Updates for next fixtures to come soon, still haven't played them!
 
I do. I have a feeling the swans would do ****, as I haven't signed many players and they normally do **** with no new players. I believe I would of done well with spurs, possibly getting champions league football and maybe winning the league in 2015?

However, I'm glad I stuck with my home town club, who I have supported since the age of 4 years :p

The swans clinch promotion to the PREMIER LEAGUE, and do it in style!

39188_479186896109_605131109_6552434_2456238_n.jpg


The swans have today made history, by making it to the premier league to face the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United by smashing Blackpool 5-1 on the last day of the season, a Iain Hume hatrick helped the swans to victory.

A 5-1 victory ensured the swans kept up their great form season, and have finally put an end to the heartbreak of missing out on the last day, by securing the last automatic place behind Nottm Forrest.

The swans cruised to victory against the seasiders, Blackpool and have now earned themselves a massive new challenge in arguably the best league in the world.

Swansea Boss, who has been recently praised for the effort for the swans has also been praised for his loyalty to the swans after turning down streams of jobs from big, high profile teams such as Tottenham, West Ham, Valencia and Middlesbrough.

The swans will now move onto bigger and better things, but the next task for Carter is to maintain their status in the top division.

Swansea Manager Set For Athletico Madrid?

39618_479192471109_605131109_6552516_6654651_n.jpg


Swansea City boss, Daniel Carter, has today got a tough desicion to make. He has been offered a 3 year contract at Spanish team, Athletico Madrid. Carter was intially offered 25,000 a week but asked for a rise to 30,500. This was granted. Carter admitted he didn't think he'd get the rise, but now faces a tough choice.

Keep on with the Jacks mate whatever the outcome:D Atleast this time when you won something you didnt have Trundle parading with a flag saying F*** Off Cardiff:'(
 
How in any way is Ath. Madrid's offer better than United's? Man Utd > Ath. Madrid.

But yeah, carry on, pleased to see you signed a new contract.

When I say it's better I ment transfer budget wise.

Swansea+City+v+Preston+North+End+08EkF0fFo6ll.jpg


Swansea have today made it 3 defeats in 3 after loosing to Tottenham, Everton And Liverpool in their opening fixtures of the premier league campaign.

After loosing today against Liverpool, the swans now sit bottom of the league with 0 points, the same as Aston Villa. The swans will be disappointed, but they know it's been a hard 3 games to play, never mind get any points.

The swans have yet to win a game, but have a good chance against Blackpool in their cup game on Saturday.

Swansea City September Updates

09F72F2C-C575-F575-46C21F5E92415030.jpg

A extremely poor month for Swansea meant they went through the whole of September without winning a single match and picking up no points.


The swans faced tough opposition during September and it was a tough task to get any victories, but I'm sure the Swans will still be disappointed. The only victory the swans had was their 5-0 smashing against Blackpool in the cup.

The swans will look now to hit the ground running into September, even just picking up a few wins or draws to help them stay up this year.

swansea_ap_1246298c.jpg


Swansea have today picked up their first points of the season, beating former champions Manchester United in brilliant fashion, 2-1 at The Liberty Stadium.

The swans took the lead after only 6 minutes through Nathan Dyer, who took on 3 defenders and placed it in the bottom corner. The swans kept plugging away, shutting United out for most of the game and a second goal came on half time, On-Loan midfielder Aaron Doran smashing the ball off the crossbar and into the net.

The Swans took a half time lead of 2-0, and had it all to do second half. They defended most of the game, and it was only until the 73rd minute when Rooney struck a consolation goal. A brilliant opening 3 points for the swans.

The swans were unable to keep up winning form in their next 2 games, loosing to Manchester City and Aston Villa. The swans still remain bottom of the league.


The swans have struggled in their next 2 games, after the quality of City and Villa was too strong for the newly-promoted Swans. Unfortunatley for the swans, they now still sit bottom of the league, with only 3 points.

Swans draw to Palace and Burnley

0,,10354~8055079,00.jpg


In a fiery match between Swans & Palace after Berbatov got sent off, the match ended in 1-1 draw with nothing separating the two teams.

The swans were down to 10 men in the 56th minute after Berbatov got sent off for a alleged elbow to Palace centre back Johannes Ertl. The swans however took the lead on 71 minutes, through David Goodwillie.

The swans worked hard with 10 men, but couldn't avoid a draw after Morgan equalised for Palace on 82 minutes. A draw seemed a fair result but harsh on the way Palace done it.

The swans also played host to Burnley, where they dominated from start to finish claiming a goal on 32 minutes through a brilliant Darren Pratley goal, which won goal of the month. The swans passed the ball around neatly, and caused problems for Burnley. However it was hard luck on Swansea after a undeserved goal from Steven Fletcher in the 88th minute claimed a draw.

Another good update, mate. You haven't had a great season compared to your epic Championship one (I understand, being an Albion fan :p), but you've done well to beat United and Tottenham and draw with Arsenal. Keep it up, mate.

Swansea Claim Respectful Draw Against Toffees

article-1229564-071AE8BF000005DC-460_314x283.jpg


Premier League Fixture
Swasea 2-2 Everton
Swansea Goals: Joe Allen (57) David Goodwillie (71)
Everton Goals: Bilyaletdinov (75, 83)

Everton will be dissapointed with the draw against Swansea as they are a team they should be beating, however may be a little releaved after the swans were 2-0 up on 71 minutes. The swans worked hard, and maybe a draw was unfair on the swans but to draw against a team like Everton, Carter claimed it shows the distance the lads have come since we started out in 2009 and a massive amount of credit is due to the group of lads.

Carter turns to football forum, FM Base for help

fmbase2010_logo.png


Swansea manager, Daniel Carter has asked for your help. He's been offered the job at Liverpool in 2013 after being at Swansea since 2009. He's currently in his first premier league season, which he's just finished.

Carter managed to save his team from relegation, finishing in a safe 16th spot. Although this, Carter has been offered a 3 year contract at Liverpool, worth 42,000 a week with a transfer budget of a healthy 23,000,000 with the option to adjust to 33,000,000.

Carter has turned to FM base to ask for the users help and has made it clear he won't continue his story until he knows what he's doing (story will continue if I take over at Liverpool but as Liverpool manager, obv.) and it's simple: What shall he do?
 
As much as I love Liverpool; for the sake of the story, stay at Swansea. You're going to be a Swans Legend.
 
I would suggest staying with Swansea, just moving to Liverpool would be a waste of building up your team and getting them in the Premier League.
 
I am tempted to stay at swansea; but I can't see my transfer budget being that good and it's 2013 game time, which means a lot of the "known" players will be retiring soon. I am stuck what to do. anyone got any reasons of why I should stay, or go?

Try and persuade me, give me reasons.
 
If you move then I feel it would ruin what youu've achieved in building your squad to get there and actually stay up :S Your making some good signings, notablly for me Berbatov and Riise, so your defo moving forward with them.
