Would it be good if Swansea came up with us?

Tue Nov 02, 2010 8:57 am

I think it would be good for Welsh football if our less fortunate friends from the west came up with us this season.One reason would be that Wales would have 2 teams in the Premiership highlighting Wales and we would have 2 thorns in the side of those Inglanders who say we should go back to our own league.And the other which is more important, is that it would be the final nail in the coffin of those idiots in the media, who still maintain that egg is the top game in Wales.I don't want to start a love in with the Jacks but I am making a few positive points that would crop up if they were to get promoted,through the play-offs of course. :lol:

And we could continue playing our derbies in the top level :ayatollah:

4-1 on Sunday Bellers 2, Whitts and Oli

I never really understand the "Good for Welsh football" thing! Yes it makes more awareness of Wales and of two teams but honestly, how much "Good" will it do with no or very little Welsh players in the team. We have Adam Matthews, they have Joe Allen. As for the awareness, I'd say that one team can make the same awareness.

Having said all that, I'd have them because we need the derby games and 6 points would be huge in the Premiership lol

WTF is the matter with people? In no way shape or form do I want them promoted. Ever. I'd much prefer if they were wiped off the face of the planet. Another bankruptcy would do just fine - three strikes and you're out sounds good to me.

The only thing they have over us is that they have been in the top division more recently than us - albeit nearly 30 years ago (though if you listen to them it was yesterday :D ) for their 2 seasons in total in that division.

Sad, deluded no-marks whose very existence revolves around Cardiff - and not just on the football front.

And we've a long way to go before we're up btw.

With two Welsh teams in the Prem it would raise interest in football thousands fold, and with more youngsters wanting to play gods game it would only benefit the National team. And it would persuade more kids to support there local teams than the big Prem teams.
I have; and always will have more respect for a Jack fan than some kid supporting one of the top 5 Prem teams, sorry none of you may agree. But another reason if we both went up we would have the local Derby to look forward to, and please dont tell me that it doesnt matter to you!!Can any of you tell me you are not looking forward to Sunday.

no it wouldn't be good, if we went up and they didn't we would gain a whole new generation of fans if they went up with us that new support would be split.
