Do we WANT Premier League football???? 16:13 - Sep 2 with 15022 viewsGammon

Lots of Swans fans I know are enjoying life in the Champ these days. No stress of going down, matches are better and we dominate games more often than not....

I don't know if I can handle life back in the Prem. Its too stressful and with our owners we come straight back down anyway.

I miss our Danish, Korean and Swedish fans ... they have disappeared now along with our plastic part time glory hunters . I would go back to the Prem so we can talk about stadium expansions again.

Aye let's not bother being ambitious then.
Just stay as a middle of the table or even better go down to the third tier where life is so much less stressful

Why would we come straight back down with these owners?

They threw loads of money at trying to stay up but Jenkins spent it unbelievably badly.

Ticket sales suggest a lot of people do, yeah.

Financially we'll need it to avoid selling our best players every season, which had many on here in bits all through the summer.

For me it means its easier to watch the games as I cannot get to swansea. I used to try to see the closer away games and get to one of two home games. Ive just had a kid so I cannot do that so easily anymore.

It wasn't stressful when we first went up. It was fuking amazing! We were the talk of world football. We deserved our place there and we were playing great football. It became stressfull when we were playing like kunts and desperately trying to avoid conceding, and eventually relegation. If we can stick to our principles, we will remove the stressors :)

Being in the Premier League was great until certain people got greedy and arrogant.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Good question.
Unless we could be mid-table, at least, I honestly can't see the attraction of paying a small fortune to watch us getting battered and constantly looking at relegation.
Winning the odd game against a 'big team' doesn't make us a big team or even competitive.
We did well under Rodgers and Laudrup and I would give almost anything for another European adventure gut generally I'm happy watching us doing well at any level.
Why would our owners make a difference - we were on the skids before they arrived which is why the sane shareholders raised they bring in new management - the only ways we would get money in from a new regime would be to borrow either form the shareholders or from banks.

Of course we want to be in the Premier League. The moment we stop striving to play at the highest level we can, we might as well give up.

If we go up and come back down at least we will be financially stable. In fact we’d actually have a lot of cash.

Of course we want to go up. We just have to play the first season with whatever players got us up.
Honestly think yoyo between the Prem and Championship could be profitable in the extreme if you could pull it off.

Its just a ride.

Why should we give up?
If the aim is to be the best all but one is doomed to failure.

Fuk yoyoing. What's the point in that?
I'd take it for a few years if it brought us some financial clout, but I think we could stay up and be poster boys again without it.
We are working on becoming financially stable, so yoyoing shouldn't be a requirement.

We should aim to do the best that a club of our stature can achieve - which is arguably just inside the top half of the Premier League.

I've loved the championship. Worrying about staying up every year was very tiresome.

However you've got to be ambitious. I just hope we've learnt from previous mistakes and if we did get promoted then we'd not abandon our principles.

One of the biggest cockups for me was not expanding the stadium. Should have been done at year 1 in the PL. We've lost years of youngsters not being able to go. You can point to lower attendances now but it don't wash with me. We've missed a trick there. There should be more seats available and at lower prices.

Don't misquote me you clown. I didn't say to be the best, I said to play at the highest level we can.

‘I don’t know if I can handle life back in the Prem’ is one of the most embarrassing comments I’ve ever read on here.

What are we playing for, if not promotion?

I loved the Prem. It was my favourite time as a Swan's fan.

Of course they are enjoying the championship we play superb football, even last season, we score goals and are top of the league, would it be the same if we were in the same place as Joke Shitty ?... I doubt it.

Only Cardiff come straight back down, they are excellent at it. 100% record. They don’t generally enjoy the championship either because they watch kick and clap dogshit.

Perhaps the op is thinking of them and has got himself lost on the internet and ended up on a rival’s board.
