WBA v Swansea City : Match day thread 06:38 - Aug 29 with 25666 viewsModeratorC

When a team has everything to prove a trip to the Hawthorns isn’t the best pick of venue. However, it’s the next game for Swansea City, who played and lost to a Wycombe side on Wednesday in the worst possible fashion.

no its not, but it is still early for the new lads and we can hope they will improve, (and quickly) at the moment our playmaker SLOWS the game down when we should be playing at pace and with the lads that have come in demands that style of play, could see it at the cardiff game should have run them off their feet for the whole game
for me you CANNOT play grimes and fulton together , and unless we bring in someone today/ tomorrow this is what we could have until jan, it might mean our skipper get to spend time on the bench

If ever a game was coming too soon its this one, what short memories we seem to have , we've been playing like this for months, now with so called more attacking flair we just can't change gear from slow to a trot, both in movement and mindset. Its becoming more like groundhog day each game. Prior to last seasons home win v cardiff it was the same and after it we slip back into our old ways .

I buy the SwansTV stream every week unless it’s on Sky. I’m giving it a miss this week. I really, genuinely have had enough.

I have few hobbies or interests (play guitar, walk that’s about it) so football played a big part in my life especially the Swans. I don’t like international football (what England supporter does😂) and I’ve little time for the money crazed PL, especially the top end of the table. So it’s going to be a big wrench. Maybe they’ll do better if I don’t watch 😁

The Vine or The Royal Oak are the most popular ones, both about a 15 min walk from the ground

The non performance last night was a ploy to lull the WBA scout in to a false sense of security you watch.

I can't remember the last home game I missed (cup & league) but thank god last nights game was one that I missed, watching it on TV was painful enough.

As bad as it was to see us not having a single shot on target, and then go on to lose to depleted lower league team, more worrying than that for me was the performance of Nelson and Bianchi, Nelson looked like a defender that can't defend, and Bianchi a winger that can't beat a player and has the pace of a snail on sandpaper, I know that they need time time to settle into the team, but first impressions aren't good, and I hope and pray that both improve significantly, and improve pretty quick, or we are in deep sh*te.

Well we can all be sure it won’t be Grimes. Yet it should be.

What odds on a Fulton - Grimes midfield?

Tajon & Pedersen won’t get a look in.
If he’s true to his word then Vipotnik, Fulton, Abbey and Bianchini.

Some will say Grimes, but he seems untouchable for all previous managers.

His smirky look does my head in so I can't look at him let alone listen to him!

I'm away tomorrow thankfully, so I'll be staying away from teles and updates, hopefully the fishing up on the Wye will cheer me up

T-Joe I get, he looks out of his depth. But Pedersen and Abbey, a totally brand-new CB pairing expected to get comms 100% right between them etc. Feels harsh.

Abbey fell asleep for the goal but I thought he looked ok otherwise. Not his number one job, but I like Pedersen's keen-ness to move the ball quickly - he seems to take one-touch and pass, as opposed to HD and BC who seem to like 4 or 5 touches and take their time by which point the oppo have re-grouped.
