Striker Rory Fallon signed from Swindon Town in January for £300,000 after scoring 14 goals for the Wiltshire club. Rory had a slow start to his Swansea career; he struggled to score that elusive goal, after many opportunities and became subject to a lot of criticism from the Swansea fans.

He finally scored his first goal for Swansea – away to Wrexham in the FAW Cup Final – A goal drought which lasted 13 games. He ended the season with 5 goals, including a superb goal in the Play Off Final.

The 24 year old looks a good acquisition, good in the air, effective on the floor, also looks to give 100%. He has slowly impressed the fans, after much abuse when he first signed, with a good pre-season behind him Fallon could be a real handful next season.
