I hate them because they're Welsh. I fucking hate Wales. Mainly due to fact that they're so nationalist. If you ever go to Wales they all talk English until they hear an English accent then they start talking in that fuckin gibberish they call a language (mainly in North Wales) but them lot in the valleys are no better and Swansea is a valleys club therefore I hate them Talk about talking gibberish, what a load of rubbish. Being proud of your nationality isn't a bad thing, is it? Either all of them do it or especially the ones in North Wales. I'm very confused. Are you aware that our present and our previous manager were both born in Wales? Just a thought! So what. Just a thought |

The people are no more nationalist than I am, they're proud to be Welsh just as I am proud to be English and sometimes we have a bit of banter about it. I like Swansea as a place and acknowledge that their football club is on the crest of a wave rather like ourselves. I do however think it's wrong for them and other Welsh clubs to be in the English leagues its not right and very bad for LoW clubs as having their big clubs in our leagues turns their leagues into a complete insignificance. The same would befall the SPL if Celtic and Rangers were allowed into our leagues its very league one at the moment but would be conference or below in no time without those two. Think about it folks if you're a proud Englishman why would you expect someone with a different heritage to be anyless proud of what they are. |

I like the fact Swansea hate us. It means that they care a lot more about us than we do about them, which makes sense because I've only ever thought they're a poxy club with tonnes of media hype because they play half decent football.

I agree with most comments that the vast majority of welsh are not anti english but I have experienced open hostility, to me being english, twice on visits to North Wales towns (not football related).

Similarly to what someone said on the first page, the only thing I feel for Swansea is complete indifference. Just a nothing club, like Hull or Norwich.
Quite like Wales, mind.

mischievious jounalism best used for lining the cat litter tray Common sense at last! Most right-thinking Swansea fans are disgusted by how low the Wales Online (Cardiff's mouthpiece) have sunk with this article. I think hate is going a bit far...nothing wrong with a bit of banter with those teams normally finishing around the same position in the league though  Also, Swansea have been involved in the Football League for a lot longer than many English teams (and more successfully than quite a few) so trotting out the old line about us not being entitled to be in the Premier League is getting boring now. P.S. Look forward to seeing the obligatory inflatable sheep thrown around the away end when we play you at home (soooo original). |

I don't really think anyone cares one way or the other about Swansea too much. I recall those boyo's invading the pitch though in about 1996 after we beat them 2-1 with Gleghorn and an other scoring (oddly remember Andy Legge scoring for them and taking throws that would shame Rory!!) at the Vetch, also running the gauntlet on my way out, there wasn't too much Welsh love going around that day.

I think if Stoke fans had to choose who to support between Cardiff and Swansea it would be the swans everyday.
Went to Blackpool a few years ago and I saw a window sticker of a Cardiff fan taking a piss on a stoke shirt.........how fcuckin rude!!!

Just the local rag trying to engineer a rivalry because Swansea have no Premier League rivals anywhere near, and Cardiff are too insignificant these days.
The comments at the bottom of the article from Swansea fans say the same thing- gutter journalism.
Surely any club who had Chico Flores on the books can't accuse other clubs of cheating. At least Victor Moses didn't threaten his gaffer with a housebrick...

What percentage of Swansea fans hate their Premier League rivals? Arsenal 24.02 Aston Villa 23.26 Bournemouth 2.07 Chelsea 59.89 Crystal Palace 21.09 Everton 19.78 Leicester 26.3 Liverpool 53.8 Man City 45.11 Man Utd 61.85 Newcastle 31.85 Norwich 41.96 Southampton 11.74 Stoke 71.3 Sunderland 23.91 Tottenham 31.63 Watford 7.17 West Brom 14.13 West Ham 57.83 ----------- Go on make a fool of me, what am I missing here - how can those figures be PERCENTAGES? OK Since you asked 71.3 % of Swansea fans hate Stoke, but ask the same question if they hated Sunderland only 23.91% polled said yes. Look at it another way 28.7% of Swansea fans actually like us. Happy with that. |

Swansea fan here...hate is a strong word just used by a Cardiff based newspaper to stir up trouble...but if there is a reason Stoke isn't liked it's because we see your team as a dirty one. There was some BBC article 'football myths' yesterday and one was of Stoke being a long ball team. Well, it showed that these days you do actually pass the ball around more but it also showed that you foul as much as anyone. Charlie Adam in particular from what I remember...some of his 'tackles' were a disgrace. So, i have no hate for Stoke as a football club but i can't say i think much of your football either. Saying that I would suggest West Ham are worse. Regarding insignificance...we finished above you last year (just), so obviously not too insiginificant. |

Statistics, as always, are misleading. Watch Stoke play and you will see Stoke players getting booked for innocuous first fouls while an opposition player will have to commit 3 or 4 fouls, most or all of them worse than anything committed by a Stoke player before they get a yellow. This is because referees approach Stoke games with the same prejudice that you yourself display, they are supposedly professionals but they are full of the same ignorant shit as you. As for Charlie Adam, if he played for the same club as Paul Scholes people would just shrug, smile and make an excuse for him. The great thing about Charlie is that he will give it and take it in the same spirit, whereas teams like Swansea like to dish it out as much as everyone else but roll around like kittens and squeal like girls if they get it back. |

Lazy, but effective journalism if, you gauge effectiveness by reaction/ engagement.. Here. Swansea have done brilliantly coming from nowhere, we were " hated " by Gillingham and Stockport, let's where they are now. As for Swansea....don't care where they go as long as we go further

You're wrong about us being a dirty team, of course, but again that's fine. As someone has said bellow, we get some fucking terrible cards from over zealous referee's, like last weekend for instance. First yellow card without any warning for nothing, just a few minutes into the match, but you can work stats any way that you like. Even if Charlie is a naughty boy on a rare occasion. I don't mean that Swansea are irrelevant in English football, just to me. I reserve hate for the likes of Wolves, Arsenal, Birmingham et al. I found your lot fairly irksome when you harboured the likes of Chico Flores mind. |

I don't really care because I hate Swansea FC.
I also hate Villa, Bournemouth, Man Utd, Arsenal, Spurs, Sunderland, Newcastle, Everton and Liverpool currently.
My hatred of teams/fans tends to be reciprocal and aligned to their perception of us. Likewise, if a team is positive about us or helps us in anyway then I like them.
Other Teams I currently like... Barcelona.
