Our World Cup coverage
at 09:02 19 Jul 2026

Well done England

Third place in the World. And that game against France was the most entertaining and enjoyable game I’ve watched in a long time. Two teams attacking each other, getting players forward quickly with the emphasis on attack.

Glorified friendly? Not when there’s a third place, a bronze medal pride and FIFA rankings involved.

You can say if was football from the old days. Players expressing themselves with the shackles off. Not being over coached by coaches trying to out do each other, instead leaving players get on with it albeit with a game plan which in this case was to attack and quickly in numbers.

Excellent stuff fair play 👏🏻

I have a different view.

They are a joy to watch. Superb movement pace and interchanging of positions. All players comfortable in possession including the goalkeeper / sweeper I noticed at the stadium in October that their passing accuracy and pace is difficult to stop. No one has said it’s the only or best way to play. Arsenal have taken an alternative approach which involves more emphasis on set piece success including long throw ins which are back in “ fashion “.

Teams like Bournemouth are also playing a similar entertaining brand of football to City and their 1-1 draw this week was excellent.

The punishment does not fit the “ crime “

It’s like giving a 25 year prison sentence to someone who has stolen a bag of Maltesers from Tesco

Fine them. They shouldn’t have done it but this is scandalous and I hope they win the appeal. Spying myarse.

Jonathan De Guzman retires
at 08:01 20 May 2026

De Guzman was indeed an outdistancing player for us. And in his prime then. That’s not in doubt.

But best Swans team of all time? Certainly not. Leighton James, Robbie James, Dzemal Hadziabdic, Ante Rajkovic, Bob Latchford, Alan Curtis etc might have something to say about that. As their sixth place finish showed. And were top wifh two months of the season left. You had to be there.

Championship play off final
at 13:04 19 May 2026

Yes but there needs to be some perspective here. You can watch another team train. That’s fine. But not in the three day period leading up to a game. There is little to gain. If anything in reality. Set piece routines are of course rehearsed but you can learn far more from watching an opponent play a match. From the team strengths and weaknesses and individual areas that can be targeted.

Of course they should be fined as it’s now not allowed but that’s it. It’s really a storm in a tea cup as it was a high profile game. It goes on all the time but let’s be fair here. What have they gained if anything. Fine them and get on with it.

Leroy Fer?

The Leroy Fer who managed to help Norwich , QPR and Swansea all to get relegated from the Premier League by not being good enough. That Leroy Fer.

If you like players who can run all day up and down a pitch then yes he’s your man. But as a Premier League footballer ……

Now if you’d mentioned Robbie James ….before your time possibly but a proper footballer.

Excellent footballer. Can’t see the problem. A player dives and runs the risk of a yellow card. Gets pushed and makes the most of it. Using his experience to benefit his team.

Queens Park Rangers v Swansea City : Match day thread
at 22:08 21 Apr 2026

That was a very good away performance but what was most impressive was the shooting accuracy with 11 on target from 18 attempts. Plus we won almost every aerial challenge mainly through Cabango and Burgess. Both of our goals were fortunate. But it was a good finish from Ronald.

You can see why Tymon is so highly regarded. He was again excellent. Despite what our completely clueless friend Onehunglow might think.

New car - go electric or not.
at 18:54 20 Apr 2026

If you can afford it definitely go for electric or if not a plug in hybrid. And get the charger installation done at your home if you can. The Chinese manufactured cars are excellent and really good value for money.

It’ll cost you around 2p a mile to charge when you set it to charge between midnight and 7.00am. That is incredibly cheap motoring especially when compared to petrol and diesel costs. Don’t but a dispel car under any circumstances.

There is a tax coming in 2028 but it’s minimal when compared to savings on fuel which will be around £1700 to £2000 a year.

He’s a class act both as a footballer and a human being. As he showed recently for Coventry at Swansea.

An intelligent player who can dictate the tempo of a game. Always available to receive a pass even in the tightest of areas and with a superb range of passing his awareness and football brain is one or two steps ahead of most players.

Has excelled at Championship level but whether he is athletic and dynamic enough for the Premier league now remains to be seen. But I’m sure all Swansea fans would wish him well after his superb service to our Club.

Trunds returns to beat Chris Iwelumo in hard fought win
at 09:38 18 Apr 2026

Fair play to Trundle. At 49 he’s in incredible condition and what a role model. Not just his fitness but setting standards that take some believing. Still playing Welsh league football albeit mainly as a sub these days but since coming to Swansea in 2003 he’s been outstanding in all departments. One of the real Swansea City legends. And a top man as well. 👏🏻

That’s splitting hairs.

There is interest. Of course there is. It’s trivial to make the distinction quite honestly. No one is getting “ hood winked “. The facts are clear and obvious.

His value is in doubt though. After a superb season it might be a good time to cash in for around £15m. Possibly a bit more if we are lucky.

According to his Wikipedia stats he scored 3 in 38 at Kilmarnock and then on loan 12 in 27 at Alloa in League One Scotland. He’s done nothing really in his career to warrant a move to a Championship club and yet strangely there was some hype. Some fans even sang his name. It must be that he has a nice name.

He might improve. He has to. Or it’s back to League one in Scotland. Or Penybont.

He’s had a decent season in contrast to last year when he was abysmal.

His powerful shot can and certainly has caused keepers problems this season especially when he gets it off early but his all round play is still nowhere near the level required to do well in the Premier League. Struggles to link play, needs to work harder and I’m not sure if this season might be a flash in the pan. Not sure how he’s in the running for this award but he has got goals albeit a few from the penalty spot.

If Leeds or West Ham stay up he could end up there.
