Thoughts?

Yet you still have less fans than us.

No, no thoughts. Not even bothered to open the link.

Fair play to them

Do they realise that all you do is pass the ball back and across though??

Port Talbot is still Blue!

From Gorseinon to Morriston and to Sketty and beyond, Swansea City have long been the pride of the Jack Army. Famed for producing some of the world’s leading footballing lights, the country is now home to a Brazilian branch of Swansea City fans.

A burgeoning supporters club has been set up in homage to Michael Laudrup’s men with a Twitter page @SwanseaCity_BR and an online blog at swanseacitybr.blogspot.co.uk. It says its ultimate aim is to become the established home of Swansea supporters living in Brazil.

It means the country synonymous with Pelé, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho could soon have new heroes in the shape of Joe Allen, Ashley Williams and Scott Sinclair.

And the club, whose eye-catching passing style has also been compared with the tiki-taka pass and move game employed by world champions Spain, said they were delighted with their growing international appeal.

Jonathan Wilsher, Swansea City spokesman, said the club had received plaudits from all over the world since making their debut in the Premier League last season.

He said: “The Swans went global last season under the bright lights of the Premier League. And because of the stylish way the team went about their business, the club received praise from all corners of the world.

“The messages of support that flooded in to the club from those fans worldwide were amazing and gave everyone a huge lift on and off the field.

“The latest fan club to emerge from Brazil, a country that knows a bit about football, shows how far the Swansea City message has spread.”

This summer the club has announced the signings of Dutchman Jonathan De Guzman, Spanish players José Manuel “Chico” Flores and Michu and has installed Danish boss Laudrup.

And Mr Wilsher said it might be an idea to invest in a Brazilian flair player to keep the club’s newest fanbase happy.

He said: “Hopefully the club’s popularity can keep on growing domestically and globally as we look to establish ourselves as a Premier League club for years to come.

“In the meantime, perhaps we’ll have to try and sign a Brazilian player next to capitalise on our growing fan-base in South America.”

Um i support CCFC whats this got to do with CCFC ?

The Swansea C**t's have had a Brazillian!!!!

Plastic cunts

We have bluebirds down under in Australia

Swans chairman Huw Jenkins has welcomed the new fan club in Brazil, and suggested more should be done to expand the clubs newfound tenuous link in the country.

"I'm advocating a change in colour of the Swans home shirt to yellow. Seems to have worked well for Brazil in history, so why not for us?

"A blind stab in the dark shows that we will definitely sell more shirts out there if we just replace the Brazil badge with the Swans one.

"And our fans are always singing at the Liberty that it's just like watching Brazil, so there."

The club expects to generate billions in revenue and be bigger than nothing ever in the South American country by this simple, controversial re-branding manoeuvre, and become Premier League champions before Christmas.

Dropped like a stone once you get relegated and the 3 fans will pick another club

We have bluebirds down under in Australia

Shouldn't that be "Redbirds"?

Dropped like a stone once you get relegated and the 3 fans will pick another club

That's three more than you got in Malaysia.

Cardiff city message board. Oh and by the way, Neath is blue - get used to it

Cardiff have fan base in Malaysia, America and New Zealand so not a single f**k was given.

There were some members of the CCFC American fan club telling me to start a riot to protest the rebranding and said if it happened in america there would be fires in the streets and so forth.

You trying out this 'Cosmic Ordering' malarkey? How's that working for you?
Oh and mush, you lot ain't 'blue' no more. Keep up

Oi mush, Cardiff city will always be blue.

Only Brazil though? Light years behind us

This is good for Swansea. They're getting recognised in Brazil, we've been for ages recognised in a number of countries including the USA. Its good for Welsh football that we're starting to get on the map. It can only be a good thing.

Port Talbot is still Blue!

It's a shame Cardiff City aren't though

Well there is a large gypsy population in Brazil so that would explain it

The Favelas fan club giving support to the poor old gypos.

Nope - still didn't bother, still not interested, and nope, still no thoughts. Thanks for wasting a minute of your life for trying though. When are you jacks going to realise when we say we really aren't interested in your club, it means we really aren't interested

That's what you get when you're in the biggest league in the world. The fact that these are locals who have started following the club speaks volumes on the publicity the PL gets and to how far it reaches.

Yes, Cardiff, as do other Championship teams, have fans all over the world - But unfortunately, 99.99% of these are from Cardiff and have moved away.

If the Malaysians are serious about getting us to this level then they'd better start living up to the promises they've made.

jacks are really starting to do my head in on here! honestly don't see why they feel the need to be permenently on here talking about things happening down west, trying to take the piss and just making up fake accounts on here! christ don't see any of us on planet swans but you still accuse us of being obsessed with you?! honestly no one cares about your club just f**k off!

btw how are most off you on here all day everyday?! must be costing you an arm and leg paying for caravan club wifi?!

my bruv in law married a brazillian lady, they live in Rio, over the yrs and partic since the fa cup final loads of their mates now follow us....shud they go official to??

Apart from the fact it's not any more

In all fairness the slums of brazil looks a lot like Swansea
