For some I could be classed as a moderate happy clapper, a mid-septuagenarian who has witnessed the ups and down of the football club since 1961 but for the life of me I am struggling to come to terms following criticism of our new head coach. For a club that is in the bottom percentile of cash...

Experience in a squad is a necessity if you want to bring through young professionals but that experience comes at a price. Jay will rarely be one of the first names on the team sheet but will be called upon when the fixtures are congested. As has been mentioned there is no doubt he has been...

You have missed out Widell - getting better and better in every game, doesn't shy away from a tackle and not far off from being a regular starter.

There's going to come a time when Inoussa will realise that he only needs to beat his man once and deliver a cross rather than stop / turn back and try to beat him again, and when he does we will have a very useful / dangerous wide midfielder in our squad.

I find it hard to believe that we are aiming for Cat 1 when over a period of time there has been no teamsheets, a broken PA system and last weekend v Wolves the kick off was suspended because there was no mandatory ambulance present.

Thought Inoussa had one of his better games today and if Idah had been more aware of getting in front of his opponent Inoussa's cross would have been converted for the equalising goal. Galbraith was outstanding yesterday giving Sorba very little room and if he had stayed in the f/back position...

Can anybody tell me why the Ospreys can't apply to join the English rugby pyramid. If the Ospreys become the region to miss out why should the WRU try to block a move to England.

To be fair to Tony Mowbray he has had an excellent reputation in the game and after his illness when in charge of WBA would he be that interested in coming to a club like the Swans and put his health in danger once again. Stay well away Tony.

If we continue playing as we have been doing we will be relegated. We have gone from a team that started the season well and we have been sliding down the table since September. Ronald's inability to beat his man and send the defence splitting passes into the danger zone has gone missing and...

As a defensive central midfielder Fulton did his job last night in the first half and it enabled Galbraith to play further up the pitch. The capitulation in the second half wasn't down to one man it was more of a collection of players who were unable to keep control of the ball in the opponents...

He's struggling to deliver from the right wing, he fails to get to the by-line, his crosses invariably hit the first opponent, think its time to try him at right full back, what have we got lose?

At least the Harlan Perry situation is being aired in forums and social media and no excuse can be given by the club that they weren't aware of the player's situation. Having said that its getting nearer to when the transfer window opens and all manner of rumours will be posted!

Take away the schoolboy errors in yesterday's match at Ashton Gate I thought we were well in the game, as we were at Preston, and when I look at the 4th position Bristol hold in the table, I think to myself. Really! All we need now is a head coach who can organise a defence and select eleven...

the last thing a club should do is listen to what agents say, a recipe for disaster and was Jenkins's downfall. We are lacking an out and out football man on the current staff who has no agenda apart from making decisions for Swansea City.

Would we have said the same if Chris Davies(Birmingham manager) had accepted the Swans offer 18 months back.

Checked out the Arsenal U21 line-ups on, https://uk.soccerway.com/team/arsenal/ngXZTiDH/ Remy hasn't started any U21 fixtures and has only made an appearance in the Cardiff defeat after the Arsenal keeper Rojas had been sent off while in August / September U21 fixtures Remy has regularly been...

Co-incidentally I came across this podcast / interview on Training Ground Guru and Vitor Matos https://trainingground.guru/podcast/vitor-matos-elite-developer/ The following is just half of the text from the podcast. Starting in coaching Vitor Matos: I was a player at a really low level. Around...

In March 2024 we had a Portuguese analyst working for the Swans - Oscar Botelho - who we were led to believe was involved with us signing Gonzalez Franco. Before Gorridge's time at the club but I believe Adam Worth was on the club's books at the time and one wonders if contact was made with...

the common denominator with all those head coaches is that they all had a sizeable chest of cash to secure top quality loans or experienced footballers. Apart from the occasional PL recruit the Swans market lies in European second division leagues

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6786867/2025/11/12/vitor-matos-liverpool-jurgen-klopp-manager/ He must have had the criteria for a work permit as a coach at Liverpool. Doing ok at Portuguese second tier club Maritimo. Is he any less qualified than Brum's Chris Davies who we tried to attract a...
