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.

Some good stuff played. Stupid stupid mistake first goal mostly by wood. Too many subs and we lost control of the game.
How are people crying about that game 😂 it's a cup game lots of youth in the pitch and let's be honest their goals were shocking.
We move on to the next one. Once we get a win it'll be a massive boost
💩
Benda has to be one of the worst goalies I’ve ever seen. Oh well though, means nothing
benda should've saved that pen, youth are doing some ridiculous things on the pitch (backpass from 25 yards away), need to stop this sloppiness and play football. Don't wanna see Grimes in the XI or bench next game; he is the reason we are losing, really poor performances these last few weeks.
Good thing we completed 1000 passes!
Pathetic, we are gasping for players.
Good stuff but we fucking lost man
Geez, that was hard to watch. Back pass from there? SMH.
What is with the audio?
Unlucky to lose that, two freak goals. Youngsters looked good and giving Martin headache.. onto Blackpool ⚫⚪
russel out
What a shower of shit Swansea have become. We could be 5-0 up in the 80th minute and lose. We'll be in League 1 next season. So frustrating I've given up watching them. I would rather hammer rusty nails into my bollocks than watch that useless bunch of mugs!
who was responsible for the back pass to Benda?
Russell Out! Owners Out!
Russel Martin is shite all he never changes how we play so it’s dead obvious what where gonna do and our defence doesn’t need any explaining
The 2nd goal isnt a fluke at all. The freekick comes from our inability to clear our lines when put under pressure. I counted 6 times where we could have potentially hacked it away. Its poor dead ball setups. Same problem as last season eg Bournemouth home, Reading away
1st half was decent then when the less experienced players came on went awful but that's expected bounce back against Blackpool
Russell Martin OUT.
Good lets go pl
These have to be the worst commentators in football
Hi
Start Cullen
Two decent goals for us but……
Taking the good where I can on this one… good on Jay and Liam. I've given them both a hard time for some absolute head-scratchers in the last couple years, but they showed real confidence in their play in this one.
BBC Cardiff loved that didn't they …
Come on you Yellows.
Followed the Us from the early 60s was at their ground every other week in the 70s
Now live in the States
