    No , we've got Bony , Shelvey, Michu and Danny's too nice a guy to score against his old club , (I could have left out against his old club but that would be cruel ):D

    To be fair, it was a given. You should have seen the state of the opposition. <laugh>

    So far our away games have been Chelsea, Man City, Newcastle, Everton, Southampton, Spurs and Arsenal - not a selection that any team outside of the top three or four would feel confident of picking up many points. Apart from a poor performance at Southampton, where we lost 4-1, our biggest defeat has been 2 -0. Swansea (no disrespect!) are the first team in the bottom half of the table that we've played away so it will be interesting to see how we get on. I think it should be a good game and really could go either way.

    well we seem to be getting all the tough away matches out the way early.. a point would be excellent, we don't draw many games.

    Even without a striker (if Michu doesn't play) you're a bit like Arsenal as the midfield seems to have goals in them.

    Only Southampton have really turned us over, the bookies will probably go for a narrow home win. Lauro says 1-1

    It was Jay Simpson who equalized at your place last match & our away unbeaten run in 2011 came to an end at Bristol City, there was nothing riding on the game and we lost 3-0 - nobody was bothering to try!

    But swans don't quack Dutch, they hiss. Unless they're mute swans in which case they don't make a lot of sound at all.

    Coordinated self-deprecating irony. Communication's our bag.

    Hard one to call really ,Newcastle were well beaten and every thing clicked for us on the night., our home form needs to improve dramatically and no offence I would like to think we can win this one but as you've pointed out , you've played some really stiff opposition and yet you're above us so hard game but a win for us .<ok>

    Gower scored 1st for us and we could have won but for some fine goal keeping , never mind it all ended up nicely so they say

    Hmmm.... didn't realise the tough ride that Hull have had away from home so far. Still think that this is a game we should win though. If our lads aren't on a high after last week then there's something wrong with them.

    I'd have thought with your user name your geography would be a bit stronger :grin:how you found the Antarctic must have been very fortuitous ,we're in South Wales not the bloody north , you'd better have another look at your travel arrangements if you intend coming down tomorrow :D

    I deal in long distances so in my mind yours to The Wirral is not far, as the Swan flies.

    Finding the Antarctic was a piece of piss. Keep heading south, you can't miss it. Finding South Georgia on a raft. Now that was a challenge.
