Ignore is the definition of rattLOLed. Probably for the best before his obsession becomes dangerous

'But I said at half-time "Now you know what shirt you are swapping let's go out and play the game. You know what shirt you want because you've had enough time looking at it".

When we went up in 06, Coppell told the players NOT to swap shirts with illustrious opponents in order to keep them focused.

That having been said, I thought Swansea played some excellent football v Man Utd and whilst you got the feeling Man Utd always had a couple more gears to go up through, the record books will show that it was only a defensive mistake that cost you the game.

That's a lovely, heartwarming story in this age of racist, millionaire, cheating footy players (I could go on if referring specifically to JT) but for 90 mins tomoz I couldn't give a flying oxf*rd :wink:

AthleticoSpizz time will tell chum


you come on back y'hear


The Irish FA is understood to have drawn up a shortlist of around six names for the vacant Northern Ireland manager's job.

Jim Magilton, Michael O'Neill, Iain Dowie, Gerry Armstrong and former Cardiff and Southampton manager Dave Jones are believed to be on the list.

Swansea boss Brendan Rodgers is thought to have turned down a request to consider the role on a part-time basis.

It is believed the interview process will begin next week.

The manager's first away game will be against Holland in Amsterdam on 2 June.

BBC Sport learned on Tuesday that a friendly against the Dutch had been lined up which will be the first time the countries have met since the qualifying campaign for the 1978 World Cup.

Candidates O'Neill and Magilton are currently working together at League of Ireland club Shamrock Rovers, with manager O'Neill being assisted by the former Ipswich Town and Queens Park Rangers boss.

However, it is not clear if the duo will be prepared to run on a joint ticket for the Northern Ireland job.

Former Chelsea manager Avram Grant expressed interest in the job last month but is no longer believed to be in the running.

The Irish FA is seeking a replacement for Nigel Worthington who stood down after the completion of the unsuccessful Euro 2012 qualifying campaign in October.

The new manager looks certain to be in place for the friendly against Norway at Windsor Park in February.

Meh, Gylfi / Brendan / boohoo. It came down to one game which Swansea won. Come back and gloat all you like when you finish 8th or become a city which can boast more than being an ambitionless graveyard of abandoned buildings, low skill level and extensive heroin addiction.

Come back and gloat all you like when you finish 8th (already finished higher) or become a city which can boast more than being an ambitionless graveyard of abandoned buildings (Green park, that funny pointy building and all those flats...), low skill level (Div 1 West?) and extensive heroin addiction (isn't that why there's those funny lights in all the fast food places near the station?).


Apart from that I take your point.

...only if that point was a needle dripping with delicious "Swansea Wine".

Someone got out of the wrong side of bed this morning eh?

Anyway, can I come around your place to sing you a lullaby tonight...something like...

I love you Gylfi,
and if it's quite alright I'll bum you Gylfi,
all through the tender night,
oh baby Gylfi
trust in me when I say.

In fairness they did have a dog which rescued more people than the RNLI do in a year. What have any Reading dogs ever achieved?
........Apart from Kate Winslet.

I'm surprised you remember what a bed is. Your 'wrong side' is probably Dixons shop window.

If you only read one poster on HNA from now on, read Extended Phenotype. Not only my favourite contributor, he’s fast becoming my favourite human being, with his sub-Brooker style of common-sense affrontedness. No-one is safe. He respects no-one. Brevity is his watch-word and the gibe is mightier than the sword. I already fear and secretly hope for the inevitable withering put-down in response to this obsequious appraisal of the man I wish I was.

How observant...however, whilst I'm sipping cheap whisky to keep me warm in said shop window I'll be happily watching 'The Sig' spanking them in for the mighty Jacks.
