Washington Post on Swansea City and Bradley 01:44 - Oct 6 with 2925 views | Tummer_from_Texas | The closest thing we've got to a quality "national" newspaper (but I'm biased as my sister writes about politics for them) pretty much sums up the American perspective, and should confirm to you that your concerns are being noticed. (Advance Warning: "soccer" used so that American readers don't get confused.) https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/soccer-insider/wp/2016/10/05/bob-bradley-bla [Post edited 6 Oct 2016 2:02]

Washington Post on Swansea City and Bradley on 02:05 - Oct 6 with 2895 views | cockneyswan | Thanks for this tummer, interesting and pretty accurate account of the Swansea situation. It's interesting to see for me how the American press view the situation here. Can I ask how much interest there is in the USA about the Bradley appointment? | | | |

ESPN and others all talking about BB and what it means to America. Admitting that we are a country that is begging for validation from the UK is spot on, to be honest. I've had a couple friends who would have never heard of Swansea, except they know about my love for the club, pointing it out to me that we are a news story in the USA now. | |

Ok then, what else is? The New York Times is a New York paper with a degree of local focus. USA Today is a nationally-focused paper, but it's a long way from being quality anymore. | |

Washington Post on Swansea City and Bradley on 09:25 - Oct 6 with 2212 views | max936 | Good read that Tummer, there's obviously the view of what it can do for American Football, but obviously our only focus is on SCFC and the article recognises that in fairness, I do feel encouraged by what I've read about Bradley, all we can do is give him our best wishes and wish him luck, its not his fault that he's been thrust into this hostile position, the hostility from me is focus on Jenkins and the new controlling shareholders looking in from the outside it seems like they sense an opportunity to promote American football and make a huge name for themselves in America, a vanity project if you like. They'll soon find out that us Swansea City fans wont be treated like their puppets so they better get things right and then they can enjoy their success along with us, its a tough ask though, over to you Kaplan and Levien. | |

Hopefully we can play proper American MLS teams rather than east bumfcuk college for pre-season now | |

Except, Swansea hasn't played a college team. 2016 Richmond (USL - 3rd Division) Charlotte (USL - 3rd Division) 2015 - canceled - I blame Tummer 2014 Chivas (Mexican 1st Division) Minnesota United (NASL - 2nd Division) 2013 Utah or Colorado - Can't remember - (MLS) OC Blues (PDL - 4th Division) - Zardes impressed in that match. Perhaps, I missed a scrimmage? | | | |
Washington Post on Swansea City and Bradley on 06:29 - Oct 7 with 1543 views | nierika | That 2015 cancellation was really disappointing; I would have made a 10 hour drive down there! | | | |
