests at the Liberty this season, but the first of the “big” teams arrive in South Wales and they don’t come much bigger than 19 times English Champions Manchester United. Come 5.35 on Saturday afternoon, the White and red shirts will be lining up against one another, not in …
Looking for a Christmas present for someone you know is a Swans fan? Then look no further than here! Swans fan and author Keith Haynes has written a new book called Walking on Sunshine. The book talks about the Swans rise to the Premier League and Keith gives some thoughts on how it has happened …
Swansea produced a memorable performance in a captivating end to end game to hold five time European Cup winners to a goalless draw. Both teams had chances to win it and only great saves from both keepers kept the score line blank. The big news for the Swans today was the inclusion of Wayne Routledge …
We’ve been to some iconic stadia already this year – the Emirates, Stamford Bridge, the Etihad included- but none of those exude the shiver that a football fan gets from Liverpool’s home venue. Go on, say it, Anfield. All over the footballing planet, people will know where you are. From the timeless vibe of the …
