I was living in Swansea during the Petty years and went with a couple of mates on one of the Petty Out marches (OK I was there to have a pint in reality but I was there) so excuse me while I say feck 'em. Their fans in the vast majority have looked down on us and the crap about how well they have been run compared to us joke club in 'legoland' stadium (nope me neither!), the rebrand was a sense of hilarity to them whilst it ripped us apart . Jenkins always used to look down on us from that huge nose of his whilst they shot themselves in the foot sacking Laudrup and caused their own demise by spending 10s of millions on utter garbage whilst banging on about how much better run they were than us.

So forgive me while I chuckle at their fans and owners having a go at each other at 'everybodys second club'. I hope they feck off back to where they belong back in League 2 playing those other chip on their shoulder tw@ts Newport County
