    Competition - Sky Bet Championship
    Venue - MKM Stadium
    Date - 29 April 2023
    Kick off - 3:00pm

    Following their 3-0 victory away at Norwich, Russell Martin’s Swansea squad travel to Hull to play their final away Championship match of the season.

    Last Saturday, the Swans’ fine late-season form continued as head coach Russell Martin enjoyed a 3-0 win on his return to Norwich City.

    Joel Latibeaudiere and Liam Cullen headed in before Norwich's Sam McCallum was sent off late in the first half.

    Olivier Ntcham's goal rounded off an emphatic victory for a Swansea side who have taken 19 points from seven games.

    They moved alongside Norwich in the table, three points outside the Championship play-off places.

    But with only two games each to play this season - and a host of clubs involved in the congested top-six race - both Norwich and Swansea look as if they will miss out on the Play-Offs.

    Whilst the Swans were beating the Canaries, Ozan Tufan's penalty ensured that Hull ended Watford's Championship play-off hopes.

    The Tigers had won one of their previous eight games but the recalled Tufan converted from the spot on 24 minutes.

    Tigers’ keeper Karl Darlow then produced a superb late save to deny Ismaila Sarr and ensure a seventh clean sheet in eight in front of their own fans.

    The Hornets are winless in eight on the road and, having sat third on 20 January, slipped into the bottom half three points ahead of the Tigers.

    The Swans have played Hull on 81 previous occasions, winning 32, losing 30 and drawing 19.

    Without doubt, the most memorable meeting was on 3rd May 2003:



    Turning to Saturday, I have a feeling that the Swans’ recent great run will come to an end: 2-1 to Hull.

    Hope I’m wrong and that the other results go in our favour <cheers>

    All runs end, we know that. It's inevitable. I think I'll plump for a draw though, 1 - 1.

    Oh how different things could have been with a few more points under our belt, going into the play offs in great form :(

    I got a Swansea building society instant access saver at 3.25% for a relative recently..
    Coventry fixed 1yr cash isa 4.40% if got account for a while ,or castletrust bank 1yr fixed 4.25%
    Easy access cash isa cynergy bank 3.35%

    Not sure maybe sbs rate was for a limited time maybe ?
    Money saving expert site is pretty good looking for best rates ?

    The SBS rate of 3.25% is the current rate - not a limited offer I understand <ok>

    Once you hit a grand in interest a year you're taxed for anything above that , then you've got the 20k limit for isas as you probably know ? If you're lucky enough to have more to save or invest then gold is tax free cgt free too I believe ? Beyond that I don't know where else you can make unless you hit property, art, wine, antiques, classic vehicles etc ?
