" HOW WILL WE COMPARE WITH THE JACKS ? "

Firstly, you've not included the League Cup away games, which were all well attended including our highest away following of the season against Liverpool. A decline in away support after the first season is only natural though.

Secondly, I was thinking that you'd be more concerned about how you compared with us on the pitch rather than in terms of away followin.

'Away following' in the loosest sense based om those 2nd season stats

Looking at your avatar (Trundle ) confirms that (in comparison) your Dicks have always been bigger than our Dicks, Jack

Trouble is, after a heavy season this year and a worse one to come next year, you'll be reaching out for the Viagra just to 'keep up' with us!

Going down (in more ways than one, eh?)

hahaha whooppy dooo

Once again you show how small time you lot are by trying to compare attendances .. that's all you have got to cling onto

Desperate wannabees

Shhhhh, you are missing the whole point GowerJack. Your attendances are already falling and it'll only get worse as Cardiff City retake the limelight (as they did for much of THIS season without even being in the Premiership ) and your fans go scampering back to the safety of their rugby clubs

Pressure on for your guys now. We have nothing to lose in comparison to your 'first half of the season' wonders and the declination signs are already there

You simply cannot escape facts

The problem is with Swnasea they don't have a natural base of support, I mean a true hardcore. They all support Liverpool and United on the side. Take that into account and the figures aren't so bad, plus the amount we bang on about them being a small club those figures are decent for a small club.

However I couldn't give a damn if we sell out every away game next season if we go down, it's all about what happens on the pitch.

Fair points, Gramps

The away attendances certainly dropped off this season which is understandable to an extent as the but it should be put into a context that for a few of those games the club decided against taking the full allocation but did sell out the allocation that was taken.

Your club decided against taking more than 50% of the allocation in some games because they would have had to pay for the 2nd 50% in full whether they sold them or not had they done so and they obviously didn't think it was financially viable to do so as the demand was not there.

Correct. That's not to say we wouldn't have sold many more of those tickets of course but just that it was deemed not financially viable to take the risk of an extra 1,500 tickets at sometimes £50 a pop.

Seems perfectly sensible to me.

It would do because your a small club and can't sell many tickets, seems laughable to us though poor little old Swansea town

hahaha whooppy dooo

Once again you show how small time you lot are by trying to compare attendances .. that's all you have got to cling onto

Desperate wannabees

In other words oh f**k what can I say to this, oh well I will admit that they are a much bigger club and try and take the piss in a jokey way, we are starting with attendances, on the pitch stuff will follow over the next ten seasons

I got no problem with you having bigger attendances you are in a bigger city, but that is all you have over us. and anything else is just wishful thinking

I think that we will get better away attendances than them for pretty much each game. I only say that because we are a bigger supported club compared to them.

I think we will perform better than you in pretty much every game

Comedy gold! You turn on any sky game this past season and Swansea's name always pops up, be it la liga or the championship. You never get any mentions! You have to earn the right to get the global limelight like us, you are nowhere near it yet.

Really? What a ridiculous claim. You get mentioned now and again on sky - doesnt make you "global"..

The amount of press we get abroad is incredible. Spain, Germany, Holland, USA, S.Korea, Japan, Denmark, Sweden just for starters. We get quite a few visitors coming from these countries to watch us. f**k knows how they get tickets as its hard enough for the public over here to get an actual matchday ticket these days!

We didn't need to rebrand either to achieve it mush

So we've gone from a few mentions on Sky, to worldwide domination in one single post? you don't half like to exaggerate!

We get quite a bit of coverage from abroad too "mush".

Are you for real? Take a look at what I said, i.e. that we had better coverage 'as a whole' over the season than your Mickey Mouse Cup (your fans words not ours ) winning team

This is the bit you need to consider seriously, Jack:

YOUR team have indeed played well in midfield and defence, whilst flattering to deceive. Your forward line (Michu apart BEFORE the final) had a stuttering season and once other teams (Bradford apart ) had sussed him out he's had (let's be honest here) a quiet season since

Absolutely NO coincidence there and best get rid NOW if a reasonable offer comes in. He won't score 20 again next season, my feathered friend

So let me get this right we flattered to deceive and should sell Michu.
Hmm great advice that. Looks like ML is going to ignore it though his plan is to play Michu in his best position and buy a striker or two. Crazy I know.

Comparing yourselves to an admirable counterpart is rather flattering.

Fair play on that tell the rest of your fans they try to deny this fact, as for on the pitch, wait and see over the next ten seasons, I think we will p!ss all over you, you are due a few dodgy signings and a dodgy manager, then you have no backing or plan B

Well, only time will confirm but can you HONESTLY put your hand on your heart and say (a) your side haven't been on the slide since Wembley, and (b) Michu has been firing anything but blanks in recent weeks?

Accepting that you politely 'rolled over' for Sir Alex' final ManUre game at Old Trafford, do you really feel your club have 'performed' in recent weeks? If so, then I suggest you are deluding yourself...A LOT!

Our intensity has dropped and at this elite level even a slight drop spells trouble, but we have only lost fairly to spurs, arsenal, united and chelsea since wembley and got robbed away at wba. Hardly a crisis, especially when you consider we sold our main striker in jan. With regards to michu 3 goals in 10 is clearly a drop but as I said we will buy at least two strikers in the summer to take the heat off him. And to complete my answer even if we had been on the slide since wembley and michu has been off form why would it worry me with regards next season?

:lol:

If you could just clarify which of the 52 previous posts on this thread you were at, that'd be great

Obviously JackF's, you beauty

Only the deluded could come back with an answer that admits your team have been shite since Wembley and your main striker has gone 'dry' before trying to argue you have nothing to fear for next season

As HE said; comedy gold!

Your best post in some time.

The Obsessed jacks. Constantly on here - which is a, errrr, Cardiff City Forum. Its like they don't they have homes to go to. But it all makes sense when you consider their plight:

"Series following the lives of Swansea's homeless. The programme discovers if anything has changed in [i]the city which boasts the highest number of homeless people in the country."[/i]

And aside from the BBC documentaries, you just cannot get a more embarrassing story than this about the place where you live:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-21098006

The football must be a distraction from their dire social and economic situation. No wonder their managers keep f*cking off. If the homeless dont get you then the measles will.
