Pre Season wishes

Though no idea yet who will be manager or what players we will have what would be your ideal pre season games:

2 local sides away and a few testers or a jaunt abroad?...not Austria though :bluebird:

I think it would be a good idea to not have a trip abroad. Some money will have to be saved and that looks like a good way to save money. I know the fans enjoy those tours, but it's a luxury that would make sense to not have.

It doesn't really matter who we play in pre-season, we went down to Cornwall to play non league teams the last time we had a promotion season.

I just hope there's been preparation and that matches have already been arranged, but waiting to be announced.

A game vs Wrexham would be ideal for both clubs, us more than them

Yes I would like the Cornwall trip or somewhere like that. It was a great week away. Then a couple of games against League opposition.

My pre-season wish is to get some enthusiasm back and not to hear the name Wrexham anymore

Good luck with that.

Our fans have long said the Jacks are obsessed with us but I'm afraid some of our fans are starting to get obsessed with Wrexham.

It will get mentioned a lot, they everything a lot of our fans want our club to be in pretty much every way in terms of moving forward.
Some city fans are equally obsessed with Swansea as you say they are, it’s just a rivalry thing nothing wrong with it.
