As things stand
And yes the under 21 players can of course play if / when selected |

It was never previously a problem or an issue. Playing in our Welsh Cup and in Europe. Believe what you want to but it would be good for our club and for welsh football to have good representation in Europe. My one experience of it ( Malmo ) was amazing. Not the gsme but the whole trip and memory.
There’s no guarantee we would qualify of course. Wrexham and to a lesser extent Newport and Cardiff might have something to say too. |

Of course you can
46 league
Usually 3/4/5 league/fa cup games
4 games to win welsh cup
55 games in 10 months. No problem.
And we could utilise our fringe players to get through the first game or two

100% yes.
It must be on the strict understanding that it doesn’t affect our EFL status. Now or in the future.
But of course we should be in our own domestic cup especially with European qualification a good possibility |

I’d like to see Luke stay. We’ve had a decent season all things considered and only 2/3 weeks ago we played some lovely football against an in form QPR. That’s our way of playing. Possession with purpose.
Two of the recent performances haven’t been acceptable. Portsmouth was awful and so was Southampton although that game illustrated how stretched our first team squad is. I’m not looking to blame the manager for that. The problems run far deeper.
Review things at the end of the season as it looks as though we have enough in the tank to stay clear of the relegation scrap. |

Some laughable suggestions here fair play.
Tony Mowbray, Ian Holloway, Craig Bellamy etc. Ignorance is bliss as they say. 
Not as good as the Anthony Wright suggestion though. |

A disappointing, poor showing from us today which underlined how weak our squad is. And the gulf in class between a ( poor ) Premier league team a mid table championship outfit.
Naughton and Christie have been excellent pros but look finished at this level. Naughton could and should have done better for their 2nd and 3rd goals. Our keeper has also enjoyed a good career but he looked so short of match sharpness and wasn’t good enough today although redeemed himself late on. Defensively we weren’t up to it without Cabango and Darling and it could have been a lot worse.
Luckily we only have Cardiff to play next 😉 |

Next time you go to a game, watch the movement of the players off the ball. Constantly on the move to make angles to receive passes and to get away from markers. You can’t always see this on TV but it might help you realise how difficult it can be to keep possession of the ball. And how fit you need to be. With a football brain. |

No just a Swansea City fan who wants us to win every game we play. I’m not jumping on the bandwagon of disliking an employee for some misguided naive comments. That’s trivial stuff really. |

Win or lose I’m hoping for a good solid performance that fans will be proud of. One that shows commitment pride and togetherness . Luke has done well so far so let’s hope it continues. |

“ He would take us up in two seasons that’s for sure “
For sure? I’d disagree with that. It would depend on many things. This team isn’t getting promoted regardless of who the manager is. He simply isn’t the right fit for Swansea in any case.
He won’t be coming here so it’s a pointless discussion really. |

Absolutely not. Not under any circumstances.
He would be a good fit at certain clubs but not ours. Defensively organised but that style of football belongs in the 1950s when your big centre forward could barge the keeper into the net and get away with it. Please god no. |

All fit players are in contention for selection. I repeat after 8 days without a game they will be ready. There is no need to “ rest “ anyone unless there are any ongoing niggling injury issues. Our squad isn’t strong enough to make too many changes without significantly weakening the team. I suspect that some regular starters might be on the bench but I hope I’m wrong. |

Resting players who have not played for 8 days?
It’s the FA Cup not the Pontins Midland Reserve cup.
Lots of money and pride at stake.
As for Southampton their confidence is low and the crowd will be quiet and small comparatively so it’s a good time to play them. We owe it to our fans and club to give it the best shot.
Resting players ? They are young footballers. Get out there and do your job. |

We have only 20 league games left to play in 4 months with just a handful of midweek fixtures.
This is the FA Cup. It’s a chance to go through and to generate some excitement around the club with the possibility of making further progress
The players do not need a rest. They prefer to be playing games. Ronald looks jaded but that’s because he’s inconsistent with his performances. He’s fit and young. Play a strong team to give ourselves a chance of going through. |

Reply | Is Peart Harris available to buy,?
at 17:51 7 Jan 2025
Peart-Harris would be a good acquisition. Definitely got something about him. And he’s young enough to continue an upward trajectory in terms of improvement as he gains experience. Depends on his wage expectation but you sense that he is a London lad who might not be too keen on the move. |

It’s the FA Cup. Play our strongest team and go for it. It’s that simple. If we lose let’s make sure we go down fighting and give it the best shot possible. Other views are available. |

Ok so as I suspected, no one stayed away purely as a direct consequence of any remarks that Luke had made. |

The concept of staying away because the manager has said something you don’t approve of is bizarre.
That’s not what a fan would do is it. You might not enjoy the style of football and I know for example that some fans didn’t attend as much when Sousa was manager as the defensive minded football was insipid and lacked flair with goalmouth action almost non existent
I think other factors against West Brom would and did influence the attendance as we have highlighted. But can anyone come forward and say that they stayed away SOLELY because of some misguided remarks from our rather inexperienced manager who is otherwise doing a fine job on balance? |
