The weekend that ensured everything for Swansea City

The build up, the rivalry, the pressure, the game, the outcome and loads more this evening on the Indy. Take your pick, relax and enjoy the final part of the weekend.

You won’t read about this in the media, they tend to forge their own road based on their bias and unproven belief. We just deal in fact.

⚽️ The dominance kicks us off

As we now know it’s eight wins from eleven, one draw and just the two losses. All of a sudden this derby game was of such importance to Cardiff City fans the Bristol City made up rivalry was forgotten.

Then it’s Erol from Bute who tried some psychological stuff from his magic hat and amateur book of Turkish wizardry. It really wasn’t a delight.

⚽️ Erol of Bute

Luke Williams was talking the talk last week leading up to the derby win. But ‘actions’ speak louder than words. And they did.

⚽️ Luke’s progress

The economic situation and the reasons for the rivalry, how the exclusions and bubble trips started after Swansea fans rioted in Cardiff, and the Welsh assembly role in making sure that Swansea will forever have no regard for anything Cardiff.

⚽️ One for you ten for us, the rivalry

Then of course the game itself where the brutal truth was there for all to see.

⚽️ Cardiff outclassed as expected

The bitterness of those folks down east overspills in a humorous fall out of angst.

⚽️ Have you ever done the double, have you ….

That’s yer lot folks !

What a week that was !
