I'll just remind you of how this question first came up.. See.. No mention of British in relation to TV and he even says this year and not this season.. Its not rocket science is it...
He already told you 'British TV' jeez how many more times do you need to be told? And yes, obviously this season
I would absolutely not say anything rude or insulting towards any of you And if she is a Leeds fan, then that is just an added bonus <biggrin> [/QUOTE] Good, good NLF think I've had to have my claws out enough today Oh yes, Leeds fan born and bred!
I can't see why you're having such trouble understanding, let me spell it out for you a little more clearly: Leeds have been shown live this season in all the games mentioned by Leeds 18, on British TV, I.e. SKY & BBC. Please take your time to digest said information as I realise you may be a littlle slow on the uptake
lower league leeds on tv in uk... eastenders is on tV in the uk to....so whats the big deal... we get watched by millions all over the world because as you havn't guessed we are a premiership club...its no big deal...
Since you think the lower leagues are so funny, aren't you laughing at your entire history bar one and a half seasons? Have some perspective. The big deal is that we're probably the third or fourth most televized club in the country. Obviously these things are selected on the basis of A) TV audiences and B) entertainment, so to know we have an entertaining team who are exposed to our large nationwide fanbase is reassuring for us while we play in the (you guessed it) second division. And yeah, it's pretty funny that we still get shown more than nearly every top flight club. Like Leeds games, Eastenders is shown because it's an audience-puller. Not sure what your point is. That we attract downmarket armchair fans? I'd like to see all these countries that are selecting Swansea games left, right and centre for coverage to be honest. And yeah, you've mentioned you're a top flight club. Whenever I read one of your threads, that's all your fans seem to be saying. It's like you constantly have to reassure yourselves of the fact because you're so insecure being a small fish in a big pond. Relax a bit.
I have watched every Swans game this season live on the box (Sky), and one thing I do know is that every Leeds game has not been covered, this subject is a none starter!................... please log in to view this image
Firstly plastic. Secondly, Sky didn't actually broadcast those on one of their accessible channels, did they? I.e. they didn't deem them important enough (viewing figures too low, excitement levels too low) to actually air on SS 1, 2, 3 or 4. How many times have you genuinely been televized this season? I've asked already but you all seem very recitent to answer.
The Swans are seen by millions in pubs, all over wales, with a good pint of beer, can't fault it, top European style football, from our very own Swansalona!! one day you might get to see your team play as good as the Swans, but for now you can dream, or reminisce, if your old enough!.................
Yeah you can. 700% better at the game. Yeah, except without Barca's end product. Even our youngest fans can reminisce about being in Europe. Can any Swansea fans? NB: Welsh international games don't count.
Going back to the original post - what is there to do in Swansea and the surrounding areas that would appeal to young professional footballers? Nightclubs - Yes Chicks - Yes Casinos - yes Fine Dining - yes Fantastic Coastline - yes Easy Lifestyle - yes Cheap Housing - yes Great Supporters - Yes Fantastic Coaching - Yes New Stadium - Yes First Team football - Yes A Chance to be a Legend - Yes What can Leeds offer?
Better nightclubs, better chicks, better dining, better scenery just north of our city, coasts within 90 minutes' drive to either side, easy and enjoyable lifestyle in areas like Ilkley, Harrogate and York, the best away support in the country (possibly the world), a legendary stadium which generates a superb atmosphere for the games which really mean something, first team football, a chance to be a legend for an even more meaningful and historic club. The only things we can't offer (thanks to Bates) are top-flight football and high wages, and that's what the footballers ultimately look for. Let's be honest, they don't give a toss about the Yorkshire Dales and the Gower Peninsula. So yeah, you probably do win overall. Not that it's a victory to be proud of.
That's a bit harsh. Anyway, we all know that Leeds are a massive club and it is a matter of time that they will be back in the Premiership - but it won't be this season due to your defence. For now the Swans are in the Premiership so if Andrews wants to progress there is only one place for him to go
