The numbers who attended and the questions posed to the panel just underlined the passion you all have for this football club.
There is a lot of hard work going on behind the scenes to put an infrastructure in place that will help Swansea City be successful for the long term. It’s so important that we are accountable to you as supporters, and that we are open and honest with you in terms of what the plans are to take your club forward. It was a really good evening, and one myself and the rest of the panel thoroughly enjoyed. I’d like to start by saying how great it was to meet so many of you at the fans’ forum on Wednesday evening. Good afternoon and welcome to the Stadium for our Championship fixture against Leicester City. We value and appreciate you, and we cannot perform on or off the pitch without you behind us. Your support has been immeasurable and while we will have good days and bad days, I am going to do everything to be successful here.Īs I said on Wednesday night, it’s important you as supporters hold me accountable because you are the heart and soul of this club. It was the first opportunity for me to connect with many of you and answer your questions directly alongside Michael (Duff), Paul (Watson), Matt (Grimes) and Paul Meller from the Supporters’ Trust. This week I had the pleasure of meeting many supporters at our fans’ forum, which took place here at the Stadium. Today we are supporting the Show Racism the Red Card campaign and, in this environment, it is our responsibility to this community to condemn racism and prejudice loudly and clearly.ĭuring the minute’s silence before kick-off we will also be remembering the 116 children and 28 adults who sadly lost their lives in Aberfan on Octo– a disaster that continues to have a deep resonance within the south Wales community. We at Swansea City want to speak directly to the members of our community about our shared fight against racism in all its forms. While these tragic events are a great distance away, many people across the UK are experiencing trauma and fear because of increasing racism and prejudice.
We will be observing a minute’s silence prior to kick-off today in memory of the innocent civilians who have perished in the latest outbreak of violence in this long-running conflict. In the weeks since that horrific attack, thousands more civilians in Gaza have died and the humanitarian situation there is growing increasingly desperate. This is our first game since the massacre of hundreds of Israeli civilians by Hamas terrorists on October 7. Good afternoon everyone and welcome back to the Stadium for the visit of Leicester City.
