    Brilliant result tonight, terrific performance from everyone. Icing on the cake was Saints losing, always thought they may struggle against Bristol, but thought it’d be a draw.

    Just a shame that the 2nd half Sky coverage of our match was unwatchable. Onto a tough game on Saturday lunchtime at Plymouth. MOT

    What a glorious evening....
    Leeds giving Swans a tonking and keeping a clean sheet to boot
    Punted City to win £214 @ 1.24
    Punted Pallas Lord at Newcastle £20 @ 3
    and to top it off Brizzle City spanked the Saints.

    Fantastic performance tonight but it is impossible for us to win every game until the end of the season so let’s not overreact when the inevitable defeat comes along. What a pity we had that protracted takeover by the 49rs, which delayed the appointment of Farke, then he had to deal with the rats and the Gnonto issue. We could have been up there doing a Leicester without that bollocks.

    Why is it impossible, just got to do twice what we've already done,14 more games and no top sides away.Highest away team we play is coventry who are 8th.

    Barsteward! Didn't reply earlier as I was so fcuking angry. I thought you meant that Southampton scored for some reason & went in the huff. Didn't bother to check, did I? Numpty!

    Silver lining is that I got another lift when I got round to checking the results & realise what a plonker I was. Yippee! <laugh>:smiley-finger007:

    Now that's how you start a game on the front foot and then step on the gas again after getting the first goal.

    Well done lads brilliant performance <applause><applause><applause>

    Gnonto now looks a £30M player again.

    Jeez it's a funny old game as he was useless a month ago.

    Agreed but, it’s in our hands for the first time since the season began. Win them all and we’re up. We won’t, but neither will anyone else.

    I thought we were the nuts tonight, really, really good. If the Baggies get anything off Southampton on Friday and we beat Plymouth I will believe for the first time all season. If that happens everyone has to say, well done Daniel FARKE, which leads me on to…. Doc, suck your pride up and post. We butt heads sometimes but mate, deep down, I know this forum is so important to you. I know you have been gravely ill and probably don’t understand how massive it is to you to have an outlet like this but, ffs, forget pride, get back on here buddy, probably for your wife’s sanity more than anything :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Ps, don’t mistake that for an open invitation for you and MWW to post any groundless transfer rumour from some 9 year old to get any credibility from me :emoticon-0181-fubar

    Hate to be a pillock, but it comes naturally. :D Southampton can pip us by 1 point if they win all their games. They've got a game in hand.

    Ahhh. That felt good, Macros. :D

    We have to play Soton so we can't both win all our remaining games

    After Bielsa it seemed we wouldn't ever play football as pleasing on the eye again but my god at times tonight we were so impressive.

    Full credit to Farke and the players as we're improving now almost game by game.

    Remember though, Jammy - Swansea play like us. They want to win, so leave us lots of attractive spaces to attack. We usually play very well against these teams. It's the bus-parkers we're not so clever with. We've not particularly improved either performances or results with them & your heart is in your mouth for the full 90, whether we're ahead or not. We have 'form' against these teams that is nothing to be proud of.

    There were plenty of disappointing days under Marcelo as well but at least we're playing really good football again and it's a joy to watch.

    We moved last Wednesday to a rural village outside Peterborough. We’re winning 3-0 and at half time my daughter who’s baby was due in 6 days time goes into Labour, she screams there is no time to get to the hospital call an ambulance.

    My wife rushes to her in the bathroom and within 5-10 minutes the baby’s head is starting to show, the Ambulance arrives and 5 minutes later the baby is delivered by a Paramedic.

    I thank the Paramedic who said it’s been a great evening, Southampton lost and Leeds won 4-0. He was a Leeds supporter, I’m still in shock to be honest.
