Well we could try running with the ball and having players practice free kicks
Wrexham just hung on until we fecked up
As we go
Lowlight of the night , Eoms pitiful free kicks Wrexham when Wrexham were under pressure

We walked as if we were 4-0 up

Unacceptable

We need a massive clear out this summer


I’m with you tonight regards Eom. He wasn’t good. Nor was Ronald but that’s nothing new.

If we are going to lose one of either Vipotnik ir Galbraith, I hope it’s Vip. Galbraith is the only outstanding talent in the squad imo. Cabango and Galbraith must also go if we want to make a serious attempt at top 6 next season.

Of course it would be better for us if the laws of football didn’t say that Swansea must never be awarded a penalty. Another stonewaller with the ref right next to them. What more can you do?


Hyam should have been penalised and a penalty given for the two shirt pulls in the first half and the blatant shoulder in the back in the second
That said if you play the way we did second half you don’t deserve anything…and if Matos can’t see what everyone watching saw then we’ve got problems, sideways and back when you’re 3-0 up is fine but when you’re losing it’s mind boggling and completely disrespectful to the fans that made a very long journey on a Friday night
That last 40 minutes is as bad as we’ve been all season, gutless

Couldn't be interpreted in any other way than a penalty, poor challenge by the defender.

The sense of urgency of our game diminished ,not saying you go all out attack but the lack of pace in our game was telling at no time was a change of pace employed to outwit their defenders or pull their midfield out of shape.

We f’d about when we did get near they’re box , shoot ffs ,it’s how you score , trying to thread passes through non existent gaps and walk the ball into the net is absolutely pointless as was shown tonight , didn’t anyone in the club watch them against Chelsea !!! … if not it’s criminal
They were more physical than us like we knew they would be and we cowered in every challenge
They wanted it , we didn’t , end of

I just don’t get it
Maris promised a performance to be proud of
The pumping up of the game must have led neutral to view
What they saw was sickening , yet I see many saying we played great stuff
We didn’t frk n score
We walked
Ant team that passes sideways slowly will lose as the opposition wait for their chance
Wrexham are ugly but they do the basics well
We don’t
They scored we didn’t

Matos has done the job he was brought to do this season and get us away from relegation, and he has done that well, we have got back to being a mid table club. will see what he does with a mid table squad next year. have a bad run and will go the way of the rest no doubt.

I love the way fans, without any in the moment fitness data, the hours on the training ground, or the tactical time that would have been worked on for days before can make a judgement on substitutes.

They let us have the ball as much as we wanted ‘ because we don’t always do anything with it ‘ that’s what Parkinson said and he’s right , Wrexham tried to play the ball into the box every chance they had because they wanted to win , we just did the same old sideways and back cack band tried to walk it into the net

We look good playing fast flowing ,forward oriented football,it’s down to Matos to stop the negative stuff but he isn’t , he lets the players go to the default crap

If you put your hand in the fire, you get burnt… if you’ve got any sense you don’t do it again , when is Matos going to learn and stop the tedious faffing about with goal kicks and the pointless slow and meaningless possession for possession sake cack we see far too often and try to win games , 70% possession stats might look good on paper but the only stat that counts is the score and Matos lost badly tonight
Second half as bad as we’ve been all season ,the players looked like they didn’t know what to do and gave up
Totally unacceptable

Thought we were by far the better team who didn't take their chances. Franco 1st min, Vip after doing the hard part. Nailed on penalty again. We need to take on more shots rather than passing the responsibility to the next man. I thought we played really well in parts and they were as disappointing as they were down here.
I get it, they won, we didn't, but it's not all the doom and gloom that's being portrayed on here tonight.
Matos needs to start the rest of the season with Widdel and Walta to see if these guys have got it and they will be fully upto speed of the Championship come next Aug.

When you’ve got Cabango and Burgess as CHs why not pump the ball into the box. They are pir weak link and should be replaced. But probably won’t.


Add in a stopper that's frightened to come off his goal line! Their second goal sums us up perfectly.

Definitely not doom and gloom by a long way. The report is obviously taken in isolation, and I agree it can’t keep cropping up. Matos didn’t get his homework right. It’s a shame. But that second half of football was shocking.

At the end of the day we are 6 or 7 players short of being a top 6 side. Simple as that.

This is a direct quote from Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson after last night's game.
I think that sums us up perfectly.

He is a good reaction saver but He’s a liability for free kicks played in and around the 6yard box , he’s a big lad but never comes off his line to punch or compete for the ball and clear it
I wish he’d play the ball forward quicker too instead of slowing the game down until all our players are marked up

If we had taken our chances first half....Franco and Vip.....the stonewall penalty given it would have been a different story.
We still created a couple of chances 2nd half...Stamenic shot saved tioped round for a corner and Yalcoue who decided to aim for the corner flag
We lost away to a side on the crest if a wave settled both off and on the field with the same managee for rhe past 5 years leadimg them to succesive promotions.
Whilst we have seen how many Chairmen,CEOs DoFs and owners in that period...and are on what our 5th manager?

Given where we were when Matos arrived I dont see why there are so many moans

It’s not
It’s because they don’t stroke the ball sideways and backwards
Coaches can stop this
That doesn’t take 32m
You will note most are not happy including Winston who simply cannot accept that posters they don’t like are right
And I am right

Last night we saw the renaissance of Key evaporate
He’s drop, end of
EOM appallibRobsld simply beyond words

Save your bile for those who deserve it

Finally , Matos mentioned emotion
Did you see any because I didn’t

It’s not about money but coaching

Ours is happy with the effort etc
Sorry , I’ve seen through him now and I’m rather concerned

Ok with you ?

Finally , eom Key Ronald can foxtrot Oscar
Widdell looks a poor buy and so does Walta
Nunes a poor loan
Yalcoure looks lost and Samuel smith clearly a waster loan
Ratter like Joel Ward who’s just topping up his pension
Stamenic is pretty static
Tymon can’t defend , he never could

Not all doom and gloom though as Jesus loves us

And no Wrexham won’t be going up

With the play offs now gone its time to be brave and try to implement a more attacking system away from home which causes problems all around the pitch - our one dimensional, meandering approach at the moment will only ever get us to where we are now in mid table with teams letting us have the ball and capatilising on our mistakes and lacklustre defending.

Time to focus on how we move our game forward, if that means putting in a few youngsters or changing shape I am sure the vast majority of fans would support that rather than continue with the current players & system away from home. This team desperately needs an injection of pace, we really struggle against pace as everyone knows so it would be nice to get some players in who can trouble teams with good old fashioned raw pace to give us a better counter threat.

Matos has done an excellent job since joining and this is not a knee jerk reaction to what we saw last night, more a realisation that things have to change over the next 8 games if we are to build a solid platform for next season.

Its pretty clear that to improve we need to make some player changes as we are carrying to many average players currently that just aren't good enough to get us to the next level. I forecast 59 points about 4 months ago and still think that would be a good return from where we were back then, its not easy being a Swans fan, even the wins are pretty stressful never mind the abject defeats.

I would have taken 3 points from our 2 away games this week with our away form, 2 wins on the road in succession is a big ask for this squad unfortunately.

We have a great platform to build from at home, the challenge is to become more threatening away from the Swansea.com to build a more consistent team....over to you Matos and team please use the remaining games to try something different away from home.

R, I think what WR is saying is that the £32m worth of players give them individuals who can turn games. Look at Broadmead last night for instance. Nobody in our team is guaranteed to score in those positions, look at VIP and Franco last night.

You can only coach so much, then it’s down to individual ability and I’m sad to say we are woefully short in that department. The only player worth his salt week in week out is Galbraith and as I’ve said previously, if we can keep him and sell VIP I’d be delighted. That may sound strange given he’s the leagues top scorer but that’s what I feel.

Actually now, we are in an enviable position where barring an absolute freak of an end of season / total collapse we are safe. We can now play without pressure and as said above, try new things, be more aggressive, take more risks and play fringe players in readiness for next season. We’ve got plenty of experimental games left to plan early for next season.

Lastly, I’m going to say it again, we need better than Galbraith and Cabango. Whether we’ll get that is open to debate but with them we will always be vulnerable.
