Fair play a good honest view. I might disagree and agree with some views doesn't mean we can't listen or discuss its how we learn or used to be. Zia Yusuf has certainly stood his ground on the biased question time interrogations from Fiona Bruce. I just can't relate to labour anymore sad but true. |

I'm convinced that atleast twice in first half on our right wing they ran the ball over the line no throw in for us. As soon as we close to the line flag up straight away. Minor thing that wound me up as sometimes weak decisions from officials cost us goals inconsistent judgement of free kicks and cards can change players mindsets slow down our tempo and disrupt momentum. Anyway this type of game used to slip away from us so still making progress. |

Vipotnik openly stated how missing pre season when he signed for us had a massive impact on his performances. There were Jimmy Gilliganesque flashes for me to think next season he will be a handful..... with little expectation he was fantastic so this season with the best window in years I'm thinking if he stays we got a serious chance of top 6. Then a niggly injury disrupts his pre season on top of all the media speculation. He just needs games for match fitness and sharpness thought he was looking much better at derby. Maybe serious offers haven't come in as teams know we got switched on owners and won't be mugged off anymore. Zan Vipotnik swansea number 9 |

I've always been proud of our history. You could argue Jenkins, tenko, dineen, morgan , van Sweden, Mel Nuse and the trust shaped our modern history by taking our club back and later dismissing cusack and hiring flynn who kept us in the league with James Thomas Tatey leon and Roberto also becoming legends retaining our league status so Trunds could join on a free. Trunds was good for the swans but the swans were good for trunds. He put a few thousand extra on the gate at the vetch every game, he entertained us lit up the vetch and had the best years of his career with us. The final game at the vetch v wrexham was FAW nonsense trophy Robbo becoming a legend with the last goal scored there. I don't see it as poetic as Kenny Jackett was manager then after replacing flynn towards the end of the previous season. Don't tell Ryan Reynolds about your theory of the great wrexham reset of 2002 as he will be on to Disney to reissue Jack to King how the dragons made the jacks Interested to hear your views on others hating our history on here . |

Couldn't agree more although much of that jizzfest was down to sky but didn't they just revel having those inflated egos massaged. I got no problem with thier lifelong diehards seeing them rise from non league to the championship and being proud of it as is a great achievement. But some of the newbys are completely deluded and seem so entitled with this destined for the premier league nonsense. Never been a derby I'd say newport county would be more of a Derby fixture. |

No problem mate I'm all for accuracy 👍 Could have and should have prevented the deal being signed off in my opinion given that the people that live there were totally opposed to thier home singed over to Mauritius (happy to be corrected if wrong) as the Chinese have significant control and influence over these tiny countries which is a potential security risk and the dismissive attitude of Lammy and starmer towards our global security terrified me and still does. Then new Chinese embassy granted planning almost in the grounds of Thames house again the Chinese benefit. They will be after Diego Garcia next. |

Superb. You would think a lesson might have been learnt I'm the 80s. Once the spineless and gutless chagos debacle took place you knew it would only be a matter of time before the argies would play up again and use the world cup for political purposes. Imagine if an england fan or player had a flag or t shirt with a slogan "harrier jump jet Kane " for example there would have been prison sentences, life bans etc so instead of fawning over them let's stand up and be counted. |

Convenient timing indeed just as starmer announced stepping down as an MP maybe something about to come out about the firebombing? Mandelshon? Grooming inquiry ? Seems like Alistair Campbell territory. Deflect and divert attention shows how worried they are. Farage seems to be constantly making headlines, no publicity is bad publicity attitude could be playing a dangerous game. Time will tell. |

Stable ? Dictatorships? Before 2003 people were still being murdered for speaking out freely especially in Syria and Iran. The kurds in iraq were attacked with chemical weapons by Sadam There is electricity in iraq every day the grid is poor so supply is limited. Billions spent since the war to improve the supply got trousered by corruption and reliance on fuel to power the grid from Iran. Infrastructure improvements were regularly destroyed by insurgents I wonder who benefits from such actions? Couldn't be Iran could it ? perhaps your iraqi friend can take some small solar power kits with him to help his parents. Strange that asad of Syria represented the Arab socialist party. |

Joining a motorway to deliberately enter the opposite carriageway is having blatant disregard for the safety of all road users in the vicinity. For me the police have a duty to protect and somehow warn oncoming traffic of the immediate danger to thier life. The pursuit drivers train for all scenarios. Imagine a 52 seater coach full of school children turns over avoiding some lunatic as no traffic cars had followed the police would then be blamed for not doing their job. They can't win.awful decision for someone having to make. These clowns drive like maniacs in built up areas because they know the police will stop the pursuit. They must continue to follow through built up areas otherwise there is no deterrent as towns and cities across the UK will become race tracks again like the joyriding days of the 80s and 90s. My heart goes out to you knowing you taken responsibility for such high pressure decisions . |

Just noticed this. Sad loss was a great servant and terrific one day bowler with his "cutters" towards the end of his career. Got an autographed bat from his benefit year somewhere. RIP and condolences to the family. |

Spot on was wondering when deliberate depravation of assets would appear or as I call it not doing what the govt want you to do with assets. Legal Advice essential also a probte expert for trusts and gifting beneficiaries, Gifting a charity can also help The state will look at mental capacity if all is OK a simple expression of wishes signed by solicitor and witnessed can also help with Gifting. If lasting power of attorney has been granted to family members who then start to make the changes then prepare for interrogation. I remember once being advised if you can demonstrate considerable hardship and how Benefitting from an estate could significantly impact hardship then this may also help. Awful situation. Sure there was allowance and pensions used to top up. All the best. |

Pretty sure population of Swansea has increased 0.6% City and county project an increase of just under 16,000 from 2022 to 2032. From 2021 census to mid 2024 ons data showed the figure has already increased by just under 13,000 in 3 years. 2024 population is only 3000 less that projected 2027 figure. Apparently these numbers settle down after initial surge. That makes it impossible to for adequate housing provision, GP surgeries hospitals, Schools, welfare system to cope with the well known budget constraints. Some tough times ahead for city and those that have decisions to make. |

FAO Resolven Your hopes for peace are shared by most. However humas will not simply stop fighting if a state is formed. They will have access to more funding from other nations foreign aid budgets and increased humanitarian aid which will not find its way to those that need it most. As a political party they have documented that the main aim other securing a free state is the extermination of another race. Hard to believe in this day and age that people don't find that appalling. The October massacres were timed to perfection as Saudi Arabia were apparently going to announce thier official recognition of the state of Israel which could well have changed the whole dynamic aimed at a lasting peace in the region. The population of Palestine is just under 5.7 million and increases by 2.36 % each year.This fact alone makes me struggle to understand the claims of mass genocide. Can I ask your views on humas not abiding by the human rights act ? Also can I ask what you think of how non heterosexual people are treated? [Post edited 28 Jul 1:07]
