The only good thing about last night was the pre match meal with my wife....after Sundays great lucky win I thought we were on the up again but I was so wrong. The slow sideways passing a la Grimes was back and it seemed that only Ronald and O'Brien seemed to have any forward thinking passion in them. Service to Vipotnik was very poor and yet he is a scapegoat and was replaced by Bianchini. Why not keep both on the pitch...... LW scurrying down the tunnel at full time was pathetic. Why doesnt he just bite the bullet and walk? Unfortunately football managers always seem to wait for a pay off for failure.
i think part of the problem with us is that our home games have become boring and very repetitive. Very little goalmouth action and pace from our players. Slow slow football . Perhaps now that our tactics have got to change as MG has left support will increase a bit
10 points as long as we play like we did in the second half yesterday...fighting spirit none of the namby pamby slow sideways backwards stuff we have been seeing recently
50 points should keep us safe. Start Sunday in a game which means that we are underdogs. Lets upset the applecart as so many teams do and have done to us over the years. We have not won in 6 games so that record must be broken then
Believe it or not we have sold over 1800 tickets so far even though we are playing #### Perhaps its the early ko or the train ride or maybe belief that we must be a better team than shown before the turn of the year.
That was a painful watch on Saturday yet again,. Slow slow stop backwards and repeat. Has LW lost the players? I think so. Can the same players play better? Yes.
At the end of that game yesterday a couple of the players not all and the manager ventured towards us fans but not too close clapping us as they do some had claps back but there were many who shouted abuse or whatever in their direction....they soon rushed off to the dressing room and safety. Hull was a poor performance....Portsmouth slightly worse but last nights? If LW has lost the players why doesnt he resign? No chance of that though there is money at stake here.
agree Onehunglow....a chance to make some money for the coffers and perhaps get a televised home draw against one of the big boys in the next round ...if we put out a strong side though otherwise a defeat.
just read somewhere that Southampton have only sold about 10000 tickets for the match including approx 600 to us. They have moved our fans to the other side of the ground and are closing one stand for the game. Should be a cracking atmosphere....not
What is it with Sky and the football league? Lets have a look at the fixture lists and pick the awkward long ones for early or late kick offs. The ones where you can catch a train to the game but sorry there are no trains for the return journey. For us on Saturday in particular its black friday weekend so numbers will be down anyway. Leaving Swansea at 4am on Saturday should mean we will miss much of the holiday traffic on the way up at least. A comfortable win for us should make the trip more enjoyable so please Swans turn up!!!
If the clubs official coaches have to have security on them these people will have to be paid the correct rate per hour by law?...That cost would have to be factored in to the price.so for example a 15 hour shift at £14 per hour would be £210 without the cost of the drivers, fuel etc. When Swans travel did the coaches the stewards went free though there were never any problems on the coaches. Can the same be said now?
Will 4000 fans really want to travel down to see this game though? We have the derby the week after and we would have had the Portsmouth game a few days earlier. Many of our fan base will have to pick and choose as following your football team home or away is not a cheap treat anymore.
Kids for a quid on a regular basis only in the South Stand which is looking more empty every home game which should also improve the atmosphere in the ground. Open the ticket office up more often and allow cash sales of tickets and in the club shop.
If you go back in time over many years our attendances were ok in promotion years but for the last few games there would be sell outs as fans wanted to say they were there....if we start to rise towards the play off spots our attendances will rise although SKY may have a say in that.
Luton will sell out as the away end only holds about 1200....not the best of grounds or views. Very compact and dont try to sit down to watch the game.....
