It's not so much of me boycotting but I'm finding it difficult to attend ATM so if I don't maybe it'll be seen as a boycott but not an intentional one . | |

Completely agree. Most of us were here before them and most of us will be here after they’ve gone. If people feel the need to protest, there are other ways of doing it. Crowds are dwindling anyway because we aren’t great to watch and we lose more than we win. | | | |

Personally I would prefer to attend and let them know what I think. Not attending would make no difference financially to them as my ticket is already paid. They will get a decent gate anyway with the away end probably full. | | | |

The team was in the same place as the Sousa season. The team had a solid back four / five Rangel Tate Monk Williams Taylor, Britton and Gower and no strikers. I saw a 0-3 v Middlesbough with Keri Morgan and Jazz Richards in midfield. Gomez, Bodde and Scotland had all gone and Sousa brought Lopez and Beattie who did not cut it. A decent managerial appointment will do the team wonders. Wood and Azeem will add physicality and strength when fit. Wilson Ntjoe and Kukharevic need to be given their chances Sheehan should have done it today. | |

Bodde had not gone. He was injured. Gomez and Scotland had gone to Wigan at that time but your sentence is misleading. | | | |

No. Sousa came in pre season, realised there weren’t many goals in the team and turned a tiki taka side into a more pragmatic side. He had a clear idea of what he wanted to do and he did it. We’re halfway through the season, we don’t have a manager, we’re not far off a relegation battle and we don’t have any real idea how we want to play. That Sousa side was full of leaders and had been playing effective and attractive football before he got here. We’ve been in decline more or less since the owners got here and we don’t have anyone who will grab the game by the balls (maybe Joe Allen if he stays fit). I can’t see many similarities. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Completely different and pointless comparison scenario. We were a club on the way up then with lower league history. We are now a club on the way down after a lengthy premier league spell including domestic trophy wins and European experience. Reflect on it. | | | |

Did Sousa or Jenkins bring in Beattie? I always thought it was Huw Jenkins. | | | |

The boycott of games at Blackpool had no effect on Oyston leaving he would have stuck it out much longer, in fact it quite amused them, they only sold up when the court case went against them and they were forced to. | | | |

It affected their coffers though. Our lot won't like that, they won't want to spend their own money and hopefully it will be the catalyst to them getting a buyer. [Post edited 27 Dec 2023 9:58]

Should we on 10:51 - Dec 27 with 2322 views | builthjack | If you have a season ticket you are going to attend games. I will also attend a few away games and get behind the team. You have to. As a Swans fan it is awful to see the mess that these owners are getting us into. Duff should never have been appointed. Cheap option perhaps? It seems mistake after mistake is being made at the top. Personally, I never trusted them from the start, I stated that many times 6/7 years ago. Things need to change, quickly. | |

We just HAVE to do something UJ, we just CANNOT sit on our hands and moan and bitch. I suggested a boycott of home games as a start as it will hit them where it will hurt them, their pockets, yes I know season tickets have already been paid for but we have to start somewhere, the next step is to not renew your season ticket, I know lots of people who aren't renewing, yes people will have a swipe at me saying I don't go to many home games but I can honestly put my hand on my heart and say if I did live closer and I had a season ticket I would not be going to any home games, i go to lots of aways, I suggest that people save their money and go to aways instead. | | | |

I need to be mindful that when advocating people boycott games I don’t actually go myself. Maybe I have no right to say it. But I have I suppose. We get enough TV coverage to show the football world that we are serious about removing the toxic ownership. Empty stadiums will be noticed. | |

That only works if fans do it in big numbers, which won’t happen. Different in the Petty days where matchday revenue was a huge chunk of our income and there weren’t so many season ticket holders. The chants against Preston split opinions, but other than the word Yank I thought they were great (I’m not easily offended, but it’s easy for someone watching that to think it’s because of their nationality, not their competence). They won’t go anywhere until they get an acceptable offer, but in terms of letting them and everyone else know what we think of them, I think that more effective than 500 or so people not turning up | | | |
