Salako on loan was majestic for the very short time he was with us.
Tommy Hutch should be mentioned if only for being able to bamboozle a full back even at his age without having to go past him.
Honourable mention also to John Hodge, although not in the same league as the others. |  | | |

I always liked John Hodge and Andy Cook down the right hand side... Decent for the level we were at at the time |  |

Yeah there wasn't much else to shout about... Jonathan Coates... Ryan Casey... Marc Goodfellow...
Andy Robinson for decent for our level (though the complete opposite of what you would picture as a left winger)... Kevin McCloud had sparks of excitement...
Andy Legg had a long throw...
Obviously Leon played there for a while | |

Sorry Coatsey mate forgot you played over 300 games for Swans, agreed Tommy Hutch and
Johnny Hodge & Freezer how about Dzemal Hadziabdic 'Jimmy' I know he was a full back but remember his bursts outside Leighton................. | |

Tommy Craig, 'could shuffle a pack of cards with his left foot'.
Ian Callaghan, 'could drop a 30 / 40 yard pass on a sixpence'.
Class!  | |

Scott Sinclair gets a lot of grief but was awesome in the Championship for us, culminating in a huge contribution towards our Wembley win and Premier League status.  | |

Jason Bowen was decent. Had a trial with Newcastle whilst with us - who were top flight at the time - and fair play he took my autograph book up and got a load of signatures for me (I was a ballboy). Beardsley, lee clark... i forget who else
Think he left to go to Birmingham in the end | |

Ritchie Appleby must've been half decent, sung enough about him |  |
| |
| One For The Oldies on 03:20 - Feb 7 with 2558 views | Matlock_Jack |
Joey Beauchamp and Tony Cullen, although one was only on loan for a brief period, but looked a class above on the ball. | | | |
| One For The Oldies on 07:46 - Feb 7 with 2502 views | builthjack |
Tommy's feet, Jeffs speed, and Leightons crosses, put them all together and we would have a hell of a player. |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

What he said
Although fair play some great shouts hard to argue with |  |
| The hair and the beard have gone I am now conforming to society, tis a sad day
The b*stards are coming back though |

He wasn't a winger but as an overlapping full back he would skin full backs and put in some brilliant crosses. Danny Bartley. |  | | |

I know it's going back a lot longer than thirty years ,but the greatest winger to play forbSwansea by a country mile was Cliff Jones. | |

He did actually come to us as a winger (as he was at Bristol City)
Eventually Harry Griffiths converted him to full back and he went from mediocre to a legend. |  |

Going back more than 30 with the first two...
Two of my favourite players though. |
Brian Evans was the dogs danglies.
I remember the TV pundits creaming themselves over him starring for Wales whilst playing for 3rd division Swansea City.
David Coleman was beside himself | |

Started watching the Swans in 1970.
First wingers I witnessed were
Len Allchurch
Brian Evans
Ronnie Rees (record signing)
During the dark years of re-election...
Dave Roberts (signed from Shrewsbury - probably the worst)
Clive Slattery
Rising from the ashes...
Micky Conway (thought he was brill)
Kevin Moore (fancied his Fiat X19)
Alan Curtis
Robbie James
Then the Toshack Years... | |
