There never has been any protest, apart from a handful of people on social media and a few inside the liberty.


They just rolled over eh? Never, surely? Be run out of Swansea if ever happened there I heard. Trust, a wonderful thing.

What is there to protest over ? The team were playing poorly and a small amount of fans decided to take it out on the chairman and some of the ex board members , that’s the reality of the situation.
Now that there has been a marked up-turn in performances and results , the protests seem to have disappeared , funny that.


So the fact some senior trust members knew about the sale to the yanks and let it happen when they knew the trust would vote against it doesn’t matter anymore after a few wins or did gonzo and co just ignore the trust I can’t recall? Modern football fans I guess, bending over for the dollar, nice look. From locally owned to hedge fund city. :roll:

We are one to talk.

Not a peep (after first resentment of the rebrand) once we started buying quality players and top of the Championship. Not a peep in the Premiership when we were beating Man City. Then we start losing and down the bottom and suddenly we are protesting for Blue.

Let those in glass houses and all that.


You were obviously not part of the protest march the day of the Man City game? Don’t rewrite history because of your lack of action against the rebrand

The trust at Swansea only speak for the trust and it’s members, which I believe is less than 1500 these days.
The vast majority of Swans fan, aren’t interested in what the trust is up to these days. They seem to be past their sell by date.

Nope and neither were 27,500 others.

First proper organised protest was May the year we got promoted. Nothing while we were winning the Championship. There was a couple of hundred there.

Man City game again a couple of hundred.

When we started struggling it suddenly increased to over a thousand.

Funny that.

Oh right I thought it was the best thing ever, the trust, being locally owned, what could possibly go wrong? Turn coats

I never once wrote them off when they appointed the fella they got now.. sometimes it's the simple things that get results and he has done that by not being so expansive and just shut up shop and hit teams on the counter.
I will.

Hate to say it but hats off to to Jack geezers. They needed points and got them with no faddling about :banghead:
I want Cardiff to get to the Premier League, so they are at the highest level but hate the fact we will be amongst the garb at the bottom every season like the Jacks, etc.

It's certainly not a given lose a game and those around them win and they are back in the mix. Games coming up will be scrappy hard games with the opposition trying to get every point possible.

My gut says they'll stay up but it's so tight down bottom anything could happen.

Even bigger month coming for them now, playing a few teams around them who are also fighting hard, unlike the last month.
So close, by far the most interesting aspect of that league this year.

All you can say is it could be the most boring set of matches ever seen if they keep parking the bus and other sides do the same to avoid defeat? But if keeps them up they won't complain! :old:

God I hope they dont stay up.. Maybe then they may get round to singing proper football songs, not bloody Hymns and Arias, (the clean version). Whats all that about.

First post of the season, why one has waited so long? Not a fan when bottom of the league is it? People in Swansea are naturally obsessed with all things Cardiff, they can’t help it, it’s in the water, it’s the way it is. Plenty might want to see you relegated into oblivion again, but that’s about it. :occasion5:
