But whatever floats your boat I guess. [Post edited 24 Feb 2015 18:32]

Not in the best of taste is it? As a magazine representing our support, I don't think we should take a chance on offending any of our supporters. No-one can have too many fans. | | | |

Thanks, and America is Swansea's best opportunity for growth as a market of support. I'm a good example. NBC just began showing ALL Premier League games (all 10 games each week are free on NBC Sports and NBC Alt Channels for most cable subscribers) at the beginning of the 2013-2014 season. I'd conservatively estimate that PL fandom in the USA has more than doubled in less than two seasons since then. [Post edited 24 Feb 2015 18:56]

Jack swan issue #34 - Is cover too controversial? on 19:30 - Feb 24 with 7894 views | UltraAmericanJack | Tummer pretty much sums it up. I don't particularly care for it, but whatever floats your boat I guess... I will say as someone whose been supporting Swansea since 1991 I personally find it rather disappointing that someone who issues a magazine would stoop to that level. I'm against American ownership of the club as well, even though I'm American myself, and what corporate America stands for and what that flag stands for are two totally different things. However, it's your call. I've enjoyed your magazine and will continue to either way. | | | |

Jack swan issue #34 - Is cover too controversial? on 20:22 - Feb 24 with 7722 views | Nookiejack | I don't like it at all. Agree hate to think what our American fans will think. Would wind a lot of people over here if people in states started to burn our Welsh flag. Maybe it should have been two carpet baggers - on their way home with an empty wagon - something like that. | | | |

Jack swan issue #34 - Is cover too controversial? on 19:46 - Feb 24 by LeonisGod | Tsk, typical touchy yank. I'd have thought you'd be used to people burning your flag by now . To the OP - bit too inflammatory for my liking, but it certainly grabs the attention. |
Ha! Yeah, but this one seems to be quite a stretch. Burning the flag just because the guy happens to be from San Diego. Now if he had burned the California flag, I would be cool with that. ;-) (just kidding I love California; we Texans just have a bit of a complicated rivalry with them.) | |

I don't think burning a Russian flag would have worked Maybe next year ! | |

Apart from philby, McLean and chums nobodybreally went East. We go west to usa for holidays, visit family and have fun in a free country. It ain't perfect but USA for me every time | |

First time I visited the states, a guy from San Fran told me 'remember that the further west and then north you go, the more relaxed the people. The further east and then South, the more up tight'. No idea if that's really true, but for some reason I rembered it. I certainly enjoyed Seattle. Never been to Texas though(or California). | | | |
Jack swan issue #34 - Is cover too controversial? on 21:05 - Feb 24 with 7526 views | Neath_Jack | It's obvious what you mean by the photo, a big two fingers up to the American "Investors". People will always find a reason to take offence, even when it is patently obvious that you are not intending to offend the normal American fan. But on the other hand, people get awfully touchy about flags. I'll get the outrage bus out the garage for you. #JesuisJackSwanTv | |
