Just over a year ago this writer pronounced: “Another testing encounter for our young U21s, this time Merthyr Town provided too strong an opposition and took a 4-1 victory. On the balance of play this felt a slightly harsh result, although Merthyr took their chances well and were deserving winners on the night.” Change the …
Our U21s snatched a 4-4 draw at Briton Ferry Llansawel in a friendly at the Old Road today. No teamsheet, a fairly low turnout and we were blessed with a comedy announcer, so not much in the way of information supporting today’s midday friendly. It was an unusual but entertaining match. U-21s Coach Anthony Wright …
Our U21s edged a 2-1 victory this evening in a friendly at Trefelin’s Ynys Park. It was a competitive game in the usual welcoming atmosphere and in great scenic surroundings at Port Talbot. Newly promoted to the Cymru Premier, Trefelin have adapted some of the immediate infrastructure – there’s now a proper turnstile – and …
Our U18 team kicked off its opening publicised friendly today in the sweltering heat at Stebonheath. Our youngsters faced a Llanelli side full of new faces after a relegation to Cymru South and the loss of most of last season’s squad. Terry Boyle remains in charge of the Reds. We featured some familiar players from …
No goals, but plenty to be pleased with for our young U21s squad this evening at Llanelli’s Stebonheath Park. No teamsheet and no team announcements. A reported crowd of 631 were present. Although the substitutions were arranged in 2 bursts, we essentially fielded 2 sides during the course of the night. On show for the …
Another lively friendly outing for our U21s and against what was a strong Briton Ferry Llansawel squad at Old Road. It appeared as though we’d battled our way to a well-earned victory – only for a spectacular 80th minute strike by Tom Walters to seize a draw for the home team. New 1st year scholar Jakub Nowak …
Another testing encounter for our young U21s, this time Merthyr Town provided too strong an opposition and took a 4-1 victory. On the balance of play this felt a slightly harsh result, although Merthyr took their chances well and were deserving winners on the night. We gave a lot of the available squad game time …
A very decent workout for our U21s at Trefelin BGC today in baking hot weather. We won the match 1-0 and in truth could have scored more in the 2nd half as our fitness told over an otherwise hard working Ynys Park side, who finished 4th in Cymru South last season. No teamsheet. We started 4-3-3: …
Another rather young Swans side lost 3-2 to an experienced Cymru Premier Barry outfit, with Iestyn Jones and Sammy Henia-Kamau getting our goals. We fielded another very young side today at Jenner Park. Although we got through the first half rather fortunately ahead with a Iestyn Jones goal, the pressure from a physically and technically …
The U21 got a well earned 2-0 win over Briton Ferry Llansawel’s senior side this evening. The relentless drizzle kept the crowd to a disappointing minimum. It was something of a slog for both sides, although we did enough to deserve the win. We included 4 of the trialists from the Trefelin game and also …
