    I have seen the load of **** threads, theres a surprise but we all have our views and opinions, mind I fear some were decided wel before 3 today.

    For me having watched the game, still a way to go, some bad points and some good.

    We stil need, or Bruce needs, to sort out who plays where, Colback is not a left winger so hopefully we will either get one by Wednesday or get a striker and move Sess there.

    Sess again is fine, just not a striker and Gyan still concerns us. Wickham had his best to date, not a lot but at least looking better and Gardner and Oshea just need time to fit.

    O-O is a good point away and after the last two games I think not losing may have been more important to the team than winning, not saying its right but maybe understandable.

    Constructive critisism of the team and Bruce is fine but fat head, he is ****, he is a clown I will ignore if thats OK, just my opinion but not very bright or clever.

    We move on, we hopefully will have at least one new face for Chelsea and I still feel it will click and all will be fine. But hey, half full Syd they call me.

    I'm sure that Billo is a dementor in disguise, Harry Potter fans will know what I'm on about, but for those who are not, they are creatures that are attracted to and thrive on negativity and dispair...

    We dont look bad at the back , but the opposition we have faced so far this season are hardly world beaters.

    We should have scored more than one! Two years bruce has had to sort something out, he is just to defensive. Lacking of any idea going forward

    Yeah i thought it was an even game both sides had chances, Graham for Swansea and Gyan for us. Gyan still doesnt look fully fit to me but at least looked like he cared today. Fair enough his two finishes when one on one were pretty poor but at least they were both on target. Whickham fought when he came on and at least showed that he could be a threat for us. Still need a striker and another creative player but defensively we were reasonably solid.

    It may be a point away from home, but Swansea looked a better team.

    Last season we would have lost that game in the last minute.

    Gyan did not sign until the last day of the transfer window last season. Lets see what squad we end up with then we can make more informed comments.

    I agree, we are poor and look very nervy, no argument but its 3 games in with a new team, things need sorting, Bruce is not going so I can only try and look at progression. I could spend the next 2 weeks shouting Bruce out and dont criticise those who do. For me, and I only speak for me, its wasted effort because the same manager and team will play against Chelsea and I will be in my seat to watch, positives are the only way for me.

    Glass half full eh?

    I agree, he isn't going anywhere till at least JAN. We are just becoming boring to watch. Maybe its they need time to GEL, maybe bruce has no idea, maybe there not bloody good enough?

    All i know is ive got to get up AT 8am on my bloody day off to watch that ****, it really pisses on my day. I feel really sorry for those that made the journey down there.

    Think it's a good time for you to play Chelsea next week , it seems like they're leaking goals for fun lately.

    They were by far the better team in the second half especially; created better chances and fluffed them.

    It's just really annoying that SB has NO IDEA what his team is. He's got player's all over the shop. Richardson here, there and everywhere. Sess.Well he's going to ruin this lad. Gyan looks pissed off already. Elmo, f*****g sh**e. And that includes all of last seaons games. Anton (who I don't mind) a player he was trying to give away now looks like our number 1 defender. I could go on. SB hasn't got a clue.

    I didn't see that myself and thought that the longer the game went on that it was us who were looking the more likely winners.

    We should be going to Swansea expecting to WIN!

    Or is our mentality that we got a point away from home to a team we will be alongside come May?

    I saw the match. They had the better chances! Is everyone who saw it happy?

    Its a 0-0 scraped draw at SWANSEA ffs.

    IF we get beat at home v Chelsea next week, I can already here the excuses - "well. It is Chelsea after all"

    I despair at all the fans who think this is good enough.

    In saying all that. We wont get rid. Because he has spent the money. Because (he tells us) he has players in the pipeline. Anyone coming in - MO'N, Sparky, whoever have no time (and probably no cash) to get anyone in.

    Exactly who is deliriously happy at our position? Our performances? Our squad?

    I have already been informed today it is not my decision wether SB goes or not, but as a SAFC fan, and by posts on here, I'm not alone in my feelings.

    We have him. We cant get rid. January - at this rate - will be far too late.

    he did and needs to get his best team and stick to it. I know that Bruce is far from perfect but he is our manager, like it or not and will be at least until November so I have to support him or stop going, for me, and its just me, they are my only options. I cant stop going so support it is and getting on his back does not help.IMO
