Good evening Swans fans!
I bring you news of some changes! Firstly, rest assured ForzaSwansea is staying put - it's just me that's going away.
It's been an absolute pleasure to create, edit and write for this website over the past six years (that's right, SIX years!).
I started this blog back in 2010 to chart the activity of Swansea City, just as Brendan Rodgers was settling in. Little did I know that it was to become the season the club would dramatically rise to the top flight! I followed the Swans as they took their first steps in the Premier League, their brief but exciting European tour, charted the rise and fall of both Michael Laudrup and Garry Monk, and a lot more in between.
I even won the title of Best Sports Blog in Wales at the Wales Blog Awards 2012, and wrote two books about the Swans (in 2014 and 2015). A fantastic journey that wouldn't have been possible if I was writing about a boring club.
However in the last year or two I haven't been able to dedicate the time this website deserves, thanks to other projects eating up my waking day. So I've made the decision to pass the reigns to a new group of bloggers, who have assured me that the blog will remain focused on the Swans.
The change will take place over the next few days, but make sure you keep coming back for the usual Swans news and check out the archive from the last six years.
I'm still writing about the Swans for Yahoo! Sport and am sure I have another book in me somewhere... For now, you can keep in touch with me on Twitter.
Keep visiting ForzaSwansea and keep following the Swans!
Forza Swansea!
