Blue Birds Blue Birds

Cheers Big Bri, great to see him doing well. Benitez rarely brings loaned players back, so you may well get him permanantly. If not, at least he's getting competitive games every week, which is what its all about. It will be a shame if we let him go. We are just not producing enough from our youth academy over recent years. Well, I say recent, the last player to make it through the youth system permanantly was Steven Gerard. Warnock came through, but got sold. Heighway got replaced this year because we simply are'nt producing enough home grown players. Saying that, Benitez rarely plays them anyway! I would much rather a home grown player givingg you 100% than a mediocre foreign player bought for a couple of million. Unfortunately, thats the way it seems to be these days. Mind you, I cant fault Benitez at the moment, he may just allow me to attend my 3rd European Cup final in four years. Im not counting my chickens yet though, its gonna be tough getting there again.

Isnt the Barnsley manager a Jack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Rolli

A quote shows how he started in football and where is heart is:-

In 1987, Davey was a teenager preparing for O-levels in school in his home town of Swansea when the head teacher came into the classroom and said, 'Terry Yorath has just called. He is asking if Simon can be excused and pop down to the Vetch'. Davey went straight down to Swansea City’s ground, Vetch Field, in school uniform. Yorath informed him that he was short of players and would like to name him as a substitute for Saturday’s game against Torquay United. Davey made his debut during the second half of that game and went on to make 58 appearances, scoring 5 goals in 4 years, as a midfielder with the Swans.

Tony I hear your number was second on his list:winker:

Once a Jack always a Jack!!!!!

Come on Barnsley:yes:

From Bri

Well Well, dont it come back to hit you, the mighty jacks lost again oh and Barnsley, must be getting close with all them points you are dropping.

Every team goes through a rough patch ,you blueturds should know that you have been through a few bad patches this season im still confident that we will go up this season :tongue:

Well what can i say the JACKS bounce back with a 2-0 away win against bristol rovers chooo choo back on the promotion train destination the championship and onion park:biglaugh:

Must say Tony good result last night but why did the jacks have to smear the good name of football again I quote:

A 38-year-old man from Swansea was arrested at the Memorial Stadium after a report of an assault on a 26-year-old Bristol man following the Coca-Cola League one fixture between Bristol Rovers and Swansea City," said a spokesman.

"The incident took place in the tunnel following the game. The arrested man was released on police bail, pending further enquiries.

You should be ashamed of your team??????

He must have slagged off the regiment / team:biglaugh:

Lets not talk about mis behaving ,blueturds have the worse reputation going any way like trav said he was probably slagging off the regiment so a good back hander was in order:yes:UP THE JACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COME ON BBBBBBBBBBBBAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRNNNNNSSSSSSLLLEEEEEEEY YYYYYY!!!!!!!!:winker:

good name of football ???/ when did they buy that and for that matter who else bought it

who do you think you`re kidding mister risdale if you think we`re on the run
we are the swans who play in black and white we are the swans who will
always stand and fight so who do you think you`re kidding mister risdale if you think
the swans are done :tongue:

that`s why we`re top of the league:winker:

Hello All

Great to see the jacks get back on track as some would say:cute: the jack train needs no track and will motor through this div to reintroduce what we've all been waiting for, the good old Derby's (not this Bristol Derby thing :arghh:) the real DERBY with the Blue T**ds and to beat them both home and away (which has not been done by either side in history).:tongue:

There also is another issue in the media at the moment and that is the Leighton James

WELSH soccer legend Leighton James has kicked up a potential storm by stating he wants Barnsley to beat Cardiff City in the FA Cup.

The TV pundit made his remarks in his column for a local newspaper.

Although James was writing for an audience of Swans’ fans, such comments from a high-profile football character are hardly likely to endear him to other soccer followers.

James, left, argued that if Roberto Martinez’s side were in the last four, Cardiff supporters would want the Swans to lose.

“It's a difficult one to choose,” wrote James. “On one hand, as a proud Welshman, you want the clubs from your country to go as far as they can"

“On the other hand, as a Swansea person, you want Tykes boss Simon Davey – who is a Swansea person – to do well too.

“We always want to see our hometown products doing well, and I’m sure the people of Swansea will want him to reach the final.

“To see Cardiff in the final would be hard to take for Swansea fans.

“So, to be brutally honest, I think I’m behind Barnsley on this one.”



situation with supporting Barnsley. There's no problem with that is there! Look at the choice Barnsley or Blue T**ds Say no more:biglaugh:

From the happy Bri JACK ARMY:biglaugh:

P.S. Lets not fool ourselves get behind Leighton James and Barnsley:cool:

well ive always said u jacks have got 90% english blood in you, and well shouting for barnsly goes to proove it, sit on the fence is to hard for you guys, u cant except there is only 1 capitol and 1 football team, u can only dream of an FAC semi. So carry on dreaming jacks

Remember when Barnsley played the JACKS in the play offs last season i didnt see any BLUETURD supporting the SWANS so just call it pay back :tongue:so as i said before come on BBBBBAAAAARRRRRNNNNNSSSSLLLLEEEEEYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!! !!!:biglaugh:

Did you play in a play off??:SLEEP:, god you were lucky yesterday nearly stuffed by Brizzzzzzzzzol Rovers, and there was the mighty Bluebirds beating the better half of brizzzzzol on Saturday, you Jacks are a joke, really hope you do come up, we only wish we could play you every week. Remeber to tune in a week Sunday, I will post a photo of my ticket on here because its the closest you will ever get to seeing one, oh and by the way Administration my a*&e

Were the famous CARDIFF CITY and we are going to Wembely Again ha ha:tongue:

be fair benny what a game my boy thought it was premiership football or better and he plays football and being from newport i aint biased i say best of luck to cardiff in the f.a cup and best of luck to the jacks , on that form i cant see a problem (arsenal may want jason scotland the way they are going )

Well watching the highlights on saturday i think bristol city were robbed there goal was never off side:winker: and the blue turds got lucky with the penalty follow up(fair do`s good follow up)and any way the JACKS had a slow start the other night and ripped bristol rovers apart second half but hey WE ARE STILL TOP OF THE LEAGUE i will admit we need a totally new defence cos thats our let down laurence (bamby on ice)is a night mare i cringe every time the ball goes to him,any way i would say good luck in the semi`s but i will be lying:biglaugh:but i do hope you have a good day out BENNY and look forward to the write up when you get back so come on BBBBAAAARRRNNNSSSLLLEEEYYY :tongue:

after watching this excellent thread for so long I as a proud North Walien come to the obvious observation that the Swans are simply jealous of a better team . The league ( irrespective of it´s standing ) is important BUT the FA cup is and will always be the battleground of divisions and although the WELCH have had little to celebrate over the past in English football history one thing cannot be taken away from us ! ALL Welch teams do thier best for thier teams and for thier Country WALES .l With Gods backing and good fortune ( and luck ) A WELCH team could again play in an English FA final and proove beyond doubt the Welch are good enough not only of playing World class Rugby but also Football . The swans have a team ready to pulverise anybody in the league above but Cardiff with the backing of every true born Welchman can achieve the ultimate quest to win the greatest prize in English football WE ARE A MINORITY but united together WE ARE WALES CYMRU AM BYDD There is no need whatsoever to be jealous or

Hey Rob
its not jealousy its what us south walians call "BANTA" you know having a bit of a laugh and ripping one another as good squaddies do past and present,at the end of the day cardiff have done well to get where they are but i cant see them winning the FA cup but who knows as greavsie says ITS A FUNNY OLD GAME and if and its a massive if cardiff do win it then i will give all my BLUE BIRD mates a good pat on the back and buy them a pint(will brealk my heart though)so at the end of the day its not being jealous its called having a laugh and a joke:tongue:so come on BBBBBBAAAAARRRRNNNNNSSSLLLLEEEYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!:twit cy:

hey tony il be first in the q for a pint off ya if they win m8, even if i have gotta fly home for it, o to see the distressed look on the jacks faces lol

This gives strength to the saying 'Closing the stable door after the horse has bolted'.:biggrin:

And another interesting link here:-

Also good luck to Leeds and Forest tomorrow.

Have to correct you there, the attendance you quoted was for a wales game, but of course you Jacks wouldent know that because you never attend any wales games?

Al is this the top thread ever on this site???

I remember travelling down from Ternhill with Griff 03 and a few others North South East and West Walians to watch Wales and Russia at the Vetch on the old Double Decker bank i know it was a long time ago but i have been the stadiums Liberty and millenium aswell and they are to big a venue for the crowd Wales get Benny i just got the pic of your ticket i hpe it was a free text i dont want you wasting any more money:biglaugh:enjoy the day anyway

hey benny i dunno about the top thread but it's the daftest , not much mention of wales only cup winners yet , the mighty ironsides . apologies just thought id add my two penny worth

You deserve it Dutch, what makes me mad is this comment from the Walabout pub in Cardiff, again football fans stuffed

"A spokesman for Walkabout pub on St Mary Street, Cardiff, said: “Like many of the other large bars in the City centre and in line with licensing agreements we cannot show Cardiff City’s televised matches.

“However, the Toulouse v Cardiff Blues Heineken Cup match will be on live in the venue.:mad:

We are not evan talking about awayfans being there and they still stuff us football fans.

Would this happen in Swansea or Liverpool?

Comments please.

Same problem in Swansea with Walkabout and a Swans game it must be a chain pub thing i think this goes back to a previous thread High Jinks / Performing = rugby / football fans

Dutch

Are you aware of this appointment?

From an official Newport County email circular.....

The club is pleased to announce that former welsh soccer legend and BBC TV pundit Leighton James has joined the club as chief executive.

Mr James who coached county back in the eighties and brings a wealth of experience to the club. Mr James is well respected in welsh football circles for his charisma and charm.

Everyone at Newport County would like to welcome Leighton to club.

What a legend, and he supports Barnsley.

Benny reference the 60,000 as an attendance you must be right as even with hammer fans you wouldn't be able to achieve that figure.:tongue:

From Bri JACK ARMY

Well what can i say the JACKS will be promoted this weekend if and when we beat bournmouth at home and doncaster lose so my hand are rubbing together ready for them DERBY days next season could be a double celebration JACKS promoted and BLUETURDS dumped out of the cup by BARNSLEY and there JACK manager so some on you JACKSSSSSSSSSSS AND COME ON YOU BBBBBAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRNNNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSLLLLLL EEEYYYY:arghh::biggrin:

Benny I dont think the Walkabout bar chain adopts the policy everywhere. i watched a Liverpool away game in Liverpool's Walkabout bar in the city centre, and that was away at Man ure!! This was about two seasons ago, but you can still watch Liverpool matches there.
