Swansea City 3 Charlton Athletic 0 – Under 21 Professional Development League

This was a hard-earned victory at Landore against a Charlton Athletic side that was top of the Division 2 South table and unbeaten since August.  It was also the U21s first home game since September.    We fielded a strong-looking side, set up as 4-2-3-1: Evan Anderson; Sam Parker (s – Ramon Rees-Siso 59m), Arthur …

Swansea City 3 Charlton Athletic 1 – Under 21 Professional Development League

A very competitive and ultimately very satisfying 3-1 victory today in the Landore sun against a skilful and determined Charlton side. Coach Anthony Wright adapted to the unavailability of age grade international academy players with a youngish but still strong looking 4-4-2 line-up: Kit Margetson; Zac Jeanes, Arthur Parker (captain), Jack Fanning, Callum Deacon; Josh …

Swansea City 1 Charlton Athletic 3 – Under 23 Professional Development League

Not a very encouraging performance, particularly given the apparent strength of our starting eleven.  We opened promisingly enough – Dhanda and Morgan Whittaker each creating chances for themselves in the first 15 minutes. Then 2 avoidable goals in quick succession – the first on 19 minutes through playing in the wrong places.  Possession was lost on …

Swansea City 2 Charlton Athletic 4 – Under 23 Premier League Cup

The Under 23 were undone by conceding 3 cheap goals in 8 minutes to go into half-time 4-1 down. Liam Cullen had earlier claimed a fortunate equaliser when the Charlton keeper dithered over a clearance and kicked the ball straight at him. Poor defending had seen Swansea let experienced big striker Aneke score after just …
