Judging by the replys and bites iv touched a nerve.
Not sure what u are on about by kids for a quid but all our home games are sell outs unlike yours.
As for west ham did u not sell out against them in your play off games ( home and away).
Lets face it the times when the valleys were blue only are long gone and u are as liklry to see swans tops aswell as yours in every town in wales.
We hane double the twitter followers plus far more shirt sales.does that not mean we have a bigger following?.
And allso the fact that most of your games have hundreds of empty seats IN YOUR FIRST SEASON BY THE WAY suggests that 26k or ther about is your limit.
So ehy build mire? As annis as allready said its a waist of time.
Truth is you aint a big club and are now the second club in wales.
Now u can bitch and argue all u like but facts are facts.

West ham play off sold out. 2.000 tickets they give us and we give them.

Sorry to disappoint you Paul, but in my town I don't see swans tops, come too think of it I don't see swans tops anywhere. Probably will when I go to cardiff airport next. :laughing6:

Your very own 6 bysedd stated on here not long ago, that in early 80s, people from outside Swansea started going to your games to see some top flight football. But they were bullied by jacks for being outsiders and didn't go again. If only scummy jacks had accepted outsiders, you might have a fan base to match Cardiff.

He's just a bitter little prat Murphy. Hates everything to do with Cardiff and tries to claim that everything about swansea is superior. I reckon he received a kicking in the 80s or something. Bless him.

Unfortunately facts are something which you know nothing about. :lol:

If you are to judge support you go by gates - has always been that way.

Also,just because you say something twice doesn't make it true. :laughing6:

How was your game v Hull/Stoke a sell out when you were 1500 below capacity ?

The only game we haven't sold out the home sections (as in all tickets sold -same way as you would judge everybody else) was west Brom, and that was due to an away section going on sale close before the game and hardly anyone knowing !

But then of course you know better :lol:

You are just full of shit and fair play great entertainment.

Ye, I remember him saying that. Thing is I'm pretty sure it was in a thread where Cardiff fans from PT had been beaten up by 'Gwyn and the gang'! :laughing6:

If you look back on the thread you'll find a Pt bluebird saying he'll never go and watch you again! :lol:

If you're going into put things in context make sure you do it correctly! ;)

Probably did. But what pisses me off is that he went into the ninian sucking up to city fans, then comes on here calling us all the scum and vermin under the sun. I've said to him before, why didn't he act like that in the ninian. Typical cyber warrior!

I heard about that but it kicked over a red-blue debate. The port talbot boys are still at Cardiff in force.

Yes I dislike anything to with cardiff I agree.
However how can I be bitter? Off what exactly, I agree with u murphey in the early 80s and late 70s many lads from local tows xame to the vetch but were told to f**k off, and supported u.
But them days are gone and as for u saying u never see swans tops? Well there u are then but as we sell far more then u but swansea has a smaller population then cardiff then they must be sold somewhere? Would u not agree.

I would have thought the best place for the Jacks to open a shop outside Swansea would be Rover Way

Maybe the old heads murphy, but trust me the younger generation in PT is mainly Jack. It's a simple matter of geography whereby you support your local club. There is actually a reason why both Neath and Port Talbot where Cardiff strongholds and it goes back many many years. And obviously the fan base was passed down father to son. But that has been mostly eradicated. ;)

People don't go to airport to buy clothes.

If anything would take off at Cardiff airport it would be a boots.

Is it true you've made a bid for Wet Hams number eight ???

He would be a good addition, and go down well ....

You probably do sell more tops. Think about it? Most city fans wont be seen dead in red or anything with the current badge on it. You also make a tw*t of yourself going on about twitter followers being all swans fans. I follow pages from other clubs and I wont be alone in doing that. :laughing6:
