    See above only lost once to them when in the PL.

    Your post 19 has only just appeared on my screen. I will look at it now, thanks for producing it.

    If responding to posts on 606 causes you so much angst, you need help. Strokes start that way.

    I'm not too impressed with the table of results posted above.

    The Championship, for instance, didn't exist in 1959/1960.

    Were there no games between the Clubs pre 1959 ?
    It's possible, I suppose, if Villa were in the old First Division most of the time.

    From the opening post;

    “The Swans and Villa have played each other on 27 occasions, with the Swans winning 9, Villa 15 and 3 draws.

    In fact, the Swans’ recent record against Villa is pretty impressive, unbeaten in 7, and winning each of the last 5 matches.”

    The full record is here:

    That's a bit better than I thought it would be. Thanks for the clarification Taff. Those last 5 matches gives some respectability to the overall position. <ok>

    I’m the total opposite, very laid back.

    Where I see you as condescending and self righteous you must be Dai’s love child!! :emoticon-0148-yes::emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Well, your post above indicates that you are not quite so laid back.

    Until we get a prolific striker then it will always be a hit or miss game whoever we play unfortunately. We dont have anyone who is constant enough that you could feel confident they would score....Tacitly we are very good apart from the finishing which is well below standard and that must be the top priority come January.....

    We still have a hangover from last season with scoring goals, albeit with a different team. That fateful season last season we were joint lowest goals scored with Huddersfield on 28 goals.
    The problem was not helped by the owners allowing us to go into a new season with only one recognised goal scorer, despite protestations and disbelief from fans.

    Villa haven't recovered from losing last seasons play-off final against Fulham imo, Maybe the change in manager will get their season going. There'll be a lot of expectation on the terraces all their fans hoping, most expecting, to see Villa get it together and cruise to an easy victory. I hope we can keep Villa honest and shock them with a win. All I got though is hope because I'm not expecting that to happen.

    I expect we'll stack up in defense relying on counter attack football to snatch a goal or two. We've mostly been superb in defense and we'll need a strong showing there if we want to get anything out of the game. We've been so poor in front of goal though, I cant see us scoring and I think we'll need more than one goal if we are going to beat Villa.

    If we can't stop shooting blanks then a 0-0 draw on the back of a strong performance is the best we can hope for I think.

    My predictions have been **** so far this month so I'm also hoping I'm wrong, again, and we nick 3pts.

    So why wasn’t this rectified in the longer Summer transfer window. Why go half a season under strength & then possibly having to play catch up big time by then!! What makes you think they are going to recruit in January when sometimes it costs even more to??..
