    I wonder if the Swantits will make a comeback?

    If they are I'm setting up my telescope in the Brewongle and praying we score a lot.

    I don't remember a lot of the 80's, various reasons, exactly what was going on and who are the Swantits, Swanettes?

    They were Cheer Girls who were on platforms at either end of the SCG and world dance after every goal.

    I hate to be the first to break the news to you Big Al, but I?m not sure the Swantits were exactly ummm female. Not that there?s anything wrong with that ;-)

    Well if the Swantits and Swannettes aren't the same thing then I am confused and the Telescope remains locked up until I find out.

    When we used to go and see Capper at the SCG my brother and I used to take it in turns trying to stick our knees into dad's back and take a speccy whilst screaming "CAPPER!". The old man's going to be nervous on Saturday night- we're all a few years removed from it physically, but certainly not from a maturity perspective.
    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

    They were almost indistinguishable, apart for the fact that the Swannettes were very attractive females and the Swantits were a bunch of old drag queens.
    My opinion is objective truth in its purest form

    Ah, you learn something new everyday. It was definitely the Swannettes that I remember.
