Just over a year ago this writer pronounced: “Another testing encounter for our young U21s, this time Merthyr Town provided too strong an opposition and took a 4-1 victory. On the balance of play this felt a slightly harsh result, although Merthyr took their chances well and were deserving winners on the night.” Change the …
Every summer brings a refresh of the rulebook, and this year’s update is a substantial one. Ahead of the 2026/27 season, match officials across the Championship – and the rest of English professional football – have been given a clear mandate: keep games moving, cut out the gamesmanship, and apply a more consistent standard to …
Our U21s snatched a 4-4 draw at Briton Ferry Llansawel in a friendly at the Old Road today. No teamsheet, a fairly low turnout and we were blessed with a comedy announcer, so not much in the way of information supporting today’s midday friendly. It was an unusual but entertaining match. U-21s Coach Anthony Wright …
Our U21s edged a 2-1 victory this evening in a friendly at Trefelin’s Ynys Park. It was a competitive game in the usual welcoming atmosphere and in great scenic surroundings at Port Talbot. Newly promoted to the Cymru Premier, Trefelin have adapted some of the immediate infrastructure – there’s now a proper turnstile – and …
Our U18 team kicked off its opening publicised friendly today in the sweltering heat at Stebonheath. Our youngsters faced a Llanelli side full of new faces after a relegation to Cymru South and the loss of most of last season’s squad. Terry Boyle remains in charge of the Reds. We featured some familiar players from …
What started as a casual kickabout among Swansea City fans has transformed into something meaningful – something bigger than football. On Tuesday, 26 May, the Swansea.com Stadium plays host to a charity match that captures everything the Swansea City family is about: community, compassion, and a shared sense of purpose. Two teams of supporters, united …
Championship clubs, including Swansea City, have voted to overhaul the division’s financial regulations, approving a new Squad Cost Rules (SCR) framework that will consign the much-maligned Profitability and Sustainability – or P&S – rules to the history books from the 2026/27 season onwards. It’s a significant moment for the second tier, and frankly, one that’s …
What a way to end a season. Zan Vipotnik, who has been nothing short of a revelation at the Liberty Stadium this campaign, has been named joint winner of the inaugural Sky Bet EFL Red Boot – awarded to the leading goalscorer across all three divisions of the English Football League – after finishing the …
A thoroughly deserved win this evening at the main stadium for a gritty display against a Cat 1 Newcastle side that had classy performers but little cutting edge. Coach Anthony Wright was able to select a strong line-up and a decent bench. Newcastle were led by ex-Middlesbrough player Robbie Stockdale, who’s had a lengthy and …
Our U18 team’s final home match of this season proved to be a disappointing affair. There was no teamsheet (again) and the tannoy hasn’t worked since November, but that’s OK, as there was no one present to do any announcements, anyway. The academy experience lately seems to be taking the form of an article of …
