Swansea TV ja stream

Historical Background

Swansea City were originally known as Swansea Town, and the club was formed in 1912 in the Welsh town of the same name. The name was changed to Swansea City Association Football Club when the town was given city status in 1969, and fans also refer to their team as The Swans, The Jacks or simply as Swansea.

Swansea City are based at the Liberty Stadium, which they have occupied since its opening in 2005. Prior to that, the team was based at Vetch Field, which is remembered fondly by fans after serving as their home ground for more than 90 years.

The team currently play in the English Football League (EFL) Championship, which is the second tier of English football and receives sufficient media coverage for fans to enjoy watching Swansea City on TV. For those who would prefer even more Swansea City TV coverage, the internet provides a good alternative, and allows them to enjoy matches via Swansea City live streams.

Club Badge and Colours

The badge of Swansea City A.F.C. (and Swansea Town as the club was known previously) has changed several times over the years, with the first badge being inspired by the town’s coat of arms, which has the famous Swansea Castle at its heart. The current badge is a much more streamlined and modern affair, showing a majestic black swan swimming above the name of the club.

Swansea City’s home strip is one of the simplest in English football and comprises a white shirt and white shorts – both with black trim – and white socks. The away strip consists of a shirt of orange fading to dark grey, dark grey shorts with orange trim and dark grey socks.
