    If you weren't so daft-brush thick then I wouldn't have to dig would I? :)

    Tell us what was wrong with the starting line up and what you would do....... I for one am genuinely interested.

    Just a quick diversion, lads. These threads remind me of an old party game. It went as follows:

    A number of people (say 10) sit on chairs in a horse shoe formation. Player No 1, who has to have at least a little drawing talent, pencils in the first line of an object. (The idea is that he tries to disguise for as long as possible what that object is going to be). Player No 2 looks at what he has drawn and copies it. Player No 3 looks at what No 2 has drawn and in turn copies that. Then player 4 copies player 3 and so on until player 10 copies what 9 has drawn.

    Player 1 draws the next line and the copying sequence is repeated until the object is completed (10 to 15 rounds). When I took part in this, player 1 drew a train and it was amazing to see the results. In theory everyone should have had broadly the same object - they were after all drawing copies. But sequentially you could see the copies becoming more and more inaccurate the further they went. I think player 10's drawing looked more like two pigs shagging than a train and the results were no better when the next object was a spaceship.

    Just a little anecdote to show how easy it is to become distracted and vary from the subject at hand as so often happens on these threads. The point of this? None really. Just showing that I can be as distracted as the next man. :smile:

    Good Post Ivor, here are the predictions from the Dragon's den!

    Manchester City Home 1
    Manchester Utd Away 0
    Spurs Away 1
    Chelsea Home 1
    Newcastle Home 3
    Liverpool Home 3
    Stoke Away 0
    Norwich Home 3

    Everton Home 3
    WBA Away 1

    That's how I see the results going for us, that's 28 points on top of our current 26, giving us a final total of 54 points! Not bad for a first season...........

    tried hard to be conservative with selection and not be to greedy but anything over 40pts should be ok and as i always say when have the swans done things the easy way ? and weve had quite a few draws in the recent past aye !
