    The doors might be closed but it's not exactly an enclosed stadium. You could watch it from across the road.

    Cheers Never <ok> seen Atomic Blonde before, thought the acting was very stimulating.

    Watched Red Sparrow instead, purely due to my interest in birds <laugh>. Not bad, the things people have to do to stop the CIA fekking up the world. That Jennifer Lawrence has been eating well since the Hunger Games hasn't she?

    Thanks Swanee, good list <ok> but seen them all except Tour De Pharmacy. Looks a right grin so I'll give it a watch later.

    Swans 1 Newport 0

    Link to highlights



    No shots on goal from Newport and lots of staunch defending from Newport but no killer touch from us

    It looked like lots of crosses ( shows how starved we've been ) , especially from the right and it looked like with Routledge playing was playing as a wing back ,sterner tests to come and less than 3 weeks to the season I wonder how many of the old guard will still be with us by then .

    I know it was only Newport, looks like he could be a signing, doesn't he.

    Looks like he wants more width, just need a striker to put some of the balls into the box away then.

    Looking at the traveling squad, just think we look super lightweight in the centre of midfield and also up top is both Ayews leave, My other and biggest worry is we have to sorry excuses for goal keepers going in to the start of this season. Nordsfeldt couldn't catch a cold when it comes to crosses, which he will surely get lots of in the championship and Mulder hasn't played any sort of competitive football in however long must be over a year.

    So whilst the squad has some half tidy additions, that isn't one that will be anywhere near the play offs, yet alone automatic. Just hope it is enough to keep us in the league.

    Swansea City squad to tour Austria and Germany: Kristoffer Nordfeldt, Erwin Mulder, Steven Benda, Kyle Naughton, Connor Roberts, Federico Fernandez, Jordi Amat, Mike van der Hoorn, Cian Harries, Joe Rodon, Aaron Lewis, Tom Carroll, Matt Grimes, Jay Fulton, Leroy Fer, Yan Dhanda, Adnan Maric, Joel Asoro, Dan James, Luciano Narsingh, Wayne Routledge, Nathan Dyer, Jefferson Montero, Ryan Blair, Oli McBurnie, Jordan Ayew, Andre Ayew.
    Did play couple of games for the under 23's but that's it. Benda has gone as third keeper and whilst he put in some good performances for the under 23's he's only 19 and I thought Zabret might have gone instead. Another strange one is that Dhanda is shown in the under 23 squad on the Swans site and travels. Govea who is shown in the first team squad doesn't.

    Genoa will be a good test as too how this team will do in the Championship, I'm not expecting us to beat Genoa, but hopefully it will be close.............<ok>
