A poor 2-3 result against Fleetwood in the Premier League Cup this evening and, sadly, we didn’t perform to the heights of Monday. The portents looked good. We selected a decent looking starting XI and a very strong set of substitutes. The opening minutes were encouraging. Morgan Bates had a point blank shot instinctively saved …
Our U21 pulled back from 0-2 and 2-3 down to secure a spirited 3-3 draw this evening, in filthy weather at Landore. We operated mostly 3-5-2, with Morgan Bates making his home starting debut at this level: Ben Hughes; Iestyn Jones, Arthur Parker, Richard Faakye; Zac Jeanes (s – Kyrell Wilson 59m), Mitchell Bates (captain), …
The Swans clinched a thrilling 2-1 comeback win this afternoon against one of our traditional bogey teams. 2nd half goals by Morgan Bates and an excellent direct free kick by Josh Pescatore won us the points. Delighted for the boys, who showed tremendous appetite. A really exhilarating 2nd half performance won us the points today …
Our U21 can count themselves rather unlucky to come away with nothing from a strongly contested cup game with Premier opponents Southampton this evening. Ultimately, we lost 2-1 – due essentially to 2 passing errors that the visitors punished. Although we pressed hard, we didn’t quite possess the necessary sparkle up front to pull the …
We haven’t beaten our neighbours at this level since 2020 and the hoodoo continued tonight at a well packed Landore academy. The weather was dreadful and the atmosphere was boisterous. Swans lined up 4-3-3: Evan Watts; Arthur Parker, Iestyn Jones (s – Zac Jeanes 73m), Richard Faakye, Seb Dabrowski; Mitchell Bates (captain), Jacob Cook (s …
Our U18 went down 5-0 in the sun against Watford at Landore. We were a goal down before we’d even settled and struggled to cope with 2 lively strikers who frequently exposed our central defenders one on one for pace. Our full backs were equally exposed by Watford’s speed on the flanks. We were 4 …
Desperately disappointing conclusion to tonight’s match with our neighbours. We gave up a 2-0 lead to succumb at the last to lose 3-2. Having completely disrupted our pattern in the 2nd half, Cardiff deserved it, overcoming a 10-man Swansea side that lost its way after half-time. We fielded what seemed a very decent starting XI …
This is a new age grade competition for us and the fixture was not terribly well publicised. We got through tonight’s tie with Newport 3-2 under the lights at Landore, but it was something of a scruffy battle after a confident start. The team was a mixture of qualifying U18 and U16 players, all of …
An exciting end to a keen encounter with Peterborough at Landore today, our U18 snatching a 3-3 draw at the death. Peterborough gave our youngsters a tough game, very quick to pin down our midfield and press high up the pitch. We operated 4-3-3: Sam Seager; Billy Clarke, Osian Williams (s – Kaven Bloniarczyk 89m), …
