[Football] We need to talk about Swansman

[BiffyBoy100]

This feels a bit like Leon Knight. Some love him, and some don't. But he's entertaining and gets a chant!

"Swansman, Swansman, from Sweden he comes, The greatest fan of Potter, he'll never be done. 21,015 posts and counting, he's always there, In every thread, he'll get in their heads, without a care!"

He has won many arguments with lots of posters including myself with decent facts and logical and researched premises. There is a slight ‘air’ of the pro-Brexit dogma of having had enough of experts or smarty pants on this thread. However, I can see why many think he is a condescending prick.

At the end of the day, folk like Swanny either make this board more interesting (and eccentricities are tolerated) or really threaten those of us who are only comfortable with our own opinions and being around people just like us.

Finally, he is a Brighton fan. He might not admit it, in-fact this statement might totally trigger his contrarian nature but go read his posts on the match threads, he can’t hide his love, he is in denial.

Well he spent all of yesterday evening on The Shed End match day thread on the Chelsea forum with a new account (that he made on 20/9/2022 - this is separate to his SwedishEntity account). He spent the entire evening (some 54 posts) defending Potter exclusively, liking every single post which praised Potter. The syntax and content was identical to what he posts here.

Just for balance.

Is it Sweden or a bedsit in Croydon some are convinced it’s all fake.

That's because he IS Graham Potter.

 

[Nobby]

If you get into an argument with Swansman, by definition you're already losing.
I like him. Although I'm tempted to campaign to have him banned just because he doesn't like ABBA.

WTF. He doesn’t like ABBA??

 

[nickjhs]

I really don't understand what all the hysteria is about. I would appreciate it if some of you swannie out folks could post some links demonstrating his supposed crimes against the forum. I haven't seen a single post of his that I find so irksome that would have me want him removed, to be honest I find his post quite interesting.

Why do you feel the need to A. Stalk him, and B. Report on him ?

I was basking in the joy of Chelsea’s failure when a familiar voice started dominating the match day thread there too.

 

[nickjhs]

totally and utterly agree. He pollutes most every thread with his sarcastic, rude, up himself remarks. Belittles and insults, takes over just about every thread with his smug look at me ness. I also put him on ignore, the only person i have ever done this to, but this just about makes reading this forum unreadable. About time for either a ban, or should volluntarily should get off NSC and get himself into Shed End and pour his Potter love in onto that forum. Although I doubt he is up for that.

Can’t be right that genuine BHA fans are getting pissed off with our own forum because of someone whoisnt even a fan of our club but seems infatuated with our once upon a time manager. Up to the mods I guess ….

Anyhow, for me i’m posting no more … may lurk from time to time, but I just can’t be bothered, shame as i’ve enjoyed NSC.

So sad that you and others don't have the self control to simply not read his posts. Personally I quite like what he brings to the forum. There are others on here who when I see their name/avatar I just skip past what I expect to be unsophisticated drivel. I thought about ignoring this whole thread for this very reason but decided to drag myself through some of the drivel to add my support to Swanny

 

[oldboyroy]

I wouldn't let anyone stop me coming on here and posting. We all have varying views and healthy debate is what this forum is all about.

Why did you find the need to reply to my comment, when I was replying to a point made by somebody else? Presumably you’re going to reply to ever other negative comment made in this thread?

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Imho @Guinness Boy and @Swansman give as good as they get, they can both look after themselves online, there’s no bullying.

Well, quite. But if a 'word' is going to be had with someone, might as well share it around

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

Some have 7 and counting...

 

[Icy Gull]

He can be annoying, but can’t we all?

On Potter, he’s like a dog with a bone in his defence but to want someone banned because “he wouldn’t let it lie” in discussions is an over reaction imo. Nobody holds a gun to your head and forces you to read anything on here.

I managed to get quite a few cliches in the above

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

He called me a puddle the other day which is a new one. Thought that was quite rude.

For what it's worth, I don't really care either way on him, though I have found he rarely replies to what you actually write and it all becomes a bit twitterish, where two people are having an argument with each other along two very different threads. Just don't engage - he'll be having his own threads on Grand Old Team when GP replaces Lampard.

Don’t read too much into it, it’s not that deep

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

He will love this thread

It’s basically a statue

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Also if we got all the weirdos off this forum, there would be about 5 people left

How would you know the numbers?

 

[dwayne]

It's taken many months to come to this. On the other hand rather like potter himself at Chelsea Vs Brighton it's only taken a few weeks for the shed end to turn on the swansman



Graham Potter was appointed on September 12th. Droyman joined this forum on September 20th. Every post is effectively defending Potter and slagging the team off. Go on mate f*ck off and join the Potter forum, this one is for Chelsea fans.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

That's Potter rubbing off on him or else...

This is Graham Potter!

The whole I'm smarter at football than you thing might be the give away!

Didn’t someone once cross reference his positing times to see if they stopped during training / matches
