Fans survey...

Not posting this because the Swans came top, but it's interesting that your fans finished 11th in the poll before a match has been played.

The Swans have come top of a table of the Premier League’s most loved and hated football clubs.

They finished just above West Brom, Norwich and Everton in a survey of football fans across the UK.

And despite having not yet kicked a ball in English football’s topflight tier, Cardiff City stand in a respectable mid-table position, having finished eleventh in the poll.

Big spending Chelsea was named the Premier League’s most hated club, finishing just below Manchester United, Stoke and Liverpool.

:lol: Alright, I didn't get the point across, but I reckon if that survey was carried out a few years back, you would've been lower down on that list. I read on here quite often about the work your club are doing to change perceptions of your fan base, maybe it's paying off?

Pretty impressive that we are there... Although I quite like the "nobody likes us" mantra.

The love for Swansea has a lot to do with the hate for Cardiff. Being the other Welsh club that is considered the least of the two evils plus the fact you have done well this last couple of seasons has helped your popularity no ends. If Cardiff were to be removed it would not be long before you became the Welsh gits of the football world.

However expect the Welsh thing to become more hated now with both clubs being in the top division. Our arrival is going to cost you some of your popularity. In fact it is going to get intense between the English sides and us, should be fun.

Noticed a lot more 'what are they doing playing in England'? over the last few years. If some fans say that about us, then they have to say it about Swansea too. Not the big clubs, but the ones who think that we have taken away their right to be in the PL. Even the so-called Old Firm in Scotland seem to have started.

We had quite a bit of that when we went up, as for the Old Firm, if they can't be arsed to look up the history, and the fact that the Welsh clubs have played in the pyramid system down here since the beginning of the last century then that's their problem. Bollocks to the Old Firm :thumbup:

This survey was probably carried out at the last game in the liberty stadium that's why only 6000 filled it out and we all know that most of them have a soft spot for us :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I'm suprised we are that high up, I still thought we had a reputation. I think its just down to all the plastics hate each other and are indiffernet to us.
