I was at that Peterborough game - we were probably on the same train !

Jimmys on the Bridge was that gay bar - the banter was top drawer in there fair play !

I saw myself on Nationwide League Extra celebrating one of our goals ! One of my favourite away trips as everyone was drunk as a skunk with it being a Bank Holiday - great times!

Yes it was a great day out. I was very merry in that bar, the barman was shocked how many pints I knocked back. It was a right laugh, they were such good hosts. I met a Swan’s fan called Mike on the train back to London.

"I met a Swan’s fan called Mike on the train back to London..."

Did he say he'd bunked off work to go to the game and was on his way back as his mates were covering his 12 hour shift ? LOL !

Looks like there is train engineering work going on with services to Charlton not running. Best check before travelling

Nothing on the TFL website if you put your journey details in - part of the DLR is closed but not any part that affects travelling to Greenwich etc - there's some work going on further east I think out towards Gravesend etc and if you're travelling in from Kent but other than that I can't see anything that would affect most Swans fans heading to the game.

A few things for AS to consider here..

Does he revert us back to a back 4

Does he bring Cabango back in

Does Casey, Samuels-Smith and Widdel deserve a start

Do we look a better team with Inoussa playing of Idah and Tymon further forward

Should VP start

And where is that third kit

 

[eteb]

Got to be 3-4-3 again. I woukdnt mind Idah alongside vip either in a 3-5-2 sometimes

I'm I missing something? I have been reading elsewhere people are saying this is a tough fixture? I don't see why we shouldn't be going there and expecting a win. Yes they sit higher up the table, but keep up the performance we did in first half against Man citu then we will get something. That's only issue for me is how tired will the team be?

Don’t think we can “expect” to win any away game in the championship. They just smashed Ipswich 3-0 away and find themselves in the top 6. We have a chance though, but wouldn’t be expecting to win.

They are the best performing side to come up from League One and have recruited well during the summer. Nathan Jones is a good manager for them and he hates us so it will be bloody difficult. I would except a 3-3 draw at this moment, we perform well and we could get the 3 points, however, I expect us to lose. I hope to goodness they can prove me wrong. JACK ARMY!!!
