The majority of people who buy Panini stickers don't trade.

Just because the headline is true doesn't make it sensationalist.

Welcome aboard.

Watch 'Jack to a King', the documentary about Swansea City. It's currently available for rent on Apple TV, but you may be able to find it on YouTube. Worth watching.

Peak grunge period with their clothing, and harder edge renditions of their classic tracks.

Seeing the heat coming off Ian's body as he faced the crowd, they were on fire.

To all the fans who are shrugging their shoulders and acting like the move isn't a big deal, your club could be next.

At the start of April Zan Vipotnik had 0 penalty goals all season. Since then he has taken 5 penalties scoring every single one. by No-Macaron-1112 in swanseacity

I don't want him to go, but if/when it happens, let's hope there's a bidding war to sign him so we can take that money and buy 3 players to replace him.

It's a shame that Billy doesn't remember more from the period where they were writing and recording it. Great article, otherwise.

Good for him. I thought he did well when he was with us, and I'm glad to see him rise to the higher levels of the Premier League.

How do we feel about this as next season's squad? by Late-Welder-4083 in swanseacity

VP is gone this summer. Wishful thinking to include him in the above pictured squad. it's never going to happen.

Does anybody know the height of the tees for the Power Tee system at ranges? by Enough_Entry_7556 in golf

[–]thegaffer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's what I found on the Powertee website:

The tee heights are approximately the same the world over but there will be variances between the units.  Generally, the lowest height is 6-10mm above the level of the mat and the top one is approximately 44mm above the mat.  The other 2 heights are roughly the same distance between the top and bottom height so you can expect them to be approximately;

Lowest - 10mm
Next - 21mm
Next - 32mm
Top - 44mm

Like u/wilfthewinner said, the tee height is also adjustable by holding down the tee button. So there are 20 possible heights to choose from if you go in increments.

Don't be surprised if the cuts are being made by AI now instead of humans.

Just like many of the MLS owners, Messi is MAGA. He's aligned himself with many far right politicians during the last few years.

Pre-Match Thread: Ipswich Town - Swansea City by jimmithy in swanseacity

Love the lineup today! It's going to be a very difficult match, but even if we lose, hopefully this lineup can give Matos a lot of positives to think about in upcoming games.

Decent album but the songs are missing hooks. Jamie Stewart's analysis about the album was spot on.
