No doubt it will be in a safe place somewhere as one day it may be a collectors item
Had a particularly good picture of Lee Trundle on the front i seem to remember | | | |

Don't know about you, but there's something to be said about understated ceremonies. Not everything needs to be blared out from a loudspeaker — especially the Liberty's. I seem to remember Phil posting on here previously about the wall of fame, so it's not totally under the radar.
Perhaps you could have your own wall somewhere, Dwight. | | | |

Jason Scotland, cost us 25k, scores 45 goals in 90 appearances.
He deserves a place. | |

You sometimes have a habit of opening your mouth and putting your foot in it, no more so than with your post here.
If you've been a regular reviewer of PS, and the Trust, over the last few years you would have been able to follow the announcement and posts regarding the development of the Wall of Fame. Had you been in attendance at the games that followed each batch of names being unveiled you would have witnessed the names being announced within the stadium too. The only reason you think it might be poorly organised is that you have decided it is, without the slightest understanding of what has gone on behind the scenes. Alternatively, it suits whatever reason you have to sling mud at anything positive that is going on at the club. If its not good enough for you Dwight, why not put yourself forward to do something better rather than slagging things off from behind the safety of your keyboard? I doubt you'll do that though, your not that kind of 'man'.
Personally I think its rather a nice touch that the fans have the opportunity to mix informally with the ex-players and their family representatives prior to the unveiling at the wall itself. You accuse the organisation of being amateur? An accusation that would only be made by someone being deliberately vindictive or spiteful.
Finally, who the hell are you to question the worthiness of the names being inducted? What have you ever done on the field for Swansea City? Even as a fan, there's more to do than simply being a second team fan and minor WUM on a message board which you seem to be. | |

"Finally, who the hell are you to question the worthiness of the names being inducted? What have you ever done on the field for Swansea City?"
Was that a criteria for being selected for this committee? I don't remember seeing a request for applications for being on the committee. I didn't realise Phil was an ex pro.
Oh well, maybe this is a way of getting your face in the next film when we win our first European trophy. | |

Quite a poor comeback with your traditional dig that you can never elaborate on

A pitiful attempt by you in response. You must try harder Dwight. | |

Eye,
Congrats on top post.
DYSS would only have former Manure players on that wall | | | |

I full agree with it all.
But it should be as someone said 5-8 names a season. Who cares how long it takes.
And a player should be retired to be on it.
Then it will be great to bring that player back for all the fans to see.
A bit like the WWE Hall of Fame. (night before Wrestlemanina) Yes its 'entertainment' but they have it just right.
But hey ho, it's nearly done already. 2 years time it's full. | |

Nice thing about having it outside the stadium is,it gives the fans a chance to meet the former swans and have photos taken with them,or an autograph or two. Met Cliff jones last time,and what a nice gentleman. Gave a lovely talk about the 58 world cup and how he thought Wales would have beaten Brazil if John Charles was fit. | | | |

Funny you should want Jason Scotland in the hall of fame. I was just reading the swans fanzine 'Swansea Oh Swansea' & there's a section called 'Meet The Jack'. In it, some guy (who claims he's been watching the Swans for 41 years) called John Rees claims Jason Scotland "is his most despised Swans player. I never rated him". Can you imagine the dross he must have seen in 40 years (like Colin McDonald or Aiden Newhouse) yet he's chosen a guy who scored 45 goals in 90 games. So, as it was pointed out, we are never all gonna agree on a top 100. | | | |
