    I thought the Reading game was a home one. Now I know it's away I'm going to venture up and take a gander.

    Not seen anything yet - will be waiting to see who we are playing first - Hibs or Malmo! Would expect tickets to go on sale pretty quickly then.

    Not sure Jager - does seem strange and bloody frustrating! Think will have to have a wander up Reading way like Never!

    Hope I don't miss out. I don't have a season ticket and can only make a limited amount of games now!

    Great little stat!: Swansea scored 23 goals in the last 5 matches, and have only conceded 1! Bring on the season

    Union - the blog no longer, or I can't find it - got another comment from the sport editors twitter though

    Very relaxed from Swansea and then they can shift up a gear so easily. Defensive uncertainty continuing from Yeovil's game v Torquay

    Thanks cartoonhead! It's lovely to read such nice comments from fans of teams like Yeovil who were our rivals not to long ago. I remember seeing Orlandi at the Liberty for the first time and thinking what a classy player he looked. My how we've come on!

    Agree Union and Never - always nice to read good comments, and as for the Evening Post - they can do one for the s**t stirring at the beginning of the Summer - could have cost us a few signings with their never ending quest to create ill will and bad feeling between Lauds and the board.

    I could see that Jager, web site the same. But at least they can write a decent article, the post can't.

    Cartoonhead. Remember the EP had a problem with Sousa as well. It must be that former top players like Sousa and Laudrup have been pestered by the press all their playing careers and they treat/ed the EP with indifference and obviously the EP takes exception to that! I don't think ML or Sousa have lost any sleep over it though.

    Thing is guys like Sousa and Laurup wouldn't take the crap off these small time hacks, though I think Sousa told them to basically **** off, whilst Laudrup just repeated what he said all along and remained dignified.

    I knew there was a reason I liked Sousa Jäger, apart from that suit he wore when he signed! He looked well smart!

    I liked Sousa he brought a lot to the club at the time, without him we I don't think would be where we are now. Though he did bore the crap out of me with some of his tactics, he took it to far and didn't allow flair and attacking play. Basically the opposite of Martinez
