| Swansea Independent flourishing 20:15 - Jul 16 with 2426 views | KeithHaynes | We often receive loads of compliments by Email, DM, social media etc. Even the bizarre takes on our reports on Twitter sees a huge influx of self determining visits and new members. 62 this month some stating the amount of rubbish they see on Twitter was the reason they visited and now follow the website every day. 87% don’t post on the forums, but certainly add to the views, 3,500 ish are active, but as we’ve always stated the forum is more of a work of ‘pain’ 😂 rather than financial gain. Reports regularly hit over 20k. The website will hit over a million views this month at a time when club football is off the menu. Same last month. Cannot thank you enough. As per our exclusive reports on Franco, Margetson, Ryan Maye, new owners, and even going back to Piroe, Steve Cooper are getting harder to generate. Last summer we knocked back most of the reports on players joining, one from a journalist with over a million followers who took real offence. The player never joined. As stated nothing will stop us, and with the new season v Birmingham City coming in around three weeks there will be much more to enjoy on the Indy. |  |

I was angered to read your report of abuse you and your family have received - I had no idea of any of that - and I hope the SWP can help in putting a stop to it. You're running a fan website without monetary gain, a very useful site IMO. Abuse is inexcusable. |  | |  |
| Swansea Independent flourishing on 00:42 - Jul 17 with 2148 views | swansjack84 | Swans Indy my only source for legit news, reports and insights. Been big fan for years and happily vocal about it. I have never understood those on other sites always having negative things to say. Simply put.. Why? Why wouldn't you as a Swansea City fan week embrace an outlet that reports news on your club and in the right way. Instead they look to those other sites the ones that poach news and rinse and repeat. Keep up great work Keith and team. I check everyday for news on the Indy and always excited. It's my way to step back from stresses of life to read what you have written and enjoy. |  | |  |

Many many people have said this mate, especially those who find it an escape from normal life. This is why we keep the forum going. On your point of other sites. Snack Media who run Vital Swans have stepped in and removed insulting posts about me personally that the administrator of that site (who hides behind anonymity) saw fit to support. They’ve also warned him and have apologised. As we’ve always said it’s no more than 20 idiots with Vital Swans deeming it necessary to welcome as Phil’s site has closed, they’ve probably got four on there. All anonymous, all hiding, all using someone else’s platform to preach hate. Will be over on October 10th, will put it on here where I and we are, I still like pubs but hardly if ever drink, but don’t let a Coke Zero get in the way of that 😂👍 |  |

| Swansea Independent flourishing on 08:43 - Jul 17 with 1906 views | FullSentenceSwan | I see so much rubbish elsewhere. If I need to fact check, this is where I come. Glad to see others are clearly of the same mindset. |  | |  |
| Swansea Independent flourishing on 12:16 - Jul 17 with 1740 views | onehunglow | It’s now clearly more than a fan forum I hope it doesn’t eat itself and I’m sure Keith won’t allow that O doubt any other site of any club is as revered |  |

| Swansea Independent flourishing on 22:22 - Jul 17 with 1357 views | swansjack84 | I noticed the increase of hate towards Indy on Vital forum last week Certain poster was going out his way to argue with everyone. I was instantly turned off by it all. I love the Indy. Swans may only play 1 or 2 times a week through out the season for me to escape life, but the Indy is my comfort blanket every day. Keep up the great work. |  | |  |
