It’s been back to basics at Vetch Field this week, not surprising really when you consider how poorly we defended at Rochdale.

League Division Three – Barnet 0 Swansea City 1 – Saturday 15th March, 1997. Match Report by Jeremy Kivell I’m normally very worried when we have a defender making his debut in a league match. Remember Mark Harris’s first game for Swansea? Yesterday, I needn’t have worried, as Swansea overcame a Barnet side lacking in …
League Division Three – Northampton Town 1 Swansea City 2 – Saturday 8th February, 1997. Match Report By Richard Major. Northampton have a nice enough ground, but sadly its stuck in the middle of nowhere which means that you just HAVE to go to the pub if you turn up early as there’s nothing else …
League Division Three – Swansea City 1 Leyton Orient 0 – Saturday 18th January, 1997. Jeremy Kivell has written this match report. I almost didn’t go to this game, but for once in my life, I think I made the correct decision. Swansea stuck with the same team that beat the Barnet Cinderellas in mid-week. …
