    Musty, as you're near Asia you could look at which of the Asian airlines are doing special flight/match deals. Man U and Liverpool have big support over there and there are often good deals available. Can't remember which airline, but one of them had around 100 tickets for Man U v Swans last season. They only do select matches, so maybe it won't be Swans this time. But worth checking if you want to go to one of the bigger matches.

    Msuty - also check out Thomas Cook. They haven't got a Swans page but they have tickets for some Swans away matches. But the tickets will be for the home team, not the Swans end. At the moment they have...

    Arsenal v Swans 1 Dec GBP129
    Liverpool vs Swans 31 Oct League Cup GBP69 - only 13 tickets left

    Might be a few others, as didn't have time to check them all.

    I think you have to book at least one night in a hotel as well, so it could gte a bit expensive.

    I see there's plenty of tickets left for the Wigan game.

    What's the chances of tickets being left for the Liverpool game guys?

    It should be addedd there are pubs that will definitley not welcome away fans, so stick to the pub by frankie and bennies, and enjoy your visit to our city.

    Also avoid Wind Street if you want to avoid getting into a fight. Some real nutters hang out there and away fans could get some real abuse. But depends which club they're from. Anyway, be careful in Swansea. Most fans will be fine, but the few nutters could spoil your weekend.

    That statement could include the locals never mind visitors , the pubs around the ground are fine just mind your ps & qs. I'm not aware of any problems around the ground before or after games ,if someone wants trouble then I'm sure some beaut will accomodate

    The pubs in wind street, they letting people in with football tops on nowadays ?? i remember them refusing entry to people wearing swans tops in the past....money grabbing ****s jumping on the prem band wagon!!

    If your a genuine footy fan then its like anywhere, 99% there will be no hassle anywhere, like everywhere else though you always tend to get one arsehole lurking somewhere, and that of course can taint the pub or the area of town your drinking in, i think thr swans fans are getting very use to away supporters milling around the stadium and town nowadays, ever since the move from the Vetch and promotions to higher divisions in fact.

    Show a bit of respect and you will have a great time, 99% of swans fans really like to talk to away supporters and give them a big welcome, the friendliest area will be around the stadium, you can also visit the Landore club which is about 300m away from the stadium, ive had a good crack with Newcastle supporters there in the past and you will have no hassle there what so ever :)
