    Widdell

    Think he gets himself into good positions but would like to see more end product in the final 3rd. Hopefully that’ll come with more gametime in the second half of the season.

    The only downside with this - and it’s a refreshing change to the last few years, where we were so reluctant to take a shot - is that we butchered 2 or 3 opportunities to create a 1 on 1 with the keeper by following this head down and shoot fron anywhere within 25 yards policy. I’m all for...

    Agree entirely that the players shouldn’t have a negative mentality, but if you’re expecting the same 11 players to press for 90 mins in the next 3 games that’s also not realistic. I want us in a position where we can do to Oxford & West Brom what we did second half tonight - personally I...

    Boxing Day is a free hit for me. No issues if he decides to rest/rotate a few and ensure that energy levels are as high as possible and we come out of the traps quickly against Oxford & West Brom.

    Thoroughly enjoyed that tonight. Bit low in quality at times and we butchered some very good opportunities to create more clear cut chances but overall I thought we deserved the win - despite the strange nature of all 3 goals. Definitely something to build on for the second half of the...

    27 Points Needed - 9 Wins

    Not sure what the lowest we’ve been on at the half way stage would be? I’d be surprised if it was much higher than what we’ll have this season though. Not disputing the last few months have been very underwhelming (and that’s an understatement) though and we need to put a good run together at...

    27 Points Needed - 9 Wins

    I think 57 is the fewest we’ve had in 10 Championship seasons. Still think that sort of figure is doable

    S25/26 | The Official Match Thread | Stoke City 2 Swansea City 1 | Att: 23,089 | 13/12/25 | The EFL Championship | The Bet365 Stadium

    There’s very little to choose between the whole league this year (apart from Sheffield Wednesday). If we play with the intent we did for most of today’s game on a consistent basis then there’s still no reason we can’t finish between 10th & 14th - we’re going to need at least one good run of...

    People may say you shouldn’t feel sorry for footballers because of the money they earn, but from a human point of view I feel sorry for him. Needs to be taken out of the squad for his own good as much as anything else. He’s not going to play his way back into form/confidence in the short term...

    Pretty consistent team selection over the 3 games. Don’t have a problem with Widell on the bench after 2 starts. Hopefully Cullen steps up in terms of performance and has some confidence after the goal in midweek. Take a point, but definitely want to see a performance this afternoon!

    World Cup 2026 - A General Thread (Includes ‘Hydration’ Break Discussion)

    Hopefully for the remaining years I have left on this planet, so 90-100 in total to be on the safe side!!

    The Ospreys

    Not sure it's a better league in terms of quality - at the top end anyway. Definitely better for Welsh players in terms of the financial package, travelling and family life though, so totally understandable that they'd want to play in that league (or in France for that matter)! With this...

    Eom

    Agree with JB - too inconsistent for me, but good enough to be in the team more often than not for a mid table Championship club. Needs more output - goals and assists to be any better than that IMO

    World Cup 2026 - A General Thread (Includes ‘Hydration’ Break Discussion)

    Great summary and some similar memories (if in different locations). International football isn't for everyone, but I love a World Cup. Always some great stories and as long as England don't win it I'll thoroughly enjoy this one as well!!

    The Ospreys

    I knew the cricket club were due to play there from May but didn’t realise that the rugby club were playing in Dunvant. Does that mean that St Helens isn’t being used at all at present and that some work has already started at the ground? If not (and nothing goes ahead) surely they can just...

    The Ospreys

    Do we think the stadium redevelopment will actually take place now? Obviously some modernisation is needed but surely there’s no reason Swansea RFC & CC couldn’t work together to keep it multi purpose? The idea that short/medium term that crowds in the semi-pro league in Wales (or the...

    The Ospreys

    Tbf around half of those 160 are not good enough to be playing in the league they currently are, let alone international level. Condensing the player pool and centrally contracting, whilst allowing those who want to play in the French or English league, is actually one of the better ideas the...

    The Ashes 2025/26

    Possibly, but the bigger question is ‘are there players in the county system, that are technically good enough and have the mentality for test cricket, ready to replace anyone in this side?’ Don’t watch enough domestic cricket to know the answer but as awful as these 2 tests have been the answer...

    Rotating for a Saturday-Tuesday-Saturday week is par for the course these days but I’d go all out with the same side from minute 1 on Tuesday night. Getting the win would be huge and hopefully set us up for the Xmas period. If it means we have to rotate 4/5 away at Stoke then so be it - that’d...
