Six biggies coming !
 Swansea City : Decisions to be made this week 15th Oct 2024 14:00Swansea City return to action this Saturday at Blackburn Rovers with a string of fixtures thereafter which will most certainly test Luke Williams ability to coach and manage his squad. Eom is out of these next six fixtures as he starts his rehabilitation after an MCL injury playing for South Korea against Jordan in a World Cup Qualifier last week.  0
 Swansea City are so close to having a successful season 17th Oct 2024 08:00It’s Thursday morning heading into what has to be the most boring night after the international break for club fans. Nearly as bad as Wednesday. On Friday the Championship returns, and on Saturday it begins again in earnest. 0
 Luke Williams on restructure & Cabango 18th Oct 2024 08:00On the eve of the Swans game away at Blackburn Rovers, head coach, Luke Williams doesn’t know if either of his on trial players, Adam Reach and Cyrus Christie will sign for the club. Both are out of contract, but it seems the man in charge at Swansea City and the squad has no idea regards what happens next. 1
 Team News : Blackburn Rovers v Swansea City 19th Oct 2024 12:04Swansea City take on Blackburn Rovers at 3pm (UK time) today in the EFL Championship at Ewood Park. A welcome return for club football fans as the roads and motorways are again full of expectant supporters, literally thousand and thousands of them. 0
 Swans lose away : Not good enough and definitely not reassuring 19th Oct 2024 17:56Swansea City fans were in the near five hundred calculated away support at Ewood Park this afternoon. As an adult paying for a match ticket and coach travel they will be closing in on a hundred pounds before refreshments. And we don’t even include a parent and junior ticket in these calculations. This is the commitment of the Jack Army, but was it matched on the field of play ? 0

Since the missed chance we have shown a complete lack of urgency, with our sideways and backwards passes. Does the team realise we are losing, and against a poor side? |
It’s our mindset | |

We simply need coaching
We also need to be brave and that means playing within Grimes
Tiday really shows how he curtails us
People are walking away out of frustration,I think. We can do better even with this squad | |

Feel sorry for the Jacks who travelled all the way up there to be rewarded with that performance. As I said at half time, we are in the poo if we concede. Then we hope for a mistake, a pen, or a rare goal from a central defender. | | | |

Very poor.
Despite all the possession no threat,no urgency and no pressure on their goal.
Like watching paint dry i'm afraid. |  | | |

I'm probably the only one but I thought we were decent the second half, just couldn't score. | | | |

Possession but do you recall their keeper making many saves
It’s appalling yet we accept it and laud our captain and make excuses for a ciach so utterly out of his depth . He’s full of excuses and waffle
Grimes gifted the ball many times today . He does this as a matter of course . He really is the root of it all and the ludicrous idea everything has to go through him .
Tymon has regressed,as has Ronald and others . This is not down to owners however
Allen can do what Grimes does on one leg . I pray we could sell Grimes and bring in what we really need .
We have a terrific goalkeeper however | |

Again,we had enough chances to win that game, it just highlights the fact that we haven’t got enough goal scorers in the side. |  | | |

Put Piroe in there and we are top 6 easily. | | | |

Unsurprising when we’ve got Cullen up front on his own, then Vipotnik who had his usual quiet half hour.
Criminal that these two are our only strikers. God help us if Cabango and Darling run their contracts down. | | | |

A common occurence when you play without a half decent striker. | |

Bianchini ? file in the useless purchases box |
Along with Tymon. Rather see KN 26 there any day. |  |

It’s not just the fact we have no strikers worthy of then amen it’s the way we play
The endless,mindless ,numbing sideways slowly crawling crap that kills
It’s also due to having nobody at all capable of taking free kicks,corners and able to cross a football.
It’s not that difficult

I agree but I think Blackburn were happy to let us have the ball, a dangerous game because any team down one goal could score. Well not us but you get my drift.
I really don’t know what the solution is. It’s easy to say we need a striker but if we had a good one today, would we have scored. I can’t remember Vipotnik touching the ball.
We delivered some reasonable crosses but whoever was there was under too much pressure or they were cleared.
I think we need to be sharper of mind and create more space out wide and in the box. We seem to be always down dead ends. | |

It’s the case we are so utterly predictable .
Ok I’m repeating myself here but it’s relevant
Teams,all of them ,know we play one way,and that is via Grimes ,a player with no pace ,heading ability nor one who is ever likely to offer a shot at goal.
Therefore ,they can rel@x as he is no threat at all. And he isn’t . Forget the praise that some read. It’s a p take from other co@ches who know how to set their team up.
We were never going to score today . Never.
For goodness sake,Yates scored today, a lazy,cowardly ineffective perfiferal player for us .
It is the way we are coached and set up .
Williams is worse than Martin . We desperately need a coach of sone stature and Williams is not.
Our owners deserve derision for his appointment .
It will be hard to saptaybup as there seems no whipping boy team at the moment
Things can change in football,quickly. Cardiff have . We can
It just means we have to be brave ,folks and we can start by being honest with each other . | |

Must have missed those, I was doing other things.
But OHL is right in what he says, very little there I can or would argue with. | |

Did he.
Must have missed them
How many passes did he give to the opposition.
I lost count myself
Did he control the game
Did he drive us forward
Inspire the players
Frankly, to read the love for him indicates just what issues we face | |

You will never recognise anything Matt Grimes does well.
He misplaced 2 passes as I remember.
What is this love for him you talk about? | | | |
