    I realise that it sounds like that to you from your perspective.

    All I can do is report what I see. The best you could find was our left back going down with a nose bleed :)

    I guarantee you this coming Saturday Suarez or Sturridge will go down claiming a pen. It's routine at the bigger clubs (Ba last night, Ramsey when he came down with Arsenal off the top of my head). Probably coached.

    Watch our game if you can, it very rarely happens.

    We haven't had a penalty this year and I would be happy not to get a penalty all year if it means we don't have to tolerate pathetic diving twats. I don't think I'm in the minority amongst Swans fans
    E.g. When Chico first signed he was getting some stick from our lot for about 6-8 weeks because they found him too "dramatic"

    So its only Swansea that has to play Stoke? You did win last year are you sure that that's not where this piousness has come from?
    Liverpool ahead of swansea in every category but one, so not just on cards.

    Liverpool finished 8th in 11/12 season so some improvement under rodgers.

    "dramatic" like your captain who jumped on the slag Suarez bandwagon to make a few extra quid out of his book?

    Pity Ash never slated Davies for his dive at Stoke so readily, but then again there wasn't any glory in him slagging his team-mate off.

    You're just seeing the effects of playing a control/possession game. If you've got the ball 60% of the time it is natural that the team trying to win it back are making most of the fouls and thus it is likely you pick up less cards.

    This year we have developed a plan 'B' sitting deep and swiftly counter attacking game to go alongside our possession game. It is natural that when using plan 'b' we see less of the ball and spend more time winning it back, hence cards.

    Unfortunately you get **** all from being top of the fair play league, as we found out.
    Don't give a **** about free-kicks and cards anyway, they are mistakes.
    What I despise is the cheating....diving, professional fouls and deliberate handballs.

    You are seriously comparing our 19 year old debutant season left-back with World famous, confessed cheat Suarez.
    His list alone would go on and on, nevermiind Gerrard's.
    All you got on Davies is one debateable incident.

    Yeah the old Liverpool teams kept possession very well.

    This is different. It is possession in order to defend. Hence the keeper never kicking it out and taking far more risks...Hansen and Lawro has kittens on MOTD'S when your keeper/defence do that so don't tell me it's the same!

    It wasn't cheating you cretin. The ref adds the time on the end!
    Just a couple of kids playing to the Chelsea fans behind the goals (who were giving them stick).

    In the same game Ba took a dive in the area and both Oscar and Hazard went down when in a good free kick position at every opportunity, yet you are calling us cheats because a ball boy let a few run past him before picking it up!
    The irony is, if the Chelsea starlets had spent more time trying to score than dive they probably would have managed it :)

    Just like the fair play league 'means **** all' possession means **** all, we've dominated teams this season including Utd and City at Anfield where we got 1 point.

    Fair ****s.

    Chico I accept. Been rectified.
    Not having the Ben Davies one.

    I really can't be bothered to go through Gerrard or Owen's dives, I'd be here all night :)

    The lad said hours before the game on twitter that he was going to waste time, was this a club policy on the night or did he do it off his own bat?

    Time wasting is a yellow card offense the same as diving, So in terms of the rules yes it is cheating!
    However if you want to qualify one type of cheating of less importance than the other then i'll leave that up to you.

    Yeah we found that out, but it suited us because we were very weak at the back, in the Championship as well as the Prem.
    People took the piss out of us for passing it along the back and back again umpteen times but it suited us because this was time used up where we didn't have to defend.
    Not good enough for Liverpool as I told you in the summer

    I'm not sure if that early morning spat from Terrowit typifies him or the majority of Swansea fans but it ain't half boring - a complete waste of time! It's just a classic example of the "I'm right and whatever you say I'll twist your reply to prove that I'm right". What a lot of effort to prove absolutely nothing. Pity, it could have been interesting.

    T.Wit fortunately isn't representative of all Swans fans. Most of them do know what they're talking about they just don't bother posting pages of drivel on another teams board. You've got to love the "we invented the new possession game" stuff though <laugh> It's pure comedy to read that stuff.

    And the "holier than thou" business. It might be a wind-up, but if he seriously believes that stuff, I worry for him.
