Thread | Flags at Home Games
at 17:16 23 Aug 2018
A couple of supporters have been in touch with me since the Leeds game on Tuesday regarding their flags they usually put in various locations around the East and NE Stands. We usually put one up in front of where we sit in the East Upper with no real issue and have done for the past 3 years or so.
With the new Trade Centre Wales advert boards going up before Tuesday's game stewards were telling anyone who tried that it simply wasn't happening over any areas of wording or logos etc! That did not leave a lot of remaining space and definately nothing in close proximity to us!
I will see if I can get a response from the club to see how they are prepared to get round this but it would be useful beforehand if anyone else who experienced a similar problem to us on Tuesday can let me know on here or email me on dave.dalton@swanstrust.co.uk so that I can add it to the others who have been in touch with me?

Thread | Retro Shirt Day?
at 12:36 9 May 2016
As its the last game of the season on Sunday and with the weather seemingly set fair what are your thoughts on digging out some of our favourite Swans home shirts from the back of the cupboard for this one? We have some real beauty's (good and bad!) from over the years that I'm sure would stir up a good few memories and stories from the past!!
Be great to see the stadium full of home shirts from over the years! Doesn't matter even whether its this years Adidas shirt either as that will be officially "retro" after Sunday! Be also fantastic to see most of the stadium in various shades of white (or off gray!!) from the past 20-30 odd years to bring the season to a fitting close.
One other thing. What are your views on anyone wanting to participate in this on Sunday making a small donation at the match for an appropriate fundraiser? We will need a few bucket collector volunteers and of course a suggested cause. My personal choice would be to help towards the Justice for Terry Coles case costs:
https://www.facebook.com/Justiceforterry/
but again I will leave this for general discussion.
I'm sure we have enough time to spread the word and make this work and if required I am happy to liaise with whoever I need to to help co-ordinate things. Email ceredigionjacks@gmail.com or mobile 07966 598716 if anyone wants to get in touch direct.
Thanks!

Thread | Any Questions for the Coaches & Board?
at 19:28 20 Oct 2015
I'm guessing there are a few out there who have a question or two for our coaches & board at the moment??
To celebrate the official launch of the Ceredigion Jacks we have a Fans Forum coming up on Thursday in Lampeter Rugby Club. We are very grateful to the Swans Trust in helping us ensure a really good cross representation from the club is on the Panel including:
Pep Clotet
James Beattie
Lee Trundle
Huw Cooze
We still have some spaces available but if you cannot make it and would like us to put a question (please keep it repeatable and clean.......ish!) to the Panel just let us know! The best 6 we receive will be asked during the evening and their answers will be posted up before we travel up to the Villa game!

Thread | Next Swans Manager
at 08:00 15 Jun 2015
Completely hypothetical question for you all this fine Monday morning.....
Lets fast forward to the end of the 2017-2018 season and presume (hopefully!) that the Swans are still in Premier League?
An offer to manage at a top club comes in that Garry is probably ready to take up and we reluctantly give him our blessing.
Wales too are still punching above their weight after having had a decent World Cup qualifying campaign (maybe even getting to the 2018 finals?) with Chris Coleman still in charge.
Would you then consider offering the vacant Swans job to Coleman a step forward or step back?
.....and discuss!!

Thread | Ceredigion Jacks!
at 23:25 10 May 2015
Thanks to all those that made our get together in Felinfach earlier and to those that have already pledged their support to our new Swans Supporters Group.
We have decided to formally set the new group up as "Ceredigion Jacks" and over the next 3 months will be busy recruiting as many Swans fans (young & old) from the area as we possibly can. With the help of the Club we will then aim to set up a Fans Forum as our next event probably in the Lampeter area in August/September.
If anyone is interested in joining up or just finding out more then just give me a call on 07966 598716 or email me at ceredigionjacks@gmail.com and I'll send you some more info.
Everyone is welcome........as long as they are a Jack!!

Thread | Attacking End
at 07:52 3 May 2015
First time for a while I've seen us attack the North (away) end in the second half. Did we win or lose the toss to choose which way to play this time as 9 times out of 10 its usually the other way round?
Personally I would prefer this to be the case for every home game as its (arguably) the more vocal end when we really need to get behind the team (and its closer to where we sit!!)
Any ideas why the change yesterday?

Thread | New Swans Supporters Group
at 07:06 29 Apr 2015
For anyone interested we are hoping to set up a new Swans Supporters Group in the Lampeter/Aberaeron/Tregaron area in the next few weeks and we have arranged an informal get together for anyone who would like to get involved for Sunday 10th May at 7pm in the Vale of Aeron, Felinfach, Lampeter, SA48 8AE.
If we get a good response and turn out then it should allow us to consider setting something more formal up which will help us all co-ordinate anything locally that is Swans related such as ticketing and travelling to home and away games plus anything else that the group would like to do. We would also like to actively encourage the merits of Swans Trust membership within the group and also focus on getting families and local youngsters involved as future Jacks. Further ahead maybe we can try and get the club to assist with some sort of junior ticketing schemes for selected future games when the increase to stadium capacity commences? Phil & Jim White have been very helpful by pointing us in the right direction and although Jim will be in London that weekend for the Arsenal v Swansea game on the Monday night he has kindly agreed to give us some help in getting us going if we have enough interest in setting something up.
We now need to push ahead with promoting the idea a bit more. As this is the first meeting we cannot really gauge how many might be interested so it would be appreciated if you can email me on frithwen@aol.com or text me on 07966 598716 if you think you can come along? If you can't make it to this initial get together but would still like me to put you on any future mailing list if we do manage to set up a new group then let me know. Any suggestions that members of current Swans Supporters Groups have for us on what to look out for would also be very welcome.
Finally, If you know of any other Swans supporters in our area who might like to get involved please ask them to get in touch.
Many thanks
