No apologies required sir , a warm spanish evening air or a cold damp Swansea night , who could blame you |
Don't give him excuses - easy flight to Cardiff, quick trip to see the game, still home much quicker than Felixstowe ?
Plastic he is muðŸ˜ðŸ˜ | |

I have done it for 30 odd years & also around 70 away grounds, will probably regret not doing it but the reality is I’m bored shiteless watching us at the moment.
40 mins each way for loads of midweek fixtures when I know I can easily get a ticket when I want seems a better option. |
I admire your commitment and there's no way mine reflects yours ,certainly for the away games and for me as STID I'm a 2 minute drive to park the car then a ten minute walk down so I fully understand why you feel as you do , like a few comments on here yes we won but the feeling of euphoria which should be a normal reaction wasn't there tonight . |  |

I have a longer commute compared to you - 10 minute drive then 10 minutes walk !
15 minutes walk back to Bonymaen (slower going uphill) to the car  | |

I still will renew , it's what you do + we may turn a corner and play with panache and style charging up the league and I want to be there to see it |
Yes that's my view we have been really poor in years gone by had a season then.
Longed for us to get back up to the second tier took 24 years so don't get it to be honest.
Edit
Thinking about we were spoilt with the PL but personally I think the Championship is a great league to be in with a massive prize at stake.
But let's not forget where we came from. [Post edited 16 Feb 2023 12:45]

Exactly.
Some seem to want us to struggle.
Midway in the Championship was something we spent all my younger years dreaming of
( Or should say 2nd division as that was first time around - pre Tosh) [Post edited 16 Feb 2023 12:19]

We have spent 9 years total in our history.
That means for 5/6ths of my life (even more for you) we have been in the second tier or TBH much of it lower.
We do not have a pedigree that says like Arsenal, Everton, Spurs, Man U, we should be at the top table.
Our two dalliances' in the top tier were fantastic while they lasted and God willing I will live to see another one.
However most of us have seen us face the club face the nadir of losing our league status twice, plus the various financial struggles.
Imagine telling those who were fighting against Petty that we would be in the Premier League a decade later ?
We have to enjoy the ride, whatever it offers.
We never know what the future brings | |

Wasting your time some are never happy.
Ups and downs has always been the way I have enjoyed it all though. | |

Same here.
Like most of us we moan and groan now and then, but still enjoy it.
It is our club and always will be.
Went to the funeral of a guy on Monday who many know.
His dedication and loyalty to the Swans knew no bounds.
Always had a smile on his face, and he probably saw more awful games and performances than I have had hot dinners | |

Not sure if that's a dig at me for not renewing but I can assure you I know where we came from & yes I would have bitten your hand off to be a mid season championship side.
Trips to shiteholes up & down the country was part of my DNA following the Swans.
Anyway my reason for not renewing is too many weekday games which are difficult whilst working & more importantly being bored shiteless whilst I am there.
Ill pick & choose my games from next season likely to be more frequent if Martin is no longer our boss.
Id take the 4th tier of football being entertained over Martin's championship project any day. |  | | |

No wasn't a dig at anyone in particular.
Was just pointing out how I feel about it there is a lot of negativity surrounding the club.
Was just trying to put it into a bit of perspective.
I watch Darlington when I not watching the Swans and their fans are quite upbeat and are playing in the 6th tier was the 9th about 6 years ago.
So could be a lot worse. | |

That's nice to hear regards Darlington, been through the mill recently so I suppose how they are going now is a good sign so great that they are positive.
We are a bit of a roll reversal in the fact we have had success but have now had a come down and there does seem to be a bit of a false sense to where we should be.
I have had my moments but I certainly try to be a pint half full guy.......try not to be too negative as it reflects in life in general and I am learning that life is too short to be like that. |  |

I got a roasting when I said I was happy we were in th Championship and preferred it to the EPL. I'm not ne who thinks we deserve EPl status and I'm quite happy where we are apart from the games arelargely dreadful to watch, Martin promised us entertainment, this is mostly the opposite of that.
Now an admission, I have said several times that I wasnt going to renew and my son was on my case nagging, a lot, but I stil hadn't renewed. that changed 2 days ago, he was still on at me and so, following an agreement about certain things (inclusing school work) I have renewed though we have moved seats and gone back to the East stand.
I guess Martin won't be here forever and the away days are still fun. I had a good day out at QPR and we are now planning on Wigan and Luton. Never been to either. | | | |

Just in my row in the East and the four in front there were only about 10 people out of forty.
This was reflected all around the ground.
If it is the same next Tuesday (big possibility) I will take some pictures during the game and post them on here | |
