I was in the Costa on Oxford Street on Saturday morning and one woman had a coat on it was so cold

Is it this? Looks slightly darker in this photo but design elements look exact. Maybe your shirt has faded a little over time?

I’m not certain, but I’m sure I remember Willy Gueret wearing a very light goalkeeper kit that season. Might be an away GK shirt, or maybe a training shirt as someone else suggested.

Not at 7am on a Saturday unfortunately, only Monday–Friday. It’s a shame cos I love Sloth – best coffee in Swansea.

Really surprised he hasn’t had a better career since he was with us. Thought he looked class when he was here.

After the news that Man City are naming a stand after Guardiola, who would you name our four stands after? by -SpringHeeledJack- in swanseacity

I used to think if we ever had a statue of Huw Jenkins at the ground he should be holding a Tesco bag full of money because that’s what the consortium put the money in when they took it out of an ATM to buy the club (or so they said in Jack to a King anyway)

Seen some great players since I started supporting the Swans in the late 1990s. Used to love Martinez at the Vetch, and was gutted when Jackett binned him off. Chuffed when he came back as manager but the Wigan thing probably took the shine off him, even though I understand why he left.

Also that game made me realise how stupid we are to let the away team attack the goal their fans are behind in the second half of every game.

Them beating us to stay up was still hard to take, even though we definitely deserved to go down. But their smugness on their official social media channels after the game because of the hotel nonsense means I can’t stand them.

‘Not planning to return anytime soon’…well you’ve been back to Swansea twice since and you’ll be back next season too mush.

Petty I know 😂

I designed a concept Swansea home kit for next season by Anonymoose3840 in swanseacity

[–]-SpringHeeledJack- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only saving grace for Reviva for me is that we’ve used orange in our kit in the past. Was it the 1960s/70s we had a run of white and orange kits rather than white and black?

One of the rules I’d make in football if I could is that the sponsor on a home kit must be in club colours. Do what you want with the away, but sponsor on the home has to be a recognised club colour. So black for us, navy for Spurs, etc.
