    yep theres lots of books out there phil........so please don't stop there with the book naming game, but up it a level and get out of the kids section, that would make it a little more exciting <ok>

    There's a very good book about the 2008 financial crash. Lots of people thought they'd be fine, but it was all a house of cards. It was called Too Big to Fail. Sound familiar?

    that's football for you brother..............I wonder how many clubs we grew up with will be left in twenty years time.......for me football died years ago when the big money came into it so it will be no disaster for me if my club goes bust <ok>..........but there you go enjoy yourselves when the goings good I say.................some of the old boys on here will have had enough crap 2 watch over the years, so for them I hope it lasts a lifetime(the good times), but for the new fans of Swansea <laugh>.....I can tell your previous mancs or pool fans because your bashful charm comes though when things are looking good.
