You are clueless, the FA is taken ten times more seriously by the big four and every other team.....

That is an 'urban myth' any team can have any shaped flags they like
Quote from TheFA.com
This 'triangle corner/half-way line flags' story is definitely a myth.
Flags can be any shape, as long as there is a flag.
The FIFA Law simply states:
Flagposts
A flagpost, not less than 1.5 m (5 ft) high, with a non-pointed top and a flag is placed at each corner.
Flagposts may also be placed at each end of the halfway line, not less than 1m (1 yd) outside the touch line

For the 12th year on the bounce, Swansea again won the Heroin Consumer Of Year Cup as awarded by the Poppy Growers Association Of Pakistan. And they've won various accolades from the European Hobo Destination Society.

Only thing Chelsea could win in all respect at that stage of the season and the EL. Same with Liverpool and us. They went all out because it was their only option. Doesn't mean its a great trophy. It means they were trying to win whatever they could to save some face as big and world renown clubs. Its embarrassing when clubs of their stature, pouring so much money in etc. on world class players win absolutely nothing.

I congratulate you on your win because the League Cup to sides like Swansea and us is a great coup but to compare it to winning the globally recognised FA Cup is ridiculous. There are 3 honours British teams compete for that are globally recognised and aired and they are the CL, PL and the FA Cup.

If you win the FA cup now that'd be massive and you'd know it because you'd be celebrating it a lot more, you'd get a lot more global recognition and a lot more people would be singing your praises. There is a reason the proper treble is the PL, CL and the FA Cup and thats because they are the 3 big competitions to win.

I think proving you could compete with the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea last season on the day was more of a coup and deserved more recognition for you than winning the cup in all honesty.

Its nothing personal, its just how it is. I notice that there is a new BBC documentary being aired soon called 'Living In Swansea'. Is it the companion documentary to the 'Homeless' series that was also recently aired over three episodes? Again, that's three episodes. Here's the link to the BBC website just in case you missed it:

I imagine that the great football is a welcome and unique distraction. The methadone must also help too.

You're entitled to your opinion. I disagree with it.

Not the best comeback. As said, its nothing personal, its just what the nation has watched detailed in the BBC documentary. You know, the one that was over three episodes. Here's the link in case you were in a methadone haze and missed it:

There are some helpline numbers there and I hope they will be of some use.
