Swansea City A.F.C. | Club History

Спорт

We discuss some of Swansea City Association Football Club's history in this video. We begin with the club's location, home ground, and founding story. We then discuss the club's nicknames, crest, and important events. And we close with discussing noteworthy players, managers, and stats/records.
The video is not all-encompassing but it hopefully provides some interesting information about Swansea City A.F.C.

    Hey Jonathan! Happy to hear you’re enjoying the channel. Thanks for the kind comments. We have some new vids coming soon, but they’re gonna be smaller, amateur clubs in US & UK. And we’ll have Bundesliga vids coming in November.

    Hey! Thanks so much for still watching and commenting. I still follow these comments and always appreciate the support. My life circumstances changed quite a bit these last few years. I hope to make these videos again sometime in the future, but not sure when. Each video is somewhere between 12-20 hours of work for me and I’m a one man operation right now. Unfortunately, I don’t have that kind of time right now but hope that changes sometime soon. Thanks again! 🍻

    Good knowledge, you need more animations though as it feels like a lecture a little bit. F.e when you spoke about major events you could have got images of Tony Petty, the team we won 5-0 with against Bradford. You put the effort in with the knowledge and it was excellent work a little more editing would have made this outstanding. Subscribed

    I’m taking a break from the channel for awhile. Hope to be back in the future and I’ll try to make more vids of Swansea. I have quite a few other requests and some clubs I haven’t made any videos for yet. I’ll still try to do another Swansea video at some point in the future. Anything specific you’d like to watch? 🍻

    Also would say that Stoke isn't our rivals at all and we don't have one in the premier league. We sold Gylfi Sigurdsson to Everton for 45 million so that overtook Wilfried Bony to Man city

    Thanks for these additional details. I knew Stoke was going to be a reach but decided to include it in the video. And I knew about Sigurdsson, it just slipped under my radar when I was writing the script. Disappointed I missed that one.... In all likelihood, the way the transfer market is moving, I'm sure that record will be broken in the not too distant future. Thanks again for taking the time to leave comments.

    Stumbled upon this vid and loved it. The story behind the black Labbi is achually true but it's not the reason why we called Swansea Jack's. The story bout the boys in the Navey is the reason we are called the Jack's. Hence the Jack Army.
