We all have a go at this guy but just because it’s in WoL and another source doesn’t mean he’s plagiarised it. They may share the same original source. |  |

If that's the case why didn't WoL release the information earlier? |  | |  |

I’ve no idea. I can’t stand the rag but I’m not buying it that all they do is trawl other sites then republish without referencing the source. They may do it when taking info from this site as they may feel they can get away with it but not recognised publications such as the one mentioned in the post above. What is annoying is they are now trying to charge for ‘Premium’ articles. They won’t get a penny out of me. |  |

They don't have to trawl websites, just Google Swansea City and click on news and up to date articles from around the world appear. It's just lazy journalism. |  | |  |

I know - he didn't even mention my posting this in his article!! Perhaps it's because he's blocked me He must be a regular on the Swans Indy I guess. |  | |  |

I’m no expert here but surely that’s the way many news outlets get their information along with agencies such as Reuters for world news. They can’t be expected to have their own man on the ground for everything. It maybe and I stand to be corrected, that they have agreements to use this info without crediting. I appreciate there is no such agreement with this site and fully understand Keith’s stance. It just seems to me it’s sort of ‘fashionable’ to accuse WoL nearly every time they report something as being unscrupulous. And I’m saying this as someone who can’t stand them as previously mentioned. |  |

Of course you cannot stand them as they and the national paper of Wales well south wales anyway. You are a political poster and wear the Union flag on your moniker. The Press Association and Reuters. WoL are far from perfect but I grew up with them as a contact to Swansea city when a toddler in a village and Swnsea were Div 4. I love wales I love the Senedd and I love Swnsea city and the WoL ( and the Swansea independent as well). |  |

National paper of Wales? You think so? Cardiff yes but outside of that I don’t think so. Let’s not start to mention north Wales coverage. |  |

Plus WoL were not around in the current form when we were in division four, the main paper in print was the evening post and the current so called journalists were not spreading their plagiarism. |  | |  |

Wol wasn't around when we were in division 4, unless you mean the Western Mail which was heavily Cardiff biased |  |

I remember in the late 70’s a bloke used to come into my local and other pubs in the area on a saturday night selling the ‘football echo’ , needless to say nobody ever bought the Caaeediff rag |  | |  |

Didn't we have a green one in Swansea, within an hour of the match finishing on a Saturday all the results were in print and match reports. |  | |  |

I enjoyed my chats with him, gave him the Julian Alsop signing for the Swans story. He said, if this isn’t right I will never speak to you again 😂 Nice guy. |  |
