wtf look i grew up with lots of surfers/skaters from cardiff who have mates all over south wales in partic the gower. now all the gower lads always say they have NOTHING to do with swansea at all, they love the gower, they like coming clubbin etc in cardiff...but they all to a man cant stand swansea...weird that eh. Do we count places in the county of Cardiff at cardiff city now?? i can see why the jacks are desperate to have it but it aint there's. and yes Cardiff does have some rough area's magic daps....its a cosmopolitan place tho, any big city will have a butetwon/grangetown, ely, riverside, adamsdown. it also has a hih % of good places which is why house prices are high here.

Comparing Cardiff to Swansea is like comparing London to places like Slough or Accrington Stanley.

Oh so it was all a wind up was it? And there was me thinking i'd won yet another rather one sided arguement for the jacks. Such a shame then to find out it was all just an effort to wind me up..
Funny how all these lost arguements turn out to be just "wind ups" from you Cardiff fans. :roll:

I've won the argument-the gower is part of the old West Glamorgan which now goes under the name of the county of slumsea.

Very sad that you are on here spouting off. If i was you i'd be on planet vermin talking about your game with Sunderland.


No wilts you didn't win the arguement. I've told you that my old gower address ended with swansea, west glamorgan. SA3 ???. Why is this so difficult for you to understand? It's really quite easy. It means that the gower village in question is located within the city of swansea, which in turn is/was located within the county of west glamorgan. You should have leaded this stuff in primary school FFS!

leaded that stuff in primary school. WTF. Been on the glue again?

Otherwise people are just going to say that the education in Swansea is as poor as the towns economy and housing problems you have.

the beacons is north of most of south wales swansealad, some don't try and claim it as being yours aswell. swansea will never be a tourist attraction, its a shithole, with ugly scruffy people, get over it and go and talk about your shitty pretty city on planetvermin.

Re: Swansea Supporters bus refused entry @ Shrewsbury

Fri Aug 26, 2011 9:30 pm

Granted the Gower has some pretty scenery, but lets be fair. The place only gets visitors mostly from Wales and a few from England, Scotland and Ireland. It's not like the Gower is up there with Florida, Spain, Greece, Turkey, The Caribbean etc. :lol:

You can all go on about the Gower as much as you like. Who cares if it's part of Swansea or not. The Gower will never save Swansea as people around the world for the most part have never heard of the Gower let alone Swansea. You gypos are going to have to try better than the Gower card if Swansea is ever going to become more than just a little blip on the UK map.

But if cash was invested in swansea,and with its natural beaches, surfing,and the gower swansea could be a great place.
Just look at were we are,right on a 7mile sweeping golden beach,this country has no idea of how to make the most of our citys and towns.
Cardiff is the buisness city of wales,but swansea has so much more to offer,costal wise then cardiff and should be used,but again I come back to tha assembly giving very little money out side of cardiff,

'Gem' Cardiff in world's top 10 places to visit in 2011

Cardiff has been named by a magazine as one of the top 10 places to visit in the world this year.

The Welsh capital came sixth in the National Geographic Traveller list, alongside the likes of Patagonia in Argentina and the Azores in Portugal.

All 10 locations were deliberately chosen against the usual crop of places that are visited around the globe, with Cardiff described as a "gem".

"We pride ourselves on sniffing out the places that are less likely. There's two reason for this.

Cardiff has undergone major transformation over the past 15 years, which has shaped the city including the town centre and Cardiff Bay.

More than 18.3m people visited the city last year and the new £675m St David's shopping centre has helped it become the third most popular retail destination in the UK.

Hywel Thomas, spokesman for Cardiff & Co, said: "It reflects the city's remarkable journey from a bustling coal port to the pulsating, modern city that it is today.

"This has been a decade or so of significant transformation in the city's physical landscape - a period that witnessed the advent of devolution and the creation of the Senedd, a fitting home for the Welsh Government in Cardiff Bay.

"Alongside it stands the Wales Millennium Centre, attracting the best West End musicals and operatic productions from around the world.

"Visitors can now hop on a water taxi from the Senedd to the city centre and the Millennium Stadium which will host the opening competitions of the 2012 Olympics Games.

"It is evident from this latest testimonial in the National Geographic that the Cardiff is a city being talked about far and wide and for all the right reasons.

Think about what your doing, don't you feel a bit pathetic?
I'm guessing that your a fully grown man, correct?

So what are you doing on a Cardiff City FC forum as a Jack protesting that the Gower is part of Swansea. I think we all know that you or more or less correct but nobody cares, it's the fact your getting so worked about something so stupid that's keeping everyone entertained.

So go away and concentrate on getting behind your team tomorrow in the hope that they can score a goal.

You lot really like to wallow in your victim status don't you? At the end of the day there has been a lot of private investment in Cardiff. A lot of local entrepreneurs have put their balls on the line to try and succeed in business and make Cardiff a more successful area. When I go down to Swansea I don't really see that, as Swansea relies heavily on public sector jobs and money i.e The DVLA. I bet you Swansea has a lot more public sector money splashed on it, per head of the population, than Cardiff. Maybe it's time the people of Swansea got the chip from off their shoulder, stopped moaning about Cardiff, and got on with their lives and tried to do something with themselves besides moaning and wallowing in this pathetic victim status you all seem to carry around with you!

Glad i'm keeping you all entertained, but no i don't think defending the fair city of Swansea from the scandalous lies that are spread on here is pathetic at all. When some clown starts telling me that the place i spent the first 28 years of my life isn't in Swansea at all, even though it quite obviously is, don't you think i've got a right to put him straight on that? By the way, i don't buy into all this "its only a wind up" at all. I think the truth of the matter is that you lots blinkered perception of Swansea is so steeped in distrust and even hatred that you minds won't allow you to accept that Swansea does have a lot of stuff going for it, and that includes having the first ever designated area of outstanding natural beauty in the gower peninsula. Anyway, can't hang around here putting you lot straight on stuff. Off to meet the boys for a pint and a take in a game of premiership football. C'mon the jacks!

Mostly private sector businesses down the bay i.e Atradius and many others. The money for the barrage and re-development came from Cardiff Council i.e funded by the taxpayers of Cardiff. Not The Welsh Assembly giving handouts to the area. As for someone who can barely spell calling me a retard, that really is funny fair play!! :ayatollah:

Actually I live and grew up in the States.....We studied Wales as a part of a UK section, when I was in grammer school. I have always heard Cardiff was a cool place to visit long before I had any interest in football. No offense but until I started following Cardiff I had not heard of Swansea.

Haha! That response tells me one thing; you've lost this argument! Billions spent on the Bay??? Where did you get that figure from, your backside?? I can guarantee you that the money spent to redevelop Cardiff Bay did not run into billions of pounds, and it came from Cardiff Council- stop making up lies! As I've said in a previous post, you really like to wallow in your victim status down there. Grow up and move on,you've lost this argument. Cardiff and the surrounding areas are successful and vibrant; Swansea just isn't and relies heavily on public sector and European objective one funding for investment. People around this way are just better at making money ourselves and not relying on handouts from the Government. Wheelchair ? Bit rich from someone waiting for a hip op! Must be all the strain on that hip after years of running away from Cardiff supporters :D

A simplified version of the history of the barrage for Swansealad69. Specifically take note of the part which states; "In 2000 the Cardiff Bay Development Corporation was dissolved, and the Welsh Assembly awarded a contract to Cardiff County Council to manage the barrage, as the Cardiff Harbour Authority (CHA)."

The Assembly building wasn't part of the barrage development that was funded by Cardiff Council, because planning for the Bay development began in the 1980's, before Wales had even considered devolution. It's just a building that employs politicians for Wales from her Capital. What's the problem with that ? Most countries have Parliaments or Assemblies based in the Capital of the Country. Read the link, it proves that what you're saying is absolute embittered nonsense. Now get that chip from off your shoulder and move on sunshine. You do realise you've lost every argument here, and you're now arguing about some f*cking building down the Bay that houses politicians? Jesus, you West Walians are sad! :ayatollah:
