Please do no mistake my enthusiasm as disrespectful.... we are all aware of the major mountain we now have to climb to just stay up. BUT I AM JUST PLAIN ELATED AT THE CHANCE TO TRY!!! This time over the last 30 years we could only dream of meeting the likes of Spurs/Man U/Liverpool/Chelsea/Arsenal et al in a cup run. I look forward to seeing us paly.... may the best team win.
I love the fact a newcastle 'fan' who were in the championship the season before last and more likely next is giving it large
Hardly giving it large mate, just making an observation on Swansea's style of play. It just won't work in the EPL. Now, I don't know what they've been working on in pre-season, they may be aware of this and trying to work something out!
I have bad memories of the last time I went to Anfield to watch the Swans..... hopefully lightning will not strike twice. PS Thanks for helping us out when we were in the deep stuff in the 80's.
How is that "bitter"? We just like to have decent conversation on our board, rather than some clown fishing for compliments.
I take it you didn't watch the Championship last year then.........there was only one team renowned for it's all out attacking football...... the super swans.... and it was supposed to be the reason we would never get promoted. Who know's if it will work this year? The club you mentioned had no decent midfield come the push, no team ethic and was a long ball team with a big man up front which backfired when he didn't turn up (even the Cardiff fans will admit to that). If thats your idea of great play then each to their own.
Sounds like you didnt see any of our attractive,attacking,sweet passing football last season yeah ? just ask forest,reading etc about our sitting back in the championship last year ! fantastic name choice btw.
7 teams scored more goals than Swansea including Cardiff. It was your defence that got you promoted, no doubts! I think you are confusing counter-attacking with actual outright attacking ala Blackpool
Cardiff playing attractive football, are you serious You seen too be a bit confused. Swansea play the attractive top class football and Cardiff don't
Well try having a football convo with a fellow football fan then instead of sounding like a bunch of arrogant twats it is a football forum after all
Swans play sit back, boring counter attack football not outright attacking style like Blackpool and Cardiff
Get your facts right my Byker Grove friend, to be a counter attacking side .... you need to hit them on the break..... simples. The posession stats for the Championship last year clearly show we held the ball, passed the ball more than any other team and then we looked for the correct pass. This was something that worked to our detriment in a few games and may well hurt us this year if we don't improve.... we shall see.
After one floundering but managing to stay up season in the big show... they forget to look behind them at the hungry guys coming from behind.
Aye, across your back 4.... Also, get your geography right "my sheep shagging friend" Byker is no where near East Durham (the HomeLand of Wor Bobby)
All the best for the coming season marra! Swansea is one of the away games which I definitely intend to go to this season despite the distance from Sunderland.
How is this a 'football convo', this is just generic "I hope you do well but not against us" tedium mixed with a bit of brown nosing.
this is just general bullshit , as to the you'll have a good night out ..... thats true slags everywhere<corkswanseaferries>
