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

I meant for West Brom game Williams must be the only one to rates grimes and Fulton together
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 .

Momentum Starting a game at half cock is always risky This is down to ciach and captain
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 😁
Was looking forward to this one as my first away of the season and first trip to the Hawthorns, not so sure now! Too late as its all booked, so any tips on pubs in the are etc?

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

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.

Cheaper than replacing him ?
God knows,matey It’s painful to watch him,isn’t it. Is it a prerequisite now to “ love the city,fans,club and the station cat ,to get a contract We shouldn’t be a pension top up club .

Enjoy 👍

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.
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.
