Thread | FA Cup 3rd Round 20Years Ago
by nicky at 23:31 10 Jan 2026
Was anybody on here at Bramall Lane 20 years ago to watch a makeshift and injury riddled Swans team beat then Prem League and moaning Warnock managed Sheff Utd 3-0?
2 goals by Tommy Butler and a Leon penalty right in front of over 5500 delirious and very loud Jacks. What a day out that was!! |

Thread | Best Chippy
by jack_lord at 11:58 10 Jan 2026
Went to buy Fish and Chips in Dick Bartons last night and large cod was £11.50. 3 with chips would have been 45 quid. It got me wondering what the best Chippy in the Swansea area was, are they better value and how do I keep them warm when I'm travelling back? |

Thread | 2026 Unemployment
by JACKMANANDBOY at 09:53 9 Jan 2026
My son spoke to a recruitment consultant yesterday who works for one of the big UK consultancies. She said that the number of vacancies she is being asked to source for has plummeted to the levels seen in COVID.
A couple of conversations I've had with someone looking for a job and a guy that employs around 80 people back this up, finding a graduate job in the North East of England is very difficult. People are sticking with their jobs in South Wales, the employer has seem staff turnover almost stop in the last three months, he is using overtime a lot more to cover additional demand rather than take people on. The staff profile in his business means his NI bill has doubled in the last year.
With higher employment taxes, increases in business rates, the tightening of employee rights and the possible use of of AI, employers are going to think very carefully about hiring.
Unemployment is going to increase this year. |

Thread | Banning Twitter

If you think Starmer and Co give two shits about Grok images, then I've got some magic beans to sell you. They can't control what people say on it, so they want it banned. This is censorship. Plain and simple.

Over 1300 tickets on sale id be happy with 500. It's a long way with train prices through the roof. 2 off us are going to London first from Swansea then train from kings Cross to Hull change at Doncaster. Let's see what the former UK City of culture is like. |
