    I dont think you are getting my drift here. Man Utd was an excellent win but its plain to see now that they are not right yet and we were fortunate to play them up first rather than later on when they do get things right, and the rest of the games including today's were and is at home. We have not had a good challenge away yet and that is what im waiting for before i go overboard on how good our team really is .

    This will be the biggest test. They will be up for it as they did well last year in that game and they will know we can't play well in two halves. Really hoping for the three points but will not be too upset if we get a draw.

    To get 9 points at this stage would be a dream, and a major psychological boost, as said elsewhere a quarter way to safety after three games and could enable some focus on some cup runs.

    Last time we won the first two games we won a cup, FA Cup this time?

    Man Utd struggling at half time against Burnley, so beating them last week a handy three points. Looking forward to this game, just hoping we can come out of the blocks firing as it could get attritional second half if close.

    Cheers Dai. The pitch is in great condition, hopefully we can perform for 90 minutes today.

    And I'm sure Garry Monk will be focused on the above by Trundle, Excited yes, but a serious shift needs to be put in by all of our players!.............<ok>

    Great opportunity for us today. I hope the boys work their bollocks off.
    If they do and pass the ball well I think we have the firepower up front to get the win....not counting my chickens though as the baggies are an experienced side who will probably come for the point and fight tooth and nail for it.
    Let's match them
    Up the Swans!

    Unchanged team gives Shelvey and Taylor a chance to consolidate their position ... up to them to play to their best.

    We're three games into the season and Bony has yet to score ... over due big time.

    Well you have to say that was a very satisfactory first quarter. Why Woy Hodgson isnt watching the Swans is beyond me!
