So this is what being jilted at the altar must feel like. Boycotting all things ABBA, Volvo, IKEA and Spotify until further notice. And thanks to the Middlesbrough FC and Hammarby Fotboll fans who’ve battered me all day. Touché. The beautiful game eh Swansea City AFC.

If he signs I’ll back him, but Matos feels like an obscene punt - doesn’t scream ambition or bring any buzz. Hard not to feel there are better options out there. Will Still? Muscat? Not sure Rogers is as “out of our league” as people say. Underwhelming. Swansea City AFC

Underwhelming.

That’s one of the worst press conferences I can remember, and why he’s in the dugout tomorrow is beyond me. Far too close to Sheehan and clearly still raw - we needed someone with distance (O’Leary?!). One thing he’s right about: there’s enough quality to get a result tomorrow.

O'dea(r). The ghost of Sheehan all over that performance. We need today to mark the dawn of a new era. In Matos we trust. My god, I really hope this gamble pays dividends 🙏

Anyone still in doubt about the task at hand got a reality check tonight - but some realism is needed. Matos has had one training session. The performance lacked certainty and was drained of confidence - both things that take more than a day to fix. Patience. Swansea City AFC

This whole clip is probably the most devastating political evisceration I've ever seen. Delivered gloriously by His Majesty's Leader of the Opposition Kemi Badenoch as she tears into the Chancellor's growth-destroying budget and character. This is a Prime Minister in the making.

Great to join Steven Carroll again on The JackCast. More Swansea City AFC off-field turbulence and below-par performances to unpack. Warning: Not one to listen to near cliff edges or bridges. It can't get any worse can it?

One last plug - I joined Steven Carroll to mull over the Swans’ current woes. I'm hopeful today will bring a turn in fortune. Bookmark it👇 Have a listen as we discuss the Matos appointment, recent performances and where we go from here - not exactly cheerful in hindsight 😂

Excellent start. Effective high press evident from the first whistle (pretty miraculous given Matos has only had 2 training sessions). Tactical tweak needed at half time though. Midfield croweded out after the 2nd goal, forcing us to go direct and look blunt. Huge progress.

A performance with more red flags than the march on Stalingrad. A bright first 20, but the positives ended there. At the first hint of pressure (after HT), confidence evaporated and the style of play was worse than anything under Sheehan. That can’t be what you offer Vítor.

This isn't what education needs. Teachers don't need more pay. They need more time. That's the primary issue within education. Those directing the negotiations need a re-focus. National Education Union itv.com/news/2025-11-2…

That's a leap in the right direction. Man for man outstanding and as for that Tymon goal - not sure I've seen better than that live. This has to be the turning point. Surely. Smiling leaving the .com hasn't been a habit, more of the same Tuesday please 🙏

There are ways to lose, and that was one of them. Plenty of spirit, and on the balance of play we were more than worthy of at least a point. A strong away performance and deserved more. Play like that consistently and we’ll be looking up, not down. Bring on Deadpool FC🦢

Always a pleasure to join Steven Carroll on The JackCast. Reviewing the WBA FA Cup tie, feelings heading into the transfer window... And looking forward to two massive home games to come.

Opposition parties shouldn’t fall for the no-confidence trap. Let Starmer lead The Labour Party to its May reckoning, then capitalise on the collapse. After that, let Labour’s factionalism finish the job from within. Win-win both short and long term. Patience beats grandstanding.

Happy Shrove Tuesday isn't now, and has never been, a thing - you bigoted, ignorant, oaf. Ramadan Mubarak to all that celebrate 🌙
