    Five Things We Learned from Swansea City's 1-0 Defeat at Exeter City

    From what I can tell we played some decent stuff and created enough chances/scored enough goals to win comfortably if not for a linesman determined that Exeter wouldn't lose a testimonial.

    Should we be concerned?

    Nah. It seems to me that, other than just for general fitness, Sheehan has mostly been using the pre-season to have a good look at some of the younger players, your Congreves and Wilsons. Trying to see if they can offer us something in the season to come before we make further moves in the...

    The Cult Hero Who Lit Up South Wales: Michu's Unforgettable Swansea City Chapter

    He certainly had the ability. No doubt about that. Not sure if the mentality was reliable enough for the level though. There were question marks over his ankles when we signed him in the first place. It's one of the reasons we got him so cheaply. The wife of an old colleague worked in the...

    The Cult Hero Who Lit Up South Wales: Michu's Unforgettable Swansea City Chapter

    I always kinda think that Bodde in the PL would have ended up a bit like Shelvey. Capable of moments of absolute genius, but also moments of complete insanity. Ultimately too mad and/or dim to be relied upon completely at that level, but it would have been fun to watch either way.

    Summer Transfer Window

    I would be very surprised if Galbraith was brought in to play RB. Looks more like a LoB replacement to me.

    Think I read somewhere that his Great-Grandad was once Lord Mayor of Swansea. He certainly seems to be someone involved in a "making connections" sense and does apparently have small stakes in other football clubs. Perhaps he will come on board at some point.

    I note that the article mentions Steve Nash. He's a name that keeps popping up too.

    Summer Transfer Window

    This isn't a new thing with us. Jenkins used to be the same with contracts. It's one of the reasons why we lost both Pratley and DeVries for nothing when we got promoted to the Prem. Talks should start 18 months out from contract expiry. If nothing can be agreed by the 12 month stage then a...

    Summer Transfer Window

    And both were as a result of the way Williams was sending them out to play. It was a tactical choice for them to have swathes of empty space in behind them rather than any particular inability on either players part. Both looked a lot more solid once Sheehan changed things around. Having said...

    Ospreys sign on the swansea.com stadium

    When I was at school in the early 90's the kids used to arrange football matches themselves because the PE teachers for the most part were old school rugby obsessed types and weren't interested in doing anything else. We had a nice little four team league running at one point. In the cities...

    Ospreys sign on the swansea.com stadium

    I'm not much of a Rugby fan, but from what I can see management isn't the games biggest problem. Even before the Swans, and then Cardiff, climbed into the Premier League, there was more interest in football than rugby at the club level. Sure, The Millstad is still packed out for the Six...

    Ospreys sign on the swansea.com stadium

    There's not really anyone left to alienate. That seems to be the problem. If The Ospreys were still pulling in the crowds that they were when they were first formed then obviously they'd be one of those chosen, but they're not. Their attendances are worse than the Dragons if Google is correct...

    Summer Transfer Window

    I've always loved a utility player. Beaker is up there on my all time list too for the same reasons. The amount of options they give a manager is a huge benefit.

    Summer Transfer Window

    "Happy" might be a strong word, but I wouldn't lose much sleep if we started the season with what we currently have and waited to see what happened as things get a bit tighter for clubs and players. Most of those who have left have already been replaced. Even if Yates goes I wouldn't see him as...

    Ospreys sign on the swansea.com stadium

    Attendances at PyS are significantly higher than Ospreys crowds despite the Ospreys being relatively more successful. Llanelli is a Rugby town. Swansea is a Football city. It'll be Cardiff and Llanelli most probably. One East, one West.
