Swansea semi pro Women. Good value? 20:56 - Jun 16 with 486 views

At the risk of being accused of various phobia I again bravely raise the issue of the new club strategy of bring the women's team in to the centre of the club. They are now semi professional but I understand the team is not performing very well. 5th in the Adran league where Llansawel Briton Ferry were second.

Coleman had big plans fro this team but seem to suggest it would be Wales only operation. How much is it all costing?

It was funded by Leigh Dineen before apparently bravo to him. Taking a team back up staff and coaches to Europe will not be cheap and poor value to be hammered.

I would back them all the way if there is a plan for them to be self financing.

Well remember when Swans fans like MM and Huwbert saved our club ?

Well the next saviour might well be a woman /women with successful businesses.

Swans needs to welcome everyone and anyone who wants to get involved.
On the specifics then there will need to be investment but at a certain point then they will certainly bring in their own sponsors/revenue.

5th is a poor season. Should be top 3 every year.
Modest investment is needed but the benefits far outweigh the price.

Beware of the Risen People

They went to champions league a lot more than just 2017.

Liegh looked after the womens team from about 2015 as the club weren't interested at that time. It would have disbanded if he hadn't of taken it over. The team was ran by him and Ian Owen.

Club had it back for the 23/24 season but Ian and liegh continued for that season overseeing things . Ian left beginning of the 24/25 season and liegh halfway through it. They finished outside the top four for the first time that i can remember.

I heard that when the club took it back they also were given about £150,000 by liegh and Ian that was surplus funds in the bank account of the women.

Women went to champions league in

2017/18
2020/21 Cyprus
2021/22 Cyprus
2022/23 North Macedonia

They won or were second in the league from 2015 to 2023 winning it 4 times

Looking at the players they had last year they probably have the biggest budget so 5th is very poor. Britton Ferry and nunerous others are amateur .

When they play at Llandarcy entry is free for the 50 or so that turn up. There is no sponsorship money. I would hazard a guess that the team and everything that goes with it costs the club over £200,000 a season.

They need to get into the English system but they the costs will be higher.
