It’s all here, the English Covid free environment on toast with some good old dripping. Have it with some hock or lamb replacement therapy. Roll on the floor with your positive nouns.It’s the match day thread. It’s a pay on the day away day that day.
https://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/football/swanseacity/news/56758 David Webb will be the referee when Swansea City take on Huddersfield Town at the John Smith’s Stadium on Saturday (3pm). The County Durham official will be taking charge of a Swans game for the third time this season, having had the whistle for the opening-day defeat at Blackburn and the away win at Barnsley. Webb was at the helm of two Swans games last season, awarding a key late spot-kick for Andre Ayew to net a late winner at Stoke, and overseeing a goalless draw against Reading. He will be assisted by Adam Crysell and Matthew Mcgrath, while Neil Hair will be the fourth official.
The game is now pay on the day. It’s only a fiver !

I have to say, when Beckham broke in the first team at Man Utd he had no history. But history is made today from how you act and what you do. He is putting together a team that could well storm the championship next season if he can retain those key players.
I hope you are right Keith…..I’m still not convinced but let’s hope he does my point about history was to question why we seem not to be attracting Geuhi like players

Well we attracted Rhys Williams, which didn't turn out well

It’s odd mate because the swans made Chelsea an absolute fortune 25M ? When he left us and then went to Chelsea. Same for Rhian Brewster. I think Rhys Williams was our similar signing but it went wrong, he isn’t a left sided defender. He looked atrocious in that position, slow, uninterested etc, Therefore he isn’t good enough to fit in to Martin’s vision for him. Laird was a success for a while.
I can still see Martin getting this right, we won’t go down, and many will say we won’t go up. Reminds me a bit like the Sousa season where he ambled to a very good finish. Had we gone up that season it would have been a calamity. It s all about next season for me, but we have to retain the real talent we have, Downes, Ntcham, Piroe being the prime players.
A great believer in taking anything you like to wherever you want to.

Ok fella I’ll carry on supporting my team win, lose or draw and you can keep slating them. ðŸ‘🻠And thinking you were right all along.
I praise when they are deserving of praise, I criticise when they are deserving of criticism. That’s what being a football supporter is all about. This new wave of positive spin on all situations is completely unnatural and something I’ve not encountered in my 25 years following the club, it’s a completely new phenomenon.
Usually the mood and discussion is moulded by what happens on the pitch and the results and performances we are getting. This season is a whole new set of rules and it’s a set I don’t subscribe to.
You keep lying about posters though and having a heart attack everyone mentions something you feel isn’t insanely positive.

This in a “nutshell” I think the majority of fans will agree with this.👌

At the start of the season, sure.
Fast forward to January and Manchester United have recalled Laird and sent him out to a different team in the same league and Rhys Williams' reputation and value has plummeted.
I suspect we've lost whatever reputation we built up after doing so well for Gallagher, Gibbs-White, Brewster and Guehi in recent seasons.
Looking at some of the comments from the first half yesterday, especially form Dumb and Dumber, you would think we were getting annihilated. Then when I spoke to fans who actually attended the game, it wasn't so. Anything to criticise us with Dumb and Dumber. Keep off the forum on match days is best for you two.

the point being Keith is yes Chelsea benefitted but would they be so keen to loan us this season.... They got that benefit as a result of our previous set up

They have two excellent defenders out at Coventry, I can see more coming from those two, especially Salter. Summer maybe. Getting Laird from Man Utd was a coup for me, and Williams from Liverpool. Had we been in the top eight I’m certain Laird would have stayed.
When the best clubs in the country are happy to see their young bright stars come to us, I’m certain Man City will be added to the list soon. It’s better with all due respects to Britton and Tate as an example who failed at their clubs but came good.
Big test next Saturday, we need to transform our form from yesterday to that game.
Two weeks to go mind 😉

Yesterday second half saw us mile more positive. We need to keep that momentum up. We need to start like that and screw them. That is down to the coach.
Good to see we can rely on super fans like bobblehat.The club is so blessed.

And therein lies the problem. The better we do and they look the higher the likelihood of them being poached.

And it all goes to show it is all about the Owners. Decent offers sees us sell.
Brentford never complained about decent offers for their players. They sold their best and still managed to build year on year. It's next to impossible at this level to stop your stars from leaving, the challenge is for recruitment and development to outpace the losses, and get good fees as you go.
Making profits on player trading is vital to paying the wages Championship teams are offering. Bang average sides like Reading spend over 200% their income on wages. That's the environment we're competing in for signatures.

We know that. Most people with a brain know that.
The concept still eludes Perchy.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Why be critical of a season where we are 17th come January? The lowest we have been at this point for about 12 years?
Because they are fans of the club and don’t like to see it struggling I would have thought. Going to games is an irrelevance.

From memory Potter had a difficult spell early in his reign. Bottom half in the leagues. Losing at home and away. He did then get a very solid run at home unbeaten but was dogged by often unlucky way defeats. This may have been because of playing unconvincing players like McKay Asoro and Celina at times.
