Today’s match kick-off was held up for 30 minutes whilst the mandatory ambulance was organised. The crowd was left to ponder as to the reason for the delay, as not only does the ground tannoy still fail to function, but the match announcer is also unwell. Get well soon, Eirian. With recent games lacking even …
With a number of players back from recent international duties, we fielded an attacking line-up for this Development League Cup tie with Millwall. Carter Heywood, fresh from captaining Wales U17s, came into the back four and there was no Arthur Parker this evening, the feeling being that he might be getting called into the first …
The Swans kicked off this season’s U17s PL cup competition with an encounter with Wolverhampton Wanderers at Landore. With the exception of goalkeeper Jakub Nowak, all of the Swans’ starting XI featured at some stage on the previous Saturday’s U18 match with Wigan Athletic. Coach Joe Roberts selected an interesting set-up. Although it was very …
Well, this was another academy game we really should not have lost, but tonight our U21 continued the recent theme of throwing away bright positions by conceding soft goals at key times. Tellingly, that’s the 5th time our U21 have conceded 4 goals already this season. The 4-3 defeat could be put down to a …
Swansea City Under 23s travel to Romford this Friday to take on West Ham United Under 23s in a Premier League Cup Group fixture at 2pm. It is the final Group F fixture for Kristian O’Leary’s side, who are yet to win a game in the competition, having drawn three and lost two of their …
Had to leave with the score 1-0 after 80 minutes to get over to The Liberty, but it sounds as though Reading got a late unlikely equaliser. Swansea had gone ahead after 17 minutes. A free header for Cameron Evans at a corner when a Reading defender headed straight over to him. Mason-Thomas missed a …
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 …
No luck for the Swans in the first half – the Colchester keeper made a number of saves, including at least 3 from Cullen. The visitors broke away from our own attacking throw to score against naive defending. We weren’t as threatening in the 2nd half and our play petered out with additional young subs …
Back in Reading for a couple of days, so took a trip to Woking FC to see this PLC game. We went down to a narrow 1-0 defeat in a game with plenty of chances for both sides. Swans blooded more youngsters: Will Rickard & Ali Al-Hamadi started up front either side of Liam Cullen. …
