    Once they sign Gareth Bale this summer, there won't be any problem doubling season ticket sales.

    I have that dream everynight. Gareth comes back to South Wales and tells the media how much he hates Cardiff and can only see himself in a Swans shirt.

    It's pretty much the same uni as Real.

    New sponsor is BetEast and they have a normal horizontal text logo in blue and white lol

    I don't like gambling sponsors. It just seems so gauche. The logo looks fairly benign on it's own. Hopefully, it stays that way when it's on the shirts.

    I don't mind the gambling just wish it was a better sponsor though.

    New Kits are released tomorrow! Training kits are dark purple for the senior team, different colors for youth.

    It's just odd coming from the US where all the major leagues try to distance themselves from gambling as much as possible.

    My first thought is that they look really good to me. I would have preferred the East on the home to be in black.

    Clean kit though.

    Of course some are moaning that we are wearing blue. Not like it's even Cardiff blue. Lol

    I like the aways. There are always going to be fans that complain when blue is used, but it has been in the past and just based on the shade of blue, it may have been a requirement of the sponsorship deal. I wish the home had more black in them. Maybe in the cuffs or collar.

    How's the quality? Look as good in person as pictures? I haven't ordered mine yet due to some upcoming trips but will do so in July or August once I get an idea in who's staying and going.

    Did you get a player or just blank?

    Also I've never got a global Swans thing with my orders haha. I think American marketing is about to be unbelievably big.

    Maybe new SCFC TMB posters. Oh boy.

    Just blank. It feels pretty good. There is no Premier League patch like there was on the image I clicked on on the website though. It feels a little tighter through the chest and arms than last year's too.
    Yeah the fancy boxing was new this year. Previous deliveries were just in a plastic bag.

    Thanks man . Most people have started advising to go up a size from last year or use the size you wore a couple years so with the addidas stretch ones.

    That sucks though about thinking you had the order with patches and then no patches.

    Yeah, I didn't realize that it was tucked away under the personalization option. I didn't bother clicking on that because I didn't want to put a name and number on the jersey. Oh well. Generally it feels like you would probably want a jersey to feel if you were actually playing and less like a casual t-shirt you might otherwise want to wear around town - noticeably more snug, but not uncomfortable.

    So Paloschi is supposedly sold to Atalanta for 6mil. I actually liked him even though he struggled mightily. I also think I liked him more after seeing his work rate compared to lazy Bafe.

    Yeah, he worked hard when he was in there and knew how to stay onside. Guidolin favoring the diamond formation really killed his and Montero's opportunities , though.

    If we get Bony back, it's all good up front.

    So Paloschi is officially gone. The talk online seems to be that Gomis will end up staying and that the club has decided it can't afford Wilfs wages. So the transfer period should start off with a lot of nothing on July 1st.

    I would rather have Paloschi than Gomis. Oh well. I don't have to cut the checks, so my opinion doesn't matter.

    Signed center back Mike van der Hoorn from Ajax. Tall and young. Two things the club need some more of.

    Pretty underwhelming signing for me but hopefully he will be better than his lack of playing time. Still young though.

    So Van de Hoorn is going to be official this week with the Fer signing it seems. Pretty weak signings and not sure they really strengthen us anywhere compared to what other clubs are doing.

    Is he any good? I know Monk really likes Bartley so I'm happy about that pick up but haven't really heard much on Grimes.

    Really excited about Grimes and his future. He is an English youth international and played very well for Exeter. I think he will do well for Leeds in the midfield.

    Btw FactsRule Bafe, Tabanou and Emnes were all left off the pre season travel roster. Guessing they all three get sold pretty soon.

    Rumor is Marseille have agreed to terms with Swansea for the striker.

    Bartley can have some mental lapses, but I really like his promise. Grimes just needs to get on the field more. Hopefully that happens at Leeds.

    Eder scores what is almost certainly the goal to win Euro 2016. Firing Monk seems like a better decision today.

    Gets a chance at Lille and scores goals, gets one opportunity in the Euro Final and scores a cracker.

    So this Williams to Everton thing seems to actually be happening and at what appears to be a bargain basement price of £10 million in this offseason. I do not care for this development at all.
