I still find it amazing that we make news around the World.
From where we were, even 7 or 8 years ago, where it would take people with an excellent knowledge of football, to many forms of media and fans knowing about us and even falling in love with the club.

If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious.

It's certainly good to see the extra coverage, but I don't think the analysis of this year's form is particularly accurate.

Then followed two losses to undefeated Chelsea and the high-flying Southampton Saints. There’s no shame in either of those but a nil-nil draw to Sunderland is indicative of the weaknesses the club has. Next was a 2-2 draw against a Newcastle side finding its form and a loss to Stoke at Britannia. Stoke have a fierce reputation at home, it should be said. Then came a win over little Leicester and finally a 0-0 draw against former teammate Roberto Martinez’s Everton. This is actually a lackluster performance rather than a season-ending 5th place performance.

Total crap by somebody who does not know the circumstances surrounding some of those results.

According to that, Brendan taught Roberto everything he knows.

Well researched there that man

"If you ladies leave my island, if you survive recruit training, you will be a weapon. You will be a minister of death praying for war. But until that day you are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human furcking beings! You are nothing but unorganized, grabastic pieces of amphibian sh1t! Because I am hard, you will not like me. But the more you hate me the more you will learn."

Interesting the author thinks Martinez' management style is a legacy of his time under Brendan Rogers (LOL)

And cut out that attack, attack, attack, Garry, you're leaving us exposed at the back. Oh, wait a minute, we've got the second lowest 'goals against' total in the Premier League....

What a totally crap article by a clueless Yank (I imagine Dav is blushing reading it). At least try and research some of your basic facts before penning your next serving of dross, good boy.

Oh yeah, and we got to 18 points by, most recently, beating Arsenal. Forgot that, did you?

It's great for the club to be known on a global scale but it's a terrible article full of strange and incorrect statements.

"Then followed two losses to undefeated Chelsea and the high-flying Southampton Saints. There’s no shame in either of those but a nil-nil draw to Sunderland is indicative of the weaknesses the club has"... So did we lose or draw? 1-0 is not exactly a bad loss. 3-0 or 4-0 on the other hand...

"...emphasizes attacking play at the expense of a tight midfield. This leaves them vulnerable in the back."... We have a good goal difference and one of the best defensive records in the league so far.

You can tell it was written by an American... Referring to Southampton as Southampton Saints. I guess we're the Swansea Swans then?

Never said it was a well written or researched article.
Just amazed (still) everyone and their pup wants to write about us, even if they're wrong in their facts. Although some comments are really funny.

The one thing I admire about British football writers is that they are always such careful researchers, so unbiased, and so amazingly accurate in everything they right.

I'm envious.

My personal favourite was "The Swans beat Manchester United in the opener but United are so struggling for form amidst the myriad of changes that a win at Old Trafford is hardly news anymore."

Ok, theyve had better days, but we tore up the script that day, and we're the only team to win there this season!
