    Living Wage

    I mean a proper education not meaningless A levels and degrees. I agree that some do work hard and deserve more, but youngsters in general these days seem to be a bit lacking in common sense. I know many people with degrees that just come across as plain stupid. The vast majority of people I see...

    Living Wage

    The solution to that is not to have tax credits. Let the market work it out. Those companies maybe rely on the tax credits, but would pay more if they weren't available. Maybe people also need to take more responsibility for making themselves better skilled. Many minimum wage workers have no...

    Match Day Thread Villa v Swans

    43 points and well on our way to our best ever finish in PL. Well done Monk. Well done the players.

    Has Leon Britton

    It's all over for Leon. We have better players now and he's getting too old. Harsh, but that's life.

    Living Wage

    Surely you should be paid based on your contribution not based on what others earn. Should a cleaner at Man City earn more than a cleaner at Bonymaen FC just because Man City have well-paid players? If they don't like the wage they can just leave and get another job. That's what I'd do.

    Lawrenson and his predictions

    No idea why some of you get so upset. Why do you care what one person thinks of the Swans. We've proved him wrong, and that's all that matters. If you get angry with everyone that doesn't think like you, you'll spend your whole life being angry. Just ignore him. He's one person out of over 7...

    Southampton v Swansea

    I think we're going through a bad patch that will continue. Team doesn't seem to have much confidence, not playing well, and best players gone or injured. I think we could lose 4-0. All depends on how they play on the day. We are quite inconsistent, so I wouldn't be surprised if we won 1-0 or...

    Stadium Expansion

    That is the best long-term solution, or buying the Liberty from the council. But do we have enough money to build a new stadium from scratch? But it does seem odd to be paying to expand a stadium you don't own. It could end up in a bit of a legal nightmare.

    Gomis , thanks for the memories .

    I still think Monk's a good manager. This is just a mistake and something he will learn from. I'm not giving him a caning (in case you are referring to me), but I think he has t take the blame here. He's the manager, so his job is to manage the players. If any player isn't happy, then that...

    Gomis , thanks for the memories .

    I suppose the answer to that is not to promise what you can't deliver. I suppose it all depends exactly what was said. Maybe it was said because they assumed Bony was leaving but then didn't leave. So it should have been made clear. It seems obvious that Bony would be first choice even before...

    Gomis , thanks for the memories .

    Yes, it did seem that way. I guess Huw just wanted to cash in or maybe another reason. But for Gomis, he gets told something that doesn't happen, so I don't see how he can be blamed for wanting to leave. Bony has left, so Gomis will probably get more game time if he stays, but the trust is now...

    Gomis , thanks for the memories .

    I think the problem clearly lies with SCFC. If he was told he would get game time that eh didn't get he must feel like he was lied to. How would anyone feel under those circumstances. You'd feel cheated and unwanted. Let that go on for a few months and your heart just isn't in it. Yes, he could...

    Assessment of Monk

    Chelsea are absolute rubbish. When was the last time they beat a team above them? It's easy when you only play teams below you! LOL.
