Load of crap, and just a way to feel better about their loss. Comfort food for the weak more than anything.

IF clubs stopped trying to buy their way into the Premier League then football wouldn't be in the mess it is in. And to say the gulf is getting bigger is crap, if anything the gap between the top clubs and the others is closing. The problem is, there is still that fear factor. The only two clubs for me, that have squads that are far superior is Man City and Chelsea, the others don't, they have their good players, such as Ozil, Van Persie, Suarez, and the like, but they are not a team of stars. And in our case, we have Bony, or as last season proved, Michu. We all have our star player, its how we use the rest of the squad that seems to matter.

How can the likes of Jamie Redknapp have predicted us to be a contender for the top 6, if as the article suggests the top clubs keep pulling away? Granted it hasn't come to fruition, but thats not the point, it goes to show how we have been doing, that even the pundits had us down for bigger things.

How can a club like Swansea, go from nobodies, to Premier League, and cup winners, to playing in Europe, with a small fan base, and lack of income streams. Yet a team like Birmingham, are using the excuse of less funds. Just goes to show, that not all clubs know how to use their funds to their advantage.




Good post here, fair play swanselona! Love it when these clubs don't like it up them, and Birmingham have been in the Premiership, just not a well run club, which is well documented, most of their supporters new there was going to be a backlash from the League cup, and most of their fans predicted a Swans win, they were just hoping we would have kept Bony on the bench all game!...............<ok>
