| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

As Keith said, the MAGS (& the GITs before then) had a huge non-Welsh element.
As for myself, I grew up in Lowestoft (the most easterly place in England) and fell in love with Tosh's Super Swans in '81. Never even considered either changing my team in all that time, or considered myself a 'lesser supporter'. After all, I was there that awful night in Boston in the autumn of 2002. Many others weren't, if that suddenly has to start counting for some bizarre reason.
Been following them for over 40 years and consider myself a 100% JB, whether others like that or not is up to them.
If it helps, I now live further west on the outskirts of Norwich. By my reckoning, at that rate I should acquire an SA postcode well before my 900th birthday. On the other hand, maybe just maybe, it matters not where you are from, but where you are going and what you are believing in.
Yours, an English Swansea City supporter.
And breathe... [Post edited 28 Sep 17:34]

No you not that is a small club mentality.
I have gone through hell over the years supporting Swansea being from a former Cardiff supporting heartland.
I have loved the Swans for well over 22 years of my life all the highs and lows.
Also I travel to watch them.
Seriously think of this dude running the club we would be back in the league of Wales.
The first thing that took my breath away with the Swans was I was with other real fans.
Not knuckle dragging idiots that just went to stair at away fans.
Then pretend they had won fights.

I don't give a rats arse where in the world you come from. As long as the love of the club endures and you stick by it .
My pet hate is the glory hunters around the place if they want to follow a northern club why not bury or rochdale ask them that one or southern clubs like Barnet or Leyton orient, they can't answer you it's glory hunters at their finest |  | | |
