    To me , what happened the time just previous to our last 4 games or so were injuries . But when we got everyone back , Clement and the team dug in and pull us back .

    Yes but if Hull who were two points ahead never bottled it then we could have won all our remaining games 10 - 0 and still gone down......The majority on here thought our time in the premiership was numbered, we were convinced of it......We cant afford to get in that position again and we need investment in the playing side and we need Jenkins to step down.....

    Most of our problems stem from getting 69 goals scored on us , even with our last 4 games giving up 1 goal in total . How to fix the problem is pretty easy IMO , give one manager a chance and stay out of on the pitch matters . The board and owners are 100% responable for our almost demise . The board , owners and Supporters trust all need to work on their share of the sh!t they created and start to become part of the solution and not the problem . It's what we need , even more than transfers .

    Dai, I don't disagree with you, in fact I do agree.

    However, we have more Johnny Come Lately fans who, with the greatest respect, don't have the scars on their backs from having supported us for example in the old Fourth Division, or when we were in the old First Division, through the Petty period, to the Hull match - and so will probably be more in relief mode than those of us who have been die-hards through the grim periods.

    Haven't been following the thread on this but the plastics are everywhere. I was at the dinner last night and the number of hangers on who have 'always been Swans fans' (yeah right) was incredible. Mal Pope is one - he used to take the piss out of me going down to watch us play some god forsaken northern town on a windy, rainy night. Now, all of a sudden, he's Mister Swansea and writes about 'his team' in the Evening Post. <doh>

    Oh, and we should win this one comfortably - I'm going for 3-0.

    iI was nice to see Ugo and Clair there alongside Siggy , I bet James was jealous though <whistle>,IMO I wonder I think there should be some recognition for the team of volunteers who without fail organise and travel to all ends of the country ensuring that the Official Travel club provides a service .If not then heres mine ,
    Thanks Ugo , where would we be without you <applause>

    .

    That's the same for every club, When Palace were down there when Leicester were down there, they moved up as we and Hull lost a few and they won a few, we all get by on the strength of bad results for other teams other wise the only other alternative is to win every game then you don't have to rely on what happens to others. It is the same for every team in evrey position every season

    Well, thankfully, all the guys returned safely from their short getaway to Ibiza - let's hope the late nights & drink don't affect their performance on Sunday....... :emoticon-0104-surpr

    They were due back in training on Wed at 1.30. All reported back fine and on time. The way the media reported it looked like a club paid for outing which it was not. Also good to see they all get on well enough to go away on holiday together.

    Hmm, if they get stuffed by Albion tomorrow, I suspect there will be a slightly different, and less accommodating, reaction hereabouts.

    Agreed. There is no excuse not to go for it tomorrow. The fans deserve effort at the very least.

    Vetch - you are surely not suggesting that us Swans fans are not always consistent in our views but are fair weather supporters..... <laugh>

    In normal circumstances I would agree, but after what they did these last 4 games......

    An ice cream or two in Joe's would have been sufficient, washed down with a pint or two of Bass at the White Swan. <cheers>
    Followed by a late night skinny dip at Bracelet Bay to put the icing on the cake. Or whatever ? <smooch>
    Ah, those happy, carefree, halcyon, pre Brexit days ? <laugh>
