    Birmingham looked like thugs. Horrible team. LOL at the result.

    Bar / Cafe Swansea

    I was in Bilbao years ago and the taxi went past that bar. Never had the chance to go back and check it was real! Thanks for this.

    I was just thinking yesterday what a good cricketer Gorvin is turning out to be Today 7-1-71-0

    Welsh Regions

    Self harm has always been a characteristic of Welsh rugby governance. The only way to make the economics work would be to seize on the discord between English pro rugby camps (will relegation/ promotion ever be reinstated? Is the bar to entering the top league too high?) and propose to merge...

    Jerry Yates ...

    I think in other sports (cycling) you have, or had, to make yourself available for an hour every day, all year round.The sportsperson uploads whereabouts to a shared calendar. It must be right to do so, otherwise everyone would load up on the appropriate gear over the summer and come back about...

    Glamorgan - 2025 Season ...

    I had a look at his stats on Cricinfo and amazingly he has got a 100 in a one-day international: Jersey against Papua New Guinea.

    Glamorgan - 2025 Season ...

    Good to see Tribe as well as Kellaway stepping up this year. Tribe will be gutted not to have got his ton yesterday.

    I stopped reading at that point. What a Mickey Mouse error.

    Season 24/25 | The Official Match Night Thread | Swansea City 3 Plymouth Argyle 0 | Att: 14,978 | The EFL Championship

    Fully 50% of their turnover is sponsorships and advertising. It can’t last.

    2023/24 Financial Statements

    Yes (if I were a shareholder/ business owner) I would spend as much as I could afford on the academy. We have a big catchment area, and hence first shot at a decent talent pool. It’s also the best shot at that money making transfer which helps the club fund itself.

    2023/24 Financial Statements

    This all feels about right to me. Reflecting on the last 3 yrs accounts while sweeping leaves … - we turn over about £20 m - we spend about £40 m. I do actually think this will be player wages and other legit expenses. It doesn’t look like a situation where the shareholders are scalping the...

    New Manager

    Silly thing for him to say, though, because he can’t control the arrival of a new manager (what if they all say no?). Perhaps he meant he was given a short term (one month) contract as caretaker, which expires around now?

    Vintage Photos

    Found this picture on some hoardings around the Mumbles tennis courts by the prom the other day, as part of a local history thing. That’s my Dad at the back right. Storyofmumbles.org is a wonderful website.

    Season 24/25 | The Official Match Thread | Swansea City 0 Sheffield Wednesday 1 | Att: 14,149 | The EFL Championship

    Well, if I can share my 2 cents’ worth (given that this is likely to be my one game of the season) … Three at the back usually means one less in midfield. Fine if the three really add something with their passing, but our three don’t. They just delay the ball going forward. We lack a centre...

    Season 24/25 | The Official Match Thread | Norwich 5 Swansea 1 | The EFL Championship

    A fine city though. Anyone who is prepared to travel should make a weekend of it. Great place: good architecture (esp. UEA) and delicious beer plus river and the cathedral close. I went to a few Norwich games back in the day and the vibe was very Swansea: oh &ck, not again. Relegation in about...
