The difference between them and us?

Re: The difference between them and us?

The other obvious reason is that they don't have any other rivals, other than perhaps Llanelli and Carmarthen on the other side of them, and they will never play them, we have had rivalries with Bristol City, Bristol Rovers, and Newport County in my lifetime, so it's very different really. They only hate us, we hate loads of teams.

I think all this business about funding is bollocks. I've never spoken to a single Swansea City fan who thinks along those lines. Indeed, I've never met a single Swansea fan who hates the city of Cardiff, but plenty can't stand Cardiff City.

The sporting rivalries may be a factor, but the truth is the so-called rivalry between Cardiff and Newport lasted a couple of seasons in the Eighties when crowds were tiny, a rivalry with Bristol Rovers is fiction, while the rivalry with Bristol City has significantly diminished since the Seventies - Swansea have consistently been far bigger rivals since the Eighties. Indeed, the Bristol City game has rarely attracted an above-average crowd during the last couple of decades, while any game against Swansea normally attracts the biggest crowd of the season.
