<span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The interest in Saturday's crunch Championship promotion decider at the Millennium Stadium took </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Swansea </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">City</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">'s squad by surprise today as the club held a media day at its training ground.
The media were out in force as </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Swansea</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">'s promotions hopefuls were inundated with requests for interviews.
Sky, HTV, BBC and Channel 5 all had their cameras rolling as they mixed in with the local and national radio and written press.
Even manager Kenny Jackett was surprised at the amount of interest their League One showdown against </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Barnsley</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"> has attracted.
&quot;Where have you all been for the last two years? Is there a big game coming up then?'' joked Jackett as he prepared for his long list of interviews.
</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">Swansea</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"> will also be featured heavily on the John Barnes Football Night show on Channel 5 tomorrow (Friday, 12midnight).
</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"><span>&quot;W</span><span lang="EN-US">e've sent camera crews to both the Liberty Stadium and to Oakwell to report on the mood in both camps ahead of the big game,'' said a Channel 5 spokesman.
&quot;Through interviews with past and present players, as well as with Kenny Jackett, the Swansea City feature will look at how things have been turned around at the club in the past year or so.
&quot;John (Barnes), who knows Kenny well from his </span><span lang="EN-US">Watford</span><span lang="EN-US"> days, will be assessing the likelihood of the Swans once again making it to the top-flight of English football. If </span><span lang="EN-US">Watford</span><span lang="EN-US"> and </span><span lang="EN-US">Wigan</span><span lang="EN-US"> can do it, why not the Swans?&quot;
</span></span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"><span lang="EN-US"><span lang="EN-US">The game will also be covered live on Sky Sports 2 on Saturday, with the build up starting at </span><span lang="EN-US">2.30pm</span><span lang="EN-US"> for a </span><span lang="EN-US">3pm</span><span lang="EN-US"> kick-off.</span></span></span></p>

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"><span lang="EN-US"><span lang="EN-US">The Swans will be taking around 34,000 to the Millennium Stadium, although there are still a few various priced tickets available at the Liberty Stadium.
Supporters are reminded, however, that they will go off sale at 12noon tomorrow (Friday). They will also not be available at the Millennium Stadium on the day of the game.
</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">All remaining tickets have to be sent back to the Football League before the game for safety reasons.
</span></span></span></p>

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The Liberty Stadium ticket office will be open from </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">10am</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"> to 12noon tomorrow. </span></span></span></p>

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">The club will be taking 36 official coaches to the game, leaving the Liberty Stadium at </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">11am</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"> and returning straight after the game.
The club shop (</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">9am</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">) and West Stand food outlets will be open before the coaches depart, while there will also be limited car parking available at the Liberty Stadium.
