Michael Howard is a keen Swans fan, sat on the open bank behind the goal at Gillingham during the Kenny Jackett era

On a final note, looking through Keith Walker’s opening 3 seasons, I believe he arrived at the Vetch Field as a midfielder but in his first 5 games he covered for the injured Terry Boyle at c/back alongside Mark Harris. Following an injury that saw him sidelined for almost 2 months he returned...

Triple signing on 23rd November 1989 by manager Ian Evans. Striker John Hughes(£70,000) previously a part time professional with Berwick Rangers, the signing was one third of a £260,000 package that included midfielder Keith Walker(£80,000) and striker Paul Chalmers(£110,000). A fourth player...

Report of the game from a Colchester perspective. Still awaiting a report from the Swans OS. https://www.cu-fc.com/news/2026/february/03/u-s-through-in-premier-league-cup/ Here's the Swans line-up

Technically, not including Kuqi u we have had at least four players that have played for the Swans, one in a first team pre-season friendly and three in reserve team matches. HEIKKINEN Ari Birthplace: Vuolijoki, Finland; Date of Birth: 08/04/1964 Central Defender Trialist centre half who lined...

Considering Bobby Wales was a regular on our bench in recent weeks does that mean we will be looking to sign a striker on loan now that Wales is off to Huddersfield, or is Vitor relying on Cullen as a back up or playing Widell now and then.

Malc, Niallo pens a concise report of every game be they 18's or 21's that can still be viewed on the SCFC2 board. Very informative, constructive and well worth a read.

Its not the recruitment staff we need to poach its the Matthew Bentham's of this world and Brighton's Tony Bloom who would dictate policy with their own cash, set their stall out instead of hoping that the lure of low finance investors -Modric, Snoop Dog etc, will attract further investment that...

Hi Malc, no criticism of Vitor, quite refreshing to see an attacking brand of football but - a failure to take our chances at home or away have certainly prevented the team from failing to take points especially when the performance warranted it. Will Nunes be the catalyst to scoring or...

Apart from Vipotnik who is actually going to get his name on the scoresheet on a regular basis, and while Nunes might be an unknown at this moment in time, keeping a clean sheet is not a given, as Blackburn proved a few days back.

As for being safe from relegation - for me far too early especially with two clubs just 7 and 8 points behind us. Is this the season where 51/ 52 points will be needed and not forgetting Birmingham were relegated after getting 50 points two seasons back. All that needs to happen is a severe...

They were that poor they managed to score against us. Just imagine if we had a long list of injured players on the bench as they had last night.

In all honesty would any amongst us dared to make a statement like that, and does it go to show what a good coach we have at this moment in time at the club.

Ward has been with us for just over a week and Vitor is building his fitness up from the subs bench. Who's to say Ward will start v Blackburn,

As far as our recruitment policy is concerned, take away the attitude from those players and their agents who feel they are too good to sign for a side like the Swans, the financial side of all transfers, permanent or loan, depends on having the finance to complete such a deal. Are we capable...

Rhian Brewster did a good job for us and commanded a large fee when he moved from Liverpool to Sheffield United but a number of injuries ruled him out for long periods

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cvg9gk2rj43o Reading were taken over last May and didn't they receive a sizeable sum off Wrexham for Sam Smith.

Seen a few Newport games on the tv and went to see them playing at Colchester before Xmas. Ben Lloyd is a classic example of a youngster who has been left playing academy football for too long while County are a mess apart from on loan Braybrook from Leicester and at the moment are cast iron...

Cooper had the benefit of two seasons of Para payments and brought in the likes of Gyokeres, Kasey Palmer, Latibeaudiere, while Whittaker failed to be utilised not only by Cooper but also by Russell Martin. Martin brought some beauts to the club-Rhys Williams, Christie, Burns, Sorinola, Okoflex...

Clucus proved at Stoke that he wasn't a bad player and you can blame the dumb head coach we had at the time in selecting Clucus in almost every position apart from in goal.
