    Coming down the hill into Llansamlet from the M4, there's a junction at the lights. The street there at the right is called Gwernllwynchwyth. That's such a pretty name huh ?

    That is not entirely accurate, the management company is a joint venture between the two clubs and the council. It is not 100% council. It will also be significantly owned by the Swans after the expansion as will the stadium itself.

    There might be a good reason for that. Liberty may not be a permanent name and those road signs are very, very expensive because of the reflective coating used. It can cost upto £30,000 for the bigger ones. So how much of the money coming in from sponsorship would be eaten up by changing the signs? Probably all of it.

    Anyhow, I think the wishes of the Swansea population should be listened to. We voted for DAVE remember?

    you will find that's wrong...stadco runs the stadium for the county of Swansea which represents all the SA post code areas...we are nothing more than tenants the same as everyone else who uses the liberty...

    That's wrong as most of the SA postcodes are not in the Swansea area, SA12 up to SA72 I believe are in other counties. Stadco is owned by the 3 interested parties equally, that is why the losses they have incurred has been paid by the Swans only! The council or Ospreys have not contributed at all.

    Stop messing around Jager. I know we all like a lark but trying to get Musty/overseas friends etc believing there is a place in Wales called Lower Cwmtwrch is just shocking. Next you will be trying to say there is an Upper Cwmtwrch.

    Mythical home of the famous "fart water" spring... the elixir of life. Enough, you will have visitors to these boards believing these places/things exist.
