Reply | Swansea City : Friday night round up, Barry Bannan & Hull City away
at 23:32 23 Jan 2026
If Bannan was ever going to join us it would have been when Carvahal was our coach, (not long after being let go by Sheffield Wed). He wasn’t deemed good enough then & he most certainly is not good enough now. Decent player in his time but that ship sailed a long time ago |

The players don’t know whether they are staying or going. The region looks like being disbanded as soon as the WRU or Y11 can get rid. Games are played on Friday nights, Saturday nights & Sunday afternoons. Sometimes there is a month between games. First choice players only available when it suits the WRU. Based in Swansea, Neath, Bridgend. The whole organisation & league is a shambles. Weather tonight was appalling. Game was live on tv. I’m not surprised the crowd was poor. Swans only had 13000 on Tuesday, not many more than season ticket holders who get counted whether they turn up or not |

The way that Y11 has treated the Ospreys is despicable. Even now that the have been confirmed that they will take over Cardiff they have still not come out and said what their plan is for the Ospreys. Just how can anyone trust these people ? |

You don’t need an RV mun. Put a bike or 2 in the back of your car. Book a hotel in Swansea. On the day of the Welsh leg, park in Glynneath & cycle up to the Rhigos |

Can’t blame West Ham. His playing time with us has been poorly managed. Shame, he looked a useful asset but his development has been set back by lack of playing time. Looks like we will have to get cover to bolster a pretty poor defence looking all the weaker without him |

Terrific goal scoring powerhouse. Can remember him & Alan Gilzean playing together for Spurs. Always remember them featuring regularly on the Big Match on Sunday afternoons back in the day |

Reply | Former Swansea City boss reveals alarming '£100m black hole' he found at club
at 14:07 6 Jan 2026
Any relegated club or manager of a relegated club could argue that there is £100m black hole the season immediately after relegation. At the time that was around the value of the income to EPL teams from TV, league position prize money, etc. Relegated sides would receive around £100m over 3 seasons
Our owners were only interested in re-couping as much money as they could from their purchase. They sanctioned the sale of any players that would bring in a half decent transfer fee & reduce the wage bill.
That said, Potter made a decent job of it given the circumstances. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if he felt duped about the state of resources available when he arrived. Still he has done pretty well out of it |

Disappointing given recent form and the pricing of the tickets £10 for adults & £1 for u14. Also noticed that we had the lowest crowd in the division for yesterday’s match v WBA (Blackburn attendance not published). The club deserves better support but the marketing & advertisement continues to be p poor. TV coverage definitely impacting our attendances |

Must be incredible to be a player listening to that after a win. Best anthem I’ve heard for many a year. Still want Hearts to win the SPL though [Post edited 29 Dec 2025 15:08]

at 16:03 20 Dec 2025
This happened right front of where we were sitting and not one of our group saw this. In fact most of us were discussing how Ronald’s antics count against us.
McLean is a disgrace. I have spoken to fans of clubs that he has played for and it is pretty unanimous that none of them really wanted him representing their club [Post edited 20 Dec 2025 16:11]

Think you are spot on about Parkinson (let’s hope Wrexham keep him in charge)
On another night Galbraith could easily have had a second yellow but it would have been totally inconsistent in the way the game was refereed (the ref let many worse challenges go)
Feel you have been a bit harsh on Widell. Ollie Cooper is the epitome of a headless chicken. Widdell hasn’t lived up to expectations yet but hasn’t really had a run of starts either. He needs to start more games before we can see his potential imo |

I have watched the Scrum V that you mentioned. Sean Holley did open up a little bit, Jonathan Davies was a bit more reserved. I sensed that both were biting their lip a bit being very careful what they said. ‘Don’t bite the hand that feeds’ is an expression that comes to mind. Many ex players are still making a living out of their rugby connections and they don’t want to mess that up by being outspoken |

Of course Jamie Roberts will not speak against it, firstly he is from Cardiff, and isn’t he on the WRU board as some kind of non executive director ? I’d have thought someone like AWJ would have had something to say but he is apparently up the for the £160kpa Technical Director position. The silence from recent ex pro players & coaches from the Ospreys region is deafening.
As already stated the people in charge do not understand the game or history of rugby in Wales. This new lot at the WRU are addressing the whole issue from the top down trying to justify all their decisions on business actions. Whereas they should be serving the sport of rugby in Wales from the bottom up. Nothing like a solid foundation to work from, but they just don’t want to see it. They haven’t learnt from the loss of opportunity of regional rugby. They have already alienated & lost Pontypridd & the Rhondda, they have lost most of the Gwent valleys & now they will lose a huge mass of the country from Bridgend to Swansea. Clueless doesn’t begin to cover it [Post edited 16 Dec 2025 19:21]

The problem there is that if he is replaced by a wet lettuce Biden or Kamala Harris type then the cycle will be repeated. Pretty sure the whole of Europe will welcome a ‘lame duck President’ |

Good derby atmosphere at the Stadium of Light today. Worked with a lot of Geordies & Mackems over the years. It always seemed their dislike for each other was largely confined to matchdays. Can’t say I ever witnessed the perennial hatred that exists between Swans-Cardiff, Rangers-Celtic, West Ham-Millwall or Utd-Liverpool. Just my experience |

I think many would agree with you & maybe they will apply to join the English league. The problem looming is that the Ospreys owners have apparently bid to takeover Cardiff |

I found these statements interesting :
“Apollo investment raises questions again as to why the Welsh government needed to provide £18m of non-repayable grant …
State aid disclosures, which appear to have been written by an officer of Wrexham county borough council, claimed there was “no incentive for the private sector to pursue the project” of redeveloping the stadium, and that developing to international standard would be “commercially unviable”.
International football going to Wrexham ? |
