    Horrendous news as ECB says. Not someone I knew personally, but a sad day. RIP

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    Go to Norwich. There’s no comparison really. It’s booming whilst Swansea has not had that sort of investment. That said there’s far less distractions nearby.

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    Norwich is a much wealthier city than Swansea. Large Science Park as well as providing services for much of East Anglia.

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    As both you and Phil say the pricing for kids is an absolute no brainer. My daughter came for kids for a quid, face-painted and met Cyril and Cybil back in the Martinez and Sousa days. She came to the last two games with me. Twenty three and straight to Swansea from her overnight shift at BCH...

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    That's a bit of a myth. Swansea Urban Area (including Neath and Port Talbot) is 300,000. Even adding in Carmarthenshire and parts of Powys it's really around 500,000. Yes, I know there are fans in the Glamorgan Valleys and Bridgend but it's not that big a population. Oxfordshire's population is...

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    Well written but let's be frank-The average attendance in our Championship years prior to promotion were all in the 15,000s even in the promotion year. That's what our realistic championship baseline is. A better season and some excitement after five years of dour football may add a couple of...

    Any Bass players

    Have a look at a Yamaha-arguably best bang for your buck for guitars and basses. If you want something very different have a look at a Gretsch which have a shorter scale but look very classy. The other left field option is a Hagstrom

    Early days but Stamenic and Galbraith look our best midfield since the days of Leon and DeGuzman

    Better players than the swill they bought. They may well go up and arguably should, but let's see how young heads and legs fare in cold, wet November.

    I should add I have no stake in this game. Dislike them both as clubs

    If Brendan's Celtic rip him a new one on the 31st which is entirely possible, then he may not see August out. For all Brendan's bluster he is a good manager. Russell Martin not so.

    Maybe he had a strong local accent and it was misinterpreted. Doubt that though. Anfield was notoriously racist back in the 70s and 80s despite an integrated black population-this book https://www.wsc.co.uk/the-archive/barnes-storm/ exposed that around John Barnes joining the club. Although most...

    Maybe, but that assumes this goes to Crown Court. Either way the bloke was a Grade 'A' prick and won't be seeing the inside of Anfield again any time soon.

    It would be a different charge. Jones got off as the prosecution had to convince the jury that there was intent to incite violence. This would be a lesser charge of using racist or discriminatory language. There may well be footage, but that's not going to be released as it could prejudice any...

    Semenyo's word and corroborated by others nearby. I've seen reports the guy has a record of abusing players. Semenyo clearly had enough balls to take it further.

    I'm concerned that opposition front benchers are undermining the rule of law and the right to jury trial. There was enough fuss last year when moves were made to reduce the backlog in courts through reducing the number of trials going to Crown Court. Unfortunately memories are short and...

    Neither. Another jury may have convicted Jones. Lucy may have been acquitted if she stood trial And you would be very naive not think that the handlers of the right-wing paid shills like Grimes did not have tweets and Facebook posts prepared to dole out if the verdict has been an acquittal...

    No, not at all. The point to you was it was not an online act. I apologise if it came over that way.
