Swans Put Five Past Neath
Swans win comfortably in their pre-season game at Neath
How many times do you see a pre-season game delayed because of crowd congestion but that is the interest that surrounds the Swans at the moment and they didn't fail to justify the faith in the side with a five goal demolition of Neath at the Gnoll.
Fielding two different outfield XIs - one in each half - and also adding late appearances from Stefan Morrison and Joe Allen and you realise just how many options we have this coming season.
Guillem Bauza scored two early goals and second half strikes from Ferrie Bodde (penalty), the Dutch trialist and Morrison ended the rout.

Dorus, Collins, Monk, Serran, Bessone, McDonald, Pratley, Gomez, KOL, Butler, Bauza
Second half
Dorus, Tate, Williams, OTJ, Painter, Britton, Bodde, Dutchie, Gower, Orlandi, Pintado

Swansea City : Grimes misses a penalty in a return to bad old ways An error strewn and tepid Swansea display ensured thousands left the stadium before the staff and players did their usual walk around at this end of season game. It wasn’t a good look as two players received red cards and any effort by the home side was lost in a static and frustrating display.
Gwyn’s Eye View : Swansea City v MillwallGlyn is back with his favourite stats as we build up to the last game of the season. That comes in the form of Millwall who it seems are close to selling their requested 1,148 allocation, so its down to the Jack Army to do their bit this bank holiday weekend.
The fate today’s Swansea footballers would never have to endure Swansea City bring this season to a close on Saturday with a home game against Millwall. However, what about those bygone days when footballers had no choice but to go down the pit after their career ended, or open a toy shop, pub or retrain ? That thought would petrify todays modern footballer.
