Just renewed season ticket 22:23 - Jan 5 with 5516 viewssw02sea

I had to wait just in case the owners made another Duff appointment.
I know some will say I can’t be a “proper “ supporter if I didn’t renew, no matter who came in.
But I'm revitalised after doing a bit of research into Luke Williams’s ethos, on how he manages a football club.

Well said Flash. Not going to games seems to have become a bit of a badge of honour lately. Wonder if it would be the same without streaming.


I took my dogs for a walk on the beach rather than watch the stream one day ( or go down the stadium )
I was one of the latter games under Duff
Wouldnt have cost me anything either way to watch it but apathy had set in.
Hope we are on the up again now

A badge of honour? No, maybe it's because people have had enough of how we are being run? Maybe they had enough of rubbish on the pitch with no signs of improvement, maybe Williams can change that.

Incredible if true ... and sure Builthy's sources are fairly accurate


I was joking.

I don’t understand these people who don’t renew. You either love it or you don’t I guess.
I suppose for some, if we are Premier League or top 6 Championship they would renew.
To me, support is always, no when we are up top.

After over 50 years goingto the Swans I just don't enjoy it anymore. It's nothingto do with our league position. I enjoyed our days in the lower leagues quitea bit, the away trips, the craic with mates, even when the football was dire I used to enjoy the craic.

Over the years others drifted away and now there's basically two out of what used to be a group of 15 plus who stood together on the North bank and with so many pubs shut and getting to the game (life often gets in the way) it's just not fun anymore. Then, I enjoyed it more after dropping back out of the EPL, in fact it was the Premier league that started turning me off football, far from being a glory hunter I prefer life in the Championship.

if you're not enjoying something anymore what are you supposed to do? personally I'm looking for something else to enjoy. I even missed a large chunk of todays game choosing to walk the dog rather than watch on tv.

Sorry, I just don’t understand that mindset.
Isn’t your son a teenager who wants to go?
You had the chance as a kid to go to games by the sound of it, somwhy spoil his fun?

He didn't want to go today, he has discovered girls see and today his girlfriend came to ur houseand was here all day. Without him I really wasn't interested. If he wants to go next game I will.

He is also more interested in playing than watching. I won't renew our seasons but we'll buy tickets as and when next season. On the bright side, the club will make more money from us that way.
Then next year he'll be able to go with his mates anyway, he's old enough then.

To be honest I'd rather save the money and do more travelling. There's lots in Asia to see while I'm young enough.

You must be interested or you wouldn’t spend a lot of time on a Swansea City message board

I understand the apathy, I understand people’s interests change and I understand people who used to go all the time picking and choosing. I’ve picked up and dropped interests over the years.

I was more referring to the ‘I won’t put another penny into the club while these owners are here’ or ‘while Martin/Duff/etc is the manager’ crowd, who aren’t there on principle, but you know will be as soon as we go on a run. They seem to be getting more prominent on sites like this and social media.

Yeah I agree with that, even in the Premier league there were people who had seasons and turned up for the big clubs but sold their seats for the likes of Bournemouth and Watford.

These are the people who didnt renew when we dropped down a division, these are the plastic glory hunters who are there more to watch the big 6 than the Swans. My mate was telling me that he watched an away game (sure he said Liverpool) in a pub in Neath one day and people he knew to be Swans fans and season ticket holders were there in their red shirts and cheering when Liverpool scored, that is what all smaller clubs are battling with, even their own fanbase has people who'd rather be known as Liverpool, manyoo etc than Swansea fans even when they have ST's down here.

Saying all that I did also say I wouldn't give these owners any more money unless they changed their ways. Maybe if Williams turns us into a martinez style team I'll be more interested because those games were nearly always fun, aways goals at both ends, lets call it swashbuckling eh
