Now only seven points off the play off places where the likes of Millwall and Preston are. What a league this is!
Got the job done tonight. Blackburn are without several players and were disappointing. We beat them comfortably even though too many of our players weren’t at their best and you can include Cabango, Stamenic, Franco, Widell and Galbraith in that.
Good to see Cooper back. He did quite well in his 30 mins considering his lack of match fitness. Cullen though who I do like was awful tonight wasnt he.
I’m enjoying Swansea games again. Matos has changed the whole feeling around the club but I’m not sure why we need 37 coaches. 😂 |

They have an excellent away record. Mainly a defensive approach getting players behind the ball, a low block as it’s now called with the ability to get forward quickly. Counter attacking in a low risk way it probably won’t be pretty. They don’t score or concede too often but they are capable of being a very difficult opponent for us tomorrow. |

He runs around a lot. That’s not in dispute. But as for being “one of the first names on the team sheet?” Hardly.
If he can start to turn his energy and enthusiasm into something that is actually productive then we might have a player on our hands. Meanwhile he’s got a lot to learn. Running around a lot like a Jack Russell on heat isn’t going to cause too many problems for opponents in this League. |

A good young promising player he’s signed at Leyton Orient on loan. Can travel to training from home etc so possibly a good move where he’s guaranteed full games. |

It was a poor decision to sub him. Unnecessary. He looked dejected as he walked back. |

Yes I was too. Seem to recall that West Ham equalised with a late penalty at Upton Park.
I thoroughly enjoyed that season and was at Rotherham when we clinched promotion. Along with around 2000 others. So many 1-0 wins that season. What a defence. Freestone, Bound, Smith, Howard, Jones, Price. |

In the FACup, the first Premier League club to lose to a team from the bottom division in the football league was West Ham Utd
When they played Swansea in 1999. After a 1-1 draw at Upton Park, Martin Thomas got the winner when Jon Coates passed inside to him. That was one of the stand out wins in FA Cup history as WHIU were a top six Premier League club then wifh players like Rio Ferdinand. As we were drawn away and then knocked them out that takes some beating. I’m not sure that we ever got the praise we deserved for that. Defensively that season wifh John hHollins was our best ever.
Macclesfield beating a much changed Palace team at home is right up there. As was the Colchester win against Leeds Utd.
Hereford beating Newcastle also. |

Yes he did miss a penalty in that game. I’m not sure why he took it. There was an explanation at the time but I can’t recall it. Either the usual taker wasn’t on the pitch or no one else had the balls to take it. And the German referee was lucky to get out of the ground in one piece. He was very biased … didn’t he award a dodgy penalty to Yugoslavia as well ?
That Welsh team didn’t really get the recognition it deserved. Toshack and Leighton James were top players and Dai Davies never let Wales down. Another proud Welsh man.
I’ve just read about his heroic efforts at the Bradford City fire 40 years ago. After what he went through with that and his son didn’t he turn to the booze ? I seem to recall but unsure. A good, modest fella apparently, a family man, very sad news, he was a legendary Welsh footballer undoubtedly. |

Was an inspirational captain and leader on that pitch for Wales, leading us to the Euros 1/4 final stage in 1976 where we were very unlucky to lose to Yugoslavia. I was at the game in Cardiff when incidentally the Wales team featured five players who went into manage Swansea City ( a good quiz question that is ).
Apparently he never fully recovered from losing his son to a heart problem when playing football in the garden with him.
Also led Swansea City as our manager taking us to promotion. A dogged determined player. Not too many messed with Yorath. That Leeds mentality of the day I suppose. |

He’s coming back as we have a few injury problems. A capable player but he needs to be more consistent. |

Two very evenly matched teams, I’m still unsure why we played without a striker at home as we lacked a cutting edge. This “false nine “ stuff? Just don’t do it. Simply no need.
Anyway that apart a very hard working performance with a solid contribution from every one out there. And with the play offs now in sight it’s an interesting time.
Pleasing for Jay Fulton. A good pro he’s not going to start too often this season but he’s reliable and experienced. I was right behind his shot that ended up in the net. Dipped and might have taken a deflection?
When your goalkeeper is man of the match that says a lot. On chances if was even but they (WBA) tended to hit the target, we need to start doing that more often now.
Onwards and upwards. Early days of course but our new manager is impressing. |

That’s a well balanced team. With Fulton and Stamenic playing in front of the back four it’ll give our four attacking players licence to get forward. As well as Tyson and Galbraith who will join in when required. |

A decent performance but their goal was disappointing. As always with a long throw in the first contact is crucial and then if you fail to win the first contact you win the second ball and unfortunately we did neither this time butit was a good finish.
Overall it was encouraging though. They are 13 points ahead of third spot already. We have the nucleus of a good, exciting team. Inoussa has something about him but it’s finding the right blend in that midfield now. Galbraith instead of Franco imo with a new right back next month if Key can’t get back to his best. |

Wrexham certainly weren’t poor. As their results have shown they are a competitive Championship outfit
We didn’t allow them to play. To prevent another championship club from having any goal attempts in the first half showed that we defended from the front with superb off the ball defensive work from all of the players. Cabango I thought was immense with the difficult task of keeping Moore quiet.
It seems that we might be playing Coventry at a good time with the disruption they have. It’s a big game for Grimes too as he’s shown his quality again this season. It should be an interesting but winnable game… |

You need a lie down in a dark room
Get a hobby or go to watch football matches
But please try to stop ruining this forum. Apart from you and your nonsense it’s interesting to read the views of others. Seriously take a week off. Better still take up knitting and stop boring people. |

A very good performance and very unlucky not to get the win. Undone by a worldie and some terrible defending from Key. To restrict Preston to five? goal attempts in 90 minutes says a lot about our dominance. Lots to be positive about but the reality is it’s a results business. A few wins and we will soon be back in the top half it’s such a tight league. Certainly no reason to panic as disappointing as it is to lose. |
