One man, Vitor, has definitely changed the culture of the team, and for the better...like you say I'm really enjoying the football now...we actually move it forward with pace. Less time for the opposition to marshall their defence. Remember the bad days, their defence could have a chat and a...

It's like having Garrincha and Jairzinho maybe 🤔 The oldies on here will know who I mean...

I agree with all this. But it's the groundhog day "summer overhaul" I'm not looking forward to. Every year seems to be the same. New names. Hope. Quality doesn't materialize. Rinse and repeat. But with Vitor I have a bit more hope though 🤞

Amen to this 👍

Mate, you're supposed to be furious about the ref, the tactics, and that one crap miss in the 89th minute. This is football, not therapy.😀

Let's be positive and negative. Say we scraped into 6th spot. And scraped a play off win 😀 I'd dread the Prem tbh. 😞 Though if we could get more than Derby or Wolves points I'd take it 😃 Seriously though, is the Prem a realistic ambition these days for a Club our size/income - and also given...

Any semblance of the ACTUAL ( and beautiful) Swansea Way went after Laudrup, maybe a bit with Potter. Since then it's been s**t boring possession football ( across and backwards to be accurate) with little purpose other than to stack up stats. It's an insult for some to suggest that also might...

All of this is true...but the biggest thing for me is that I'm actually enjoying the football and even look forward to games now. Been years since I felt that.

Yep, I do like to see a long run up followed by an on-target smash. Having said that though, Ivan Toney, with just one step, still fills me with confidence that he will score - but he is a supreme professional penalty taker. He's certainly a rare one with that style. ( And unfortunately I saw...

Interesting article below in the wake of the Diaz miss. Also includes a lot of insight into penalty taking by our very own Lee Trundle. For me, if you're going down the middle - smash it. A Panenka when it goes in is great, but still show-offy for me. Not worth the risk unless you're at least...

Historically hardwired in. In Vitor I trust 😊

This is a general comment. As has been said elsewhere by NW Jack, when talking about more cash from the owners in the summer, it's not a reflection on their benevolence, it's the FFP limitations. More income is needed to be generated to raise the ceiling a la Wrexham, who are able to spend...

That's a fair point when we are looking for extra quality in the summer. That costs. Makes you think how do we break through to the "next step" (Mark II). Looking back we had such players as Leon, Joey, Ash, Angel (and other Spanish imports), Ben Davies, Trundle, Dan James, Ollie McBurnie...

Here you go. Quite right too, the vicious bastard https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/ce3kxzzny4do
