Too right. Remember the header they had from a corner when they almost came back to 2-2. Directly in front of us. Sooooooooooo close.

Amazing day. As a 15yr old, I literally thought life will never get better.

Remember it like yesterday.
I was working in the Midlands and had to drive to Swansea to join the coach armada only to pass within a mile of my lodgings!!
Also recall the number of Liverpool fan busses with good luck Swansea messages in their windows.
Went absolutely bonkers when Charles scored.
The only downside was Preston were relegated and Cardiff stayed up :-(

Poll: Should the summer transfer window close before the season starts?

Unless there were two groups they were to our left. Then again always thought you didn't know your left from right

Absolutely magic and THE best ever game I experienced as a 12 year old with my dad. Remember going on a Morris Bros coach.

I was 13 and went up with my dad on one of the 2 football specials trains. Unbelievable. Got bricked by the Cardys passing through Bridgend.

My brother would have been 66 today. I sat on the fence at the end of the game and watched as he was the first over the fence and on the pitch.

I was there with 2 friends, one was called Alan who died when we were 19. The other was a kid whose name I can't remember, we called him Ossie because he was Australian, he was at our school for a year or so then his parents went back to Aus and we never saw him or heard from him again!

On the way up our bus got a flat on the M50 and the driver didn't have the equipment, we were stuck there for over an hour until a passing lorry driver came to our rescue. We just about made kick off.

A joyous day for any 14 year old.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

One of my favourite days out as a Swans fan

As a 19 year old in a mini bus with 🍺 and lots of it

The game went exactly the way you wanted it to go

10,000 Swans fans in a crowd of around 17,000 I think it was

Fantastic memories. ❤️

Only an idiot would eat a turkey curry on Christmas day

Brilliant day. After the game, One Step Beyond was being played on a local boy racers car, at full pelt, and about 500 Swans fans surrounded the car and danced like crazy. So funny at the time.

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

As my brother & I got back to our car after the game, a couple of lads asked if we were Swansea fans and we thought, hello, were in for a ruck here, but it turned out they were Jacks who were on their way to the station and had found their way barred by a mob of angry Blackburn fans and just wanted a lift to the station which we were glad to provide.
