Oli McBurnie: Why he is liked.... 20:08 - Jan 13 with 7976 viewsThrasher6

Oli McBurnie has been one of the greats for us. His record is second to none...non negotiable. But like many others (who I will list) he transcends an ordinary player into something different. Mostly it's a character thing....these guys are interesting...engaging...and they buy into our club. We like that...they are one of us:
Here's a list I will start but feel free to add..
Oli McBurnie
Angel Rangel
Chico
Leon Britton
Lee Trundle
Andy Robinson
Martinez....?

Look I have missed a lot...but over to you...

I want a mate like Flashberryjacks, who wears a Barnsley jersey with "Swans are my second team" on the back.

And I'd take Martinez and Robbo off the list.

Sort of get where you are coming from with Martinez...but Robbo always bought into us..he lives around here

Until he waited to see if Leeds got promoted before deciding to hang around or not?

There were quite a few in the Eighties and Nineties...who stayed here...but never really got that legendary status

You only have to see how many players join us from other clubs and decide to live in Swansea after they retire.

Jimmy Rimmer for starters

Roger Freestone qualifies. Born in Caerfilthy...potentially the 'other side' made good...

They didn’t get promoted though, which was hilarious.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

I remember wanting them....and Leeds to fail...because they had the gaul to leave us. It was football...and not really great money in todays nonsense values. But it was just like a spurned lover...you would still take them back
(Robbo and Trundle going to Leeds btw)

I worked with Herbie, a true gentleman and he could write a book with his memories of his playing days!

Still looks the same now as when he was in his thirties 😎
