Bale will get all of the attention but that game, that immense, oh so important victory, belongs to Ben Davies and Wayne Hennessy. Colossal 90 minutes from both of them 👊🏼👊🏼

Flynn Downes has served Swansea City with dignity and distinction from the moment he arrived to the moment he’s deservedly moved on to the Premier League. Very sad to see him go but wish him every success at his boyhood club 👊🏼

It was hard to accept when your cheating robbed Swansea City of a deserved FA Cup semi final place. No wonder you don’t like VAR - it threatens your constant successful diving. Glad you went out, it provides some cold comfort after you profited from cheating.
A heartbreaking result after all the hard work we've put in to get the qualification.. Really hard to accept but we can still be proud of what we showed, how you guys supported us and how our hearts beat as one for this club.

For anyone lauding Jenkins as a hero for standing down just remember this: if he and his sell out crew had kept their voting rights instead of selling them to the Yanks, Jenkins could have teamed up with the Trust to curb their excesses without the need to stand down

We made three signings before and now three more signings since Martin’s arrival. Oh, and Grimes is still here. I maintain that Cooper bailed out of cowardice, terrified HIS side would struggle this term and therefore reduce his reputation. Didn’t have the guts to back himself.

If you purport to be a Swans fan then you should like this post. Every single Swans fan, young or old, owes a significant debt of thanks to Mel Nurse, without whom Swansea City Football Club wouldn’t exist. Like the post and show Mel the love 🖤🤍
Happy 86th birthday to Swans legend, Mel Nurse! 🎉
Mel had two spells at the club, winning the Welsh Cup in 1961 and earning promotion in 1970. He helped save the club in 2002. 🖤🤍
