Did anyone think we would waltz into the prem and beat established teams immediately?

    Haha - sorry PGF, got all a bit Winston Churchill then - just think there is so much to be proud of - almost in the conference a short few years ago, and now playing some of the best teams in the world week in week out! If it was a Hollywood film - people would say it was too far fetched! ;)

    I think it's great to see a promoted team playing possession football. All you need is a goalscorer.

    sorry Jager, I didn't realise Leighton James was a current player hence my lack of knowledge re "our team".
    As previously mentioned, if I have an opinion re Graham i should be allowed to air it or is this forum "thou shalt agree with Jager forum"? i think not.
    if i think Graham was a bad buy i am surely allowed to express my comments am i not?
    my personal opinion is that Lita, Moore and Beattie were terrible if not panic purchases, Graham was a good one but he better pull the preverbial finger out - read above - MY PERSONAL OPINION - you have your own but i shudder to be someone who disagrees with you - NOT.
    My rants re Graham on every post - i think not, i post on relevent threads that i know something about and that is mainly football, oops you only played as a schoolboy not that i hold that against you, in fact i think it is a good thing.
    Your comment re Dai, tbh i havn't seen one of his anti Jenkins posts for ages, and yes i did find them annoying, but i believe we all have the Swans best interests at heart.

    Love me, hate me, i really couldn't give a flying **** what you think so put all my comments on ignore if that makes you happy

    We have two points and beneath us are some established premiership teams with no points at all.

    We can see that there is adjustment needed and work to be done...but our defense is looking better with a great goalkeeper, fine midfield and fluid passing style to build on. For me the glass is half full, not half empty (at this stage).

    The thing is musty people post what they want here, you calling me an ass wipe because you thought I was calling you a lolly pop man shows you up as someone who has no or little knowledge of ex players at our club.

    And yes you can have an opinion on Graham , but you don't keep it to relevant threads , just going on about him at every opportunity , and I do happen to agree with you about Moore and Lita.

    Agree we just need up front to click in a little and we will be scoring those goals, and getting the all important 3 points.

    I'm afraid Musty doesn't know about our team because he's ever been to Swansea.

    The OP is correct. People need a reality check and 1981 is nothing more than a memory. I don't think our start has been stellar but it could have been a lot worse. It's no coincidence that we are still bedding in a new striker who is mainly untested at this level and who is only now getting to grips with our style of play. Couple that with a massive step up in the quality of our opponents week in week out and we were always going to find it difficult. Thing is, most sensible, well grounded fans who've been around a while know this.

    Lots of 'fans' out there are the type that boo the team every time we don't win. Saw it at the Vetch and I'm now witnessing it at the Liberty. Plenty did it yesterday and I was fuming.

    Nothing like success to bring out the plastics.

    Thought I heard a tiny bit of booing at the final whistle yesterday. But I'm sitting close to the away & I came to the decision it was maybe from them, not from home fans. I didn't feel any real negativity in the area I'm sitting, just quiet dissapontment that we didn't get the preferred result. Personally, I was hoping for 4pts by now, but 2 we've got & on reflection yesterday evening, over a few shandies, 2 is better than nowt (thanks to Vorm)!! We've played really well over the three games & for a bit more luck for Graham in the home one's, we could be on six!! But the lad's trying & getting in the positions, so hopefully it'll come. Also our defence is settling down well, after the blitz by City. No shame there, as I type their doing the same to Tottenham, at home!!! Half an hour to go too....

    With Fulham losing as well, we're currently still 15th (watch me jinx us). Hasn't been a bad weekend.....
