Swansea City : Can a football club ever please everyone all the time ?

The announcement by Swansea City yesterday that it’s FREE tickets for the second leg play off tie against Barnsley was an immense gesture. There has to be a degree of legislating to ensure those who enter the ballot are selected fairly. That was covered in yesterday’s main news story. However now it seems that wasn’t good enough !

You only have to see the social media sites and especially Twitter to see there are some seriously unhappy people about today who wanted to attend the game. We were absolutely gobsmacked to read that there are those who follow the club are so incensed they have taken to Twitter to make their feelings known.

Here’s a selection -

Of course, in the main the gesture by the club towards its fans, once again shows the administration behind the club in South Wales Is doing what they feel is right as situations change. The vast majority have responded positively as you would expect.

It seems ludicrously bonkers to complain about something that has been well thought out and is fair. Maybe a return to buying the fans pints of beer is more preferable to a well thought out policy for the biggest game of the season so far ?

What do you think, right or wrong ?
Did the swans get this one right for you or wrong again !

Swansea City : The facts on players in and out and the strategy behind it
This week has seen some bad financial news for the Swans, and of course more questions than answers yet again. That aside there is some great news from the age grade side at U21 as once again we see a player knocking on the door of the first team squad.
Swansea City : Has Andrew Coleman been in the shower for three months with Bobby Ewing ?
The changing timeline of when Andrew Coleman became Chairmen of Swansea City caused a stir yesterday, our twitter account getting well over eleven thousand views and increasing, which sent website views here in to their many thousands as well.
Swans supporters consult Kieran Maguire and when did Andy start as Chairman ?
News of Swansea City’s financial position hit home yesterday as the club announced further losses. The profit and sustainability rules are forever hanging over a club, and in Swansea City’s case like everyone else it’s a rolling three year issue.
Gwyn’s Eye View : Swansea City v Millwall
Glyn 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.
Jamal Lowe : Still to be contacted regards his future at Swansea, Langstaff update
We have been told by numerous Swansea fans of a chance meeting in a service station between Jamal Lowe and those returning from Norwich yesterday. Nothing in that or indeed the conversation they had yesterday. Indeed there has to be some interpretation from what we know already on Jamal Lowe.
Brave Swans in memorable game at Carrow Road
It was a pulsating game to watch and very much one of my favourite away games of the season. The Swans looked an entirely different side to that we saw at Middlesbrough when it is clear a catalyst for commitment was agreed behind the scenes at Swansea City. To a man every player grafted and wore the shirt with pride. To see the players really acknowledge the Swans support at Carrow Road this afternoon was emotional.
