I was driving through Swansea last Sunday and noticed a number of fellas wearing Liverpool replica tops.
Don't understand this myself supporting a team probably against the city/region you was born?
Is this pattern replicated among the youth in Swansea or have we captured a generation of support over the likes of Man U, Liverpool etc? |  | | |  |

Actually I agree with you.
As regards hub caps ,bin dippers ....read cool runnings float in Aberaeron.
They were best team in seventies and early 80s but nowhere now .
Not hate? Just look at what is posted from the usual suspects on here. Good natured ? ...as good natured as the Black and White minstrels era | |

"From my experience." Not yours. |
Well my experience is over 30 years and the kids have grown up here, often coming home at 4am or later after a night out. They think you're talking bollox as well. |  |

Just out of interest, why don't you follow your home side I.e. Soton?
Very glad you support the Swans btw but a genuine question all the same. |  |

does Neath or Port Talbot still have that Manure Season ticket club who take a bus up to their homegames?
I seem to remember one kicking around back in the 90s. | |

Don't care. I started supporting the Swans when we were in the old Div 4. I think you should only legally be allowed to call yourself a supporter of a club if (a) that was the nearest club to where you were born and/raised, (b) your parents supported the club or (c) you have a doctor's note.
If you go into Sports Direct in Swansea and ask to buy a Liverpool shirt, you should have to provide written evidence to explain why. |
Nice post Simon. I've seen plenty of ManU & Liverpool shirts around Lympsham area. Well, Weston & Burnham really. |  | | |

And which is why the only local 12 year olds of today who support Liverpool are made to do so by their dad's. |
My dad is a Liverpool fan but I basically told him to fvck right off when he tried to push them down my throat
Lucky his brother started taking me to watch my beloved swans in around 77/78
And I will forever love him for that
I still and will always love my dad though  |  | | |

The cool running thing was ridiculous. Call them stupid or naive, but let's not pretend it was a hate crime. I don't see any Scouse digs on here that are any more offensive than the average sheep joke. I must have missed whatever has wound you up. | | | |

You just missed my point.
Plenty of that on Pross Post | |

People say who cares? Well I fcking care. I care because clubs like ours go out of business because of glory hunting locals. if we were having these crowds in the mid 80s to 90s we would never have been days away from going under and have the embarrassment of not paying players and asking our creditors for favours.
The other feeling I have for these big team glory hunters is that of sympathy. They have no idea what it feels like to experience games like Hull, Reading, Bury, Preston etc etc. Nothing they feel will get close to those special days and also whilst it's difficult the dark days help to appreciate the good.
Nope you can keep your big team, sky TV, replica shirt, stadium tour fan. I'd rather support us in the Welsh league than follow a champions league team that is 200 plus miles away and I have no links to. |
Fair enough, but I don't really have time to worry about stuff like this. | | | |

I don't see why anyone would support anyone else but Swansea. A lot of us started supporting the Swans when we were in the doldrums but times have changed and surely there can be no excuse now.
We are more successful than Liverpool in recent History ;)
