The swans are on a run of four defeats, no goals and seemingly have lost all confidence in themselves and how to deliver goals and points. Millwall are on a healthy run of form.
Nailed on home win then eh ?
EFL Championship Saturday 10th April 2021 The New Den Kick off 12.30pm or maybe it’s 1pm

The swans are entering record breaking territory for all the wrong reasons. Here we go ...
Longest losing streak (League): 9 matches, 26 January 1991 to 19 March 1991 Longest non-scoring run (League): 6 matches, 6 February 1996 to 24 February 1996
Who would have thought it, it’s strange how we all take things for granted when they are going well, and even stranger the people who were being hailed as the new dawn in Swansea City’s recent history are two months later being shouted down - and are very persona non grata.
Millwall on the other hand have won their last three games.
So what’s going on ? Well, it’s like this. When you don’t score goals you draw games, when you don’t score goals and let them in you lose games. When you aren’t good enough to create chances to score goals and the other team does you lose games. If you are both shite, you draw games, but as we have seen you also lose games. This isn’t a conundrum, it’s what happens when your luck runs out, your heads are down and you feel sorry for yourself. Then you look at your bank balance, shrug your shoulders and play on your Xbox or PlayStation. It’s a great life being a loser.
A look back in anger
That’s a decent side.
Let’s go back to 2007 and Millwall v Swansea at the New Den. I chose this hame as I thought Kevin Austin was superb playing in this game. As we know he died of pancreatic cancer in 2018. Solid as a rock. Very dodgy penalty awarded against the swans, but still got the point.
Report - Roberto Martinez’s Swans extended their unbeaten run to eight games thanks to an influential performance from Paul Anderson. The on-loan Liverpool winger created the opening goal when his shot was parried into the path of Jason Scotland and the striker steered home. Millwall, under the guidance of new boss Jackett, responded through Zak Whitbread, and they went ahead 20 minutes from time thanks to Alan Dunne’s penalty. But Anderson had the final word, combining with Scotland to make it 2-2 on 78 minutes. The goal is credited to Darryl Duffy.

It's a beautiful morning here on the leisure peninsular. It's very chilly and Ive decided not to try my new expensive 5mm wet suit in the 9 degree Irish Sea. If you're reading this Keith,I bluddy envy you, you bugger.
I'm positive about today anyway which is bad news for the team really.
I can see us turning things around and we'll see that cheeky grin of Steve's seeing us through the afternoon until witnessing those poor horses mercilessly flogged 4/12 miles over criminally high fences for the entertainment of clown hoping to get something for nothing.
No would be the day to turn things around, beofre we slip out of the play offs. We know we can do it. AC reckons the players believe unfalteringly, if so it's time to stand up and prove it,

A point would be a good result. We have proved this season we can beat anyone in this div. We are still in with a good shout. Let's get behind the club,I fed up of so called fans knocking the club all these time Coys

We are not knocking the club we are knocking the performances.
Now then, he started Whittaker last time but out of position and now he's dropped him again. Give the boy a bloody chance.

Roberts and Cabango on the bench too. This had better work.
Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Roberts on the bench????
And Cabango ... so no point throw ins to the box as there’ll be no one on the end of them. If this line up doesn’t work surely Cooper will be out of the door before he leaves the Den.

Much as it disappoints you, I wouldn't bank on it.

We have never had anybody to get on the end of long throws. Cooper can't win if he sticks to wing backs,fans say no plan n b. If changes he's still wrong! In fairness Roberts needs a rest.perhaps he s got one eye on the Play offs and wants to keep players fresh

Although me and doc argued regarding this on the other thread, I cannot understand Cooper’s reluctance to play Cabango in a two.
Can understand in a three to a certain extent.

Interesting he's stuck with four at back. I don't mind him giving Routledge a go either. Yes, he's a relic, but he's a relic from an era where we actually passed and moved and were comfortable with the ball at feet.
Maybe he can lead by example and remind the others that the football isn't a hot potato to be aimlessly punted as soon as it is received.

A bit of sense at last. I don't think Millwood away is the place to throw a youngster in. Rutledge has never let us down in fairness.
