Hound Do feel Swansea’s luck will break shortly - can’t keep going through games winning with only 5 or so shots on goal

Think we’d do them in the play offs tbh


I would like them in the play offs. No doubt they are very flattered by their League position. With a half decent squad available we would beat them,.

WestYorksRoyal A week off after today. Hopefully progress on Rinomhota, Meite, Morrison and Ejaria by the Forest game, though it sounds as if Swift is further off.


I`ll be surprised if we see Swift again this term.

I've heard April or so. I'm hopeful that if we make the playoffs he'll be able to play, and I'd back us against anybody if he can.

Winston Biscuit Swansea are one of those blander than bland clubs that I genuinely forget exists


They've got a very good fanbase ... not that bland if you watch them play.

Forest, Brum, QPR next then. Need 7 points plus I think looking at the fixture following that

Things really get interesting in April with Barnsley first up, shortly followed by Cardiff

I think they are bland this season. This isn’t the nice easy on the eye football from previous Swansea teams. They are very defensively set up with no flair.

fanbase was bang average before they got PL football. If they don't go up for another couple of years they will be back down to those levels again. IMO just a bit of a nothing club who got a shiny stadium and experienced top level football for a brief moment so attendances went up. See Hull City for another example.

and yeah, before you say it, I know :lol:

That pen was proper soft, don’t see the foul at all tbh. Anyway don’t think it makes too much difference to us

Totally agree. An absolute NOTHING club. Let's do 'em in a play off final. THAT would be lovely :D

Skimming through Owlsweb as I wanted to see their reaction to the penalty, as a majority they thought it was a stone bonker one, and that he deserved the red for making no attempt for the ball, would have preferred him to slide in and get the yellow.

They really don't think their players are clever enough for the Championship, summed up by the following quote:

The thickest bunch of players I've ever seen. I'm amazed we let them on the team coach given how they will be trying to lick the windows.

Thought Boner(?) first seemed to push Puscas then tripped him up for good measure. Definite penalty and after the 4 decisions not given at Hillsborough it was deserved even if it wasn’t one.

Think Hound’s referring to the Swansea pen.

Which looked nailed on to me seeing it just after it happened on sky . Daft challenge anyway flying in from the wrong angle

Seen the disallowed goal from Boro now. Awful awful decision. If anything a foul by the Swansea player.

Didn't watch today, but sounds like Richards and Yiadom down the flanks were great. Without Swift, Ejaria and Meite, going for a defensive midfield or 3 CBs and allowing them to provide width with Joao and Puscas up front surely has to be our plan B.

You know, that second place is within reach still. If we can just get the injured players back, a charge isn't out of the question......but it's just we need those players back soon.

Yeah the Swansea one. Our one was nailed on no brainer decision

Defender didn’t even bother argue

He was kicking around with the coaches at the end of a training session and apparently he tried a bicycle kick thinking he was in his twenties and not his forties !!! and fell on it.
