    Each season i have a second team, usually a promoted team who i like to watch and hope do well in the season.

    Congratulations, you are mine and i think most other supporters second team this season.

    love your mini arsenal/barcelona style of play, really won me over and i always look out for any live games you have on sky, really are a good team to watch for the neutral

    i think if you stay up this season and the next then with the right transfers you can really establish and go places in the premier league.

    good luck:emoticon-0148-yes:

    got to admit didnt like our game against you guys, but its deffinatly another positive for you

    like i said love your style but in that game i was so frustrated how you got behind the ball and was so solid defensively. another aspect to your game that really can complement you if you can find a balance. you have been one of a very few teams able to withstand our attack this season.

    Think it was the occasion with Speed etc. Rodgers set us up not to lose, hit you on the break, and try and pinch something. It was frustrating for us to watch, as that's not our style of play. I never thought we'd get a point, so travelled back very happy.

    That Ba's a handful mind, loved that goal against Man U.

    Toon, really nice words. It does mean something.
    A lot of us are still in dream land, just enjoying our time in the prem.
    We have been very privileged with some of the football we have seen over the past few years, and we have been quite successful.
    But being in this league and playing as we have has been a dream come true.
    There is a great buzz around the city, and it seems Swansea are going through a green patch. We know it wont last forever, so we are enjoying it as much as possible now!

    one of the most common things for a promoted team is to play some horrible physical football that borders on kickboxing. at times effective, but a very unpleasant tactic. i like how you have come into the league and you go for good technical football

    Thanks for the support Toon - am a passionate Jack but Newcastle have been my second team since the Malcolm MacDonald days - yep, I am that old! Good luck for the season and hope we are playing you next season! <cheers>

    Careful cartoonhead, the likes of Norway Jack called me disloyal for liking a second team. No, I kid you not. My connection is family 'cos grandad was a Geordie so I've always been a fan. Except when they play us.

    Good to know that discerning fans are enjoying watching us this season. <applause>

    Thanks for the warning Knackeredjack, but I think everyone has a second team if their first team plays outside the top flight - makes watching MotD more interesting - it is nice that now we are in the top flight (never get tired of saying that) we are picking up new admirers!
