Swansea City Association Football Club is a Welsh professional football club based in the city of Swansea, South Wales that plays in the Championship. Swansea City represents England when playing in European competitions, although they have represented Wales in the past. They play their home matches at the Liberty Stadium.
The club was founded in 1912 as Swansea Town and joined the Football League in 1921. The club changed their name in 1969, when it adopted the name Swansea City to reflect Swansea’s new status as a city.
In 1981, the club were promoted to the original Football League First Division. It was during the following season they came close to winning the league title, but a decline then set near the season’s end before finishing sixth, although a club record. It was from here the club suffered a relegation the season after, returning to the Football League Fourth Division a few seasons later, then narrowly avoided relegation to the Football Conference in 2003. Prior to playing home matches at the Liberty Stadium, the team had previously hosted at the Vetch Field. The Swansea City Supporters Society Ltd owns 20% of the club, with their involvement hailed by Supporters Direct as “the most high profile example of the involvement of a supporters’ trust in the direct running of a club”.
In 2011, Swansea were promoted to the English Premier League, becoming the first Welsh team to play in the top division since its formation in 1992. On 24 February 2013, Swansea beat Bradford City 5-0 to win the 2012-13 Football League Cup (the competition’s highest ever winning margin for the final), winning the first major English trophy in the club’s history and qualifying for the 2013-14 UEFA Europa League.

Uppa Swans
Absolutely fantastic day
That was a def pen,Cardiff should have been down to nine men.
And to think Cardiff fans don’t think it was a red card 🤣
Wyndham….dear god.
shocking decision with that handball. its like referees don't like coming to wales
I love Oliver Cooper he’s amazing
CAN'T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME CARDIFF WON A DERBY AGAINST SWANSEA OR BRISTOL
it's about time this shower got relegated, there are only so many beatings those Jacks can give them
To be honest. Dont shove. Dont get a ball to the noggin
Fucking love it swim away bluebird twats 😂 and to think they didn't think the handball was a penalty is laughable
objectively, the way this mostly fresh cardiff side got so insanely aggressive during a fixture most of them haven't played before speaks volumes about how they're trained. players with talent? moreso in a pinky than i do in my whole body. but jesus their mentality is egregious. that comes from the training ground and higher up.
Wyndham Evans commentary! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am tired of the announcer screaming at the top of his voice when commenting.
What a Performance !!
Callum Robinson silly boy. Cardiff may never beat us again 🤣🤣🤣
Honestly there's old boys down the pub with more insight and restraint than Wyndham Evans
WHAT A PRETTY SHITTY CITY THAT ALL I CAN SAY (UPPA SWANS)
The gulf in class between the Swans and Cardiff is quite obvious. Cardiff on a downward spiral, the Jacks on an upward trajectory. Before you know it Cardiff will be back competing against the likes of Newport and Wrexham, if they carry on like this.
Cardiff get bartered every where they go😂
