Saturday August 13. Two days to go to the biggest game in our teams history (in my lifetime at least), and even though I'm a little bit gutted that the Jack Army won't be appearing on the first Match of the Day of the season, I am just a little bit more excited to be making the trip to the City of Manchester Stadium, sorry Eastlands, sorry... what's it called again? Ah, the Etihad Stadium, on Monday.
Having been a Swan since August 22, 1992 (I will get to this in a later post), I am filled with a sense of anticipation, excitement, hope, dread, fear, pride, jubilation ... the list could go on. Of course, I would do anything for us to survive out first season in the big time, but I've said for many years that I 'just want to see Swansea City in the Premiership, and say I was there!' I can see it being a long, hard season. Yes, we'll get our drubbings but the sense of achievement surrounding the club at this time is amazing, and I for one will be relishing every single game, and every mile travelled.
The first Welsh team in the Premier League. It's going to be special.
Swansea Till I Die.
League prediction: 16th
v Man City prediction: 1-1
