The U21 continued their good run of form with a convincing 4-0 win over Development League North visitors Fleetwood Town. Fleetwood got off rather lightly today.

Against a side that had won its last 6 games, this very young Swans squad responded commendably.

On another day, the …

A pleasing return to form and goals for our U18s this afternoon in a 5-1 at Landore against Colchester United.Colchester have been on a poor run and often looked quite overwhelmed at times today.

A rather strange game for the U21 at a bitterly cold Landore today. 3-0 sounds decisive enough, but the referee’s histrionic performance in the final stages left a sour taste as the match descended into high farce. It was hard to keep up, but match official Corbett surpassed himself by following up Filip Lissah’s harsh …

A battling 4-2 win for our U18s today against a forceful Ipswich side that never gave up.

A very competitive 0-0 draw today in the rain at a miserable Landore against league leaders QPR. With a team bolstered by first team squad members or those returning from injury, we lined up 4-5-1, with widemen Ogbeta and McFayden often pushed up alongside lone striker Kukharevych: Nathan Broome; Sam Parker, Nathan Wood (s – …
