    Their both good enough for this league and if they are for sale and sold then they'll end up playing for one or two of our rivals .Dan James has showed he can virtually last a full game but needs some fine tuning but I've been impressed with him ,he's made a better impact at this level than I thought he would but I agree about Dyer and especially Routledge who's a clever player and always gives 100 %

    Well I don’t give a toss what you think, so we’re in the same boat.

    My lad like James, says he should play more, but he shares my view on Dyer and Routs being our best options.

    I’d give James a run out on Saturday along with Montero.

    After we scored out fourth we didn't really do a lot after that. Whether we took our foot off the gas I'm not sure, but there were a few players clearly tiring and we could have made some substitutions earlier. Nevertheless a great away win to start off 2019, the big difference being we actually took our chances for a change. Now lets beat Aston Villa on Saturday and get a big team at The Liberty!

    Delightful day out for the Jack Army, almost two thousand of us behind the goal in Reading’s stadium in the middle of nowhere, after a comparatively short trip up the motorway.
    Five changes again as Potter rested players. Notable absence was Bony, is he on his way out?
    The fun started as early as two mins when McBurnie headed in from a Naughton cross and the pattern of domination was set. Further goals from Roberts and Van der Hoorn by half time and we were cruising.
    A penalty a few minutes into the second half after Routledge was brought down, McBurnie grabbed his brace and there was no way back for Reading.
    Foot off the gas though as we tired, and Reading started to play with some neat inter-passing football and we came under pressure.
    They scored on 77 mins through sub Harriet but it was too little too late.
    A happy New Year’s Day then for all Swans fans, let’s hope we can continue as we’ve started and move on up the table.

    That'll teach you for being stubborn and not using the stair lift like the rest of us oldies.

    I'm not, it's not like he's either honest or moral anyway. Now it's whether he's totally deluded saying this or has absolutely no respect for the fans by continuing to bullshit us. Or both.

    Both I'd say , but as long as the dwindling few are still condoning his actions then the more likely he'll hang around .

    I never understand the continuing hate towards Huw......If it was not for him we may well not have a club to support. He seems to get all the blame for everything that goes on at the club as if he is the only one that makes the decisions..<laugh> He is the chairman appointed, He is a minor shareholder and he has a board of directors who has a big say at the club......He was the best thing since sliced bread when we were coming through the leagues..<laugh>.....The man is Swansea through and through and a part of a team that run the club and not the one who decides everything on his own......We have been lucky to have a loyal chairman.....

    But do you really know him. Or do you listen to the crap by fans who dont have a clue what his job is......It is not as if he is one of these chairmen who owns the club lock stock and barrel......He is an appointed chairman, a figurehead who attends chairman's meetings and when given the go ahead tries to get players that the board and manager have agreed on, A very hard job to do for all chairmen.....We dont give enough credit to what he does at the club....

    You never have Dai. Here’s some of your previous pearls of wisdom <laugh>

    "I deal in facts not fiction. believe all jenkins spin all you like as after all he is the master but facts prove him wrong, managers prove him wrong, players prove him wrong, chief scouts prove him wrong. i only hope he does not fall out with buck as even he will be miffed if we are challenging and he needs his backing for the final push. my bet is he wont change and we finish just outside the playoffs again just enough to keep some fans happy...."

    "There is no way we will ever get to the premiership under Jenkins and thats a fact. .... a very poor unambitious chairman. i bet anyone that we will again fail to reach the playoffs again this season but will do enough for the jenkins worshipers deluded as they are to blame everything else instead of the very man that has ruined our chances for the last few seasons. like someone once said on here ....i dont think jenkins ever want us in the premiership and of course he was spot on...watch this space as once again i am proved right.."

    "im a realist and dont listen to our useless spin from skinflint jenkins, carry on i dont care but im always proved right, jinks makes sure of that every season...4th my foot take a look behind and tell me we will stay there for long...i dont think so. teams are now queuing up to pass us and leave us for dust, i will be proved right again as i always am and like it always is every season the deluded spin believers will yet again will be let down for being sooooooooooooooo gullible..watch this space."

    "we are not that ambitious"

    "unfortunately we have jinks who cant see further than his nose ... we will fizzle out of the top 6....will i be right again."

    "game over well played boro, at the moment the possession is 60/40 to the swans we never learn and promotion is just a dream as every season at this time we slip slide away.. 10 wins we need .. we are having a larf... "

    "The Chairman is a joke and of course we will miss out on auto now and dont be so sure of a playoff place either."

    ".. every fan wants to win but some are being realistic and some have those rose tinted glasses firmly fixed on their head. im in the category that its possible but unlikely as there are some teams with better players , better organized and better strike force. norwich are better than us the way they grind out results, they have grant Holt who will run rings around us at the moment and they play good football. they will grind out a result of some kind at the liberty that will be enough"

    "norwich with grant Holt will get something from us at the liberty, he is a proper teams striker that we should have had....they are peaking at the right time and will soon put daylight between us and the rest,,,,big club that have gone about things the right way."

    "sorry if we are ever going to achieve something then jinks needs to go.."

    "draw game at best for the swans, norwich are showing us and others how to give everything for the final push. norwich will get at least a point and could easily get the three points as their players are more committed than ours..."

    I know enough to say that he say that he's a lying unscrupulous extremely lucky individual who 's made millions on the backs of others efforts , he's had his time but like all leeches he doesn't know when its time to go .But I suppose in your dreamlike state that's all bollocks and that's your opinion ,one I vehemently disagree with
