Swansea City wishes to remind supporters that it has a zero-tolerance approach to anti-social behaviour on our official coaches for away matches.
The club has seen a rise in incidents since the start of the season, with supporters coming forward to raise complaints relating to behaviour, discriminatory chanting and abuse of those supplying the service.
This behaviour affects the enjoyment for many other supporters using the service and, whilst the club has issued several warnings and bans, we will continue to work with the Supporters’ Trust on these matters.
The club is working with Turners — our official coach travel service — to now provide stadium personnel and stewards on our coaches for the next three away games, starting with Saturday’s trip to Bristol City.
Every adult travelling on these coaches must have a form of ID on them and be able to show a valid match ticket if requested.
If behaviour on these services fails to improve and incidents continue to occur then Turners have already informed the club that they would have no hesitation in ceasing the service, which would have a detrimental impact for a lot of our supporters and, in turn, affect the numbers of supporters who travel away.
The support given to Russell Martin, his staff and the players this season has been nothing short of incredible, and the club recognises and thanks the vast majority of supporters to continue to impeccably represent our football club and community home and away.
The club wants to ensure that everyone who travels via the coach service has an enjoyable experience and gives the team the backing they deserve.
But anti-social behaviour will not be tolerated.

22 years for me and always found my nationality to be a positive.
Mind you, when I get to retirement it’s my intention to go home. The pull remains strong. |
19 years in the NW of England. No desire at all to return home. |  | | |

You live in a glorious spot. I’m not stalking btw
I’ve been to Deeside today and watching the open land unfold up the peninsular is still resonant |  |

I miss sandy beaches and access to first class sport! And yes, I include the swans in that 😉 | | | |

Beaches, yes, but on the edge of the Peak Districts, hour from the lakes. Not far from N Wales and people are like home.
Left Wales after Uni, 21 years ago, been in England 1/2 my life. Other than mam and dad, nothing there for me

Oh absolutely, it’s beautiful down there and doing my favourite run (parkrun) in the Gnoll grounds where I grew up is a joy, as is going to watch the swans at home (furthest away ground for me) is absolutely brilliant. Stunning part of the world but don’t regret leaving | | | |

I was brought up in Manselton. Not beautiful aesthetically as we could hear the Cwmfelin works siren at dinner time
The racecourse, A favourite play area and football at Cwmbwrla. Neath to me as a kid was where we went for Speedway and Stock Cars . | |

Beaches.
I’m always reading about glorious Gower beaches
I’ve done plenty of time on them getting soaked to the skin.
Without sunshine they are pretty much. Irrelevant
We are literally surrounded on three sides by water and beaches . We don’t have the weather to appreciate them.
Swimming in our waters isn’t particularly pleasant either . It’s why we go abroad | |

Not at all, weather didn’t matter. if it’ nice you play on the beach, if it’s raining, you get in the sea. Especially with our dog, we don’t go abroad. Walking on the beach or up in the hills in the rain, is wonderful. Great for your mental health. | | | |

Have you watched the Ice cream van wars Sirjohnalot ?, I did put a thread up, have you ever found out if any of your cases (long after the event) went in a certain direction because of police corruption ? |  |

Even though I was pretty much on the doorstep (North Gower not South) I’ve never been on a surfboard.
When I was a kid you were either in the surf/skateboard group or in the football/rugby lot.
I was firmly in the latter! | | | |

Sea swimming is strictly in the summer for me!
Wrapping up and walking on the beach in the wind and the winter is a joy. | | | |

In order for it to be an offence, the context is important. In this particular circumstance, English football fans in a match situation, chanting ‘sheep sha..’ and Swansea singing our reply is unlikely to fit the criteria, especially the aggravated offence which includes intent.
If you went down that route then ‘typical English always cheating,… always .. on the English side of the bridge ‘ eg would fall into the same criteria.
It’s a world away from what black and Asian people still suffer today.
One on one, or a group walking to the match and shouting it to a group walking the other way could be viewed differently.
It’s the same example that the police are deemed to have a higher tolerance and also people effing and Jeffing in a football game is not a public order but going into a church and using the f word, would be a public order.
All about context. |
I think that is totally wrong and agree with Resolvan then.
The whole thing is open to anti Welsh racism, society should have an across the board standard otherwise it's open to bias.
I've seen Resolvan talking on this topic before (and agree with him, i think if it was Jews and not the Welsh there would be hell to play) but I've never got involved because I personally don't get offended if I was so called abused by people from the other side of the Dyke I would give it back (not saying that is right but I would).
But back to the point, football needs to get it's house in order anyone swearing needs to be chucked out and or banned and or arrested, swearing worse than chants as far as I'm concerned.
As regards chants if anti Welsh chants are allowed then so should anti English chants, what is good for the goose and all that. | |

We have a full on nine month old black Lab who is a keen swimmer | |

With respect, as far as the law is concerned, it’s not wrong. Whether it should be, of course, is a different matter and everyone is entitled to their opinion.

The law might well be deliberately designed to allow anti Welsh discrimination, remember I told you about crossbows in Chester.
Welshman says something in public about English gets locked up, Englishman says something about Welsh in public doesn't , law is open to interpretation and therefore open to bias.
When Wales is independent Wales will once again have the best and fairest laws in the World, English laws are rubbish. | |

In our last home game I was absolutely disgusted to hear Swans fans calling the Cardiff City fans wa*kers, I thought it very unfair on the few that aren't. |  |

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.
