    Then again I’m not watching this game

    Can’t agree with you, sorry. When Julian Alsop headed the ball he would literally look around in surprise to see where it had gone.

    Summer 2024 Transfer Rumours

    Summer 2024 Transfer Rumours

    I don’t agree about the players we already have being peas from the same pod. Sure, Grimes and Fulton are now playing like clones of each other, but at their best Grimes is a creative playmaker and Fulton is a first-class DM. With the right coaching, they could be assets to the squad. And Allen...

    Would it be easier for you to understand if I use the synonym "individual" instead of "single" in that sentence? As opposed to general negatives, of which there were a great many.

    Actually we did play some players out of position, but when we did it was out of necessity I feel, rather than persisting with a formation we didn’t have the players for. I would hope the parent clubs of any loanees who suffered as a result would understand that.

    Season rating

    Main positive from this season is that we started to reverse the damage done by ‘Russ’, who painted us into a corner by getting rid of all of our wingers and training anyone with a smattering of pace to reduce the tempo to a crawl. If we can hold on to Ronald, Placheta and maybe Lowe then we...

    Season 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Norwich City vs Swansea City | The EFL Championship

    Excellent post. Only thing I’d quibble with is that those incidents with Key in the first half didn’t feel like the full-back’s fault - he didn’t provide a through ball because Ronald didn’t look like he was going anywhere. Maybe (as we both said) it was because he had two defenders on him and...

    Season 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Norwich City vs Swansea City | The EFL Championship

    Main puzzle/concern for me yesterday was Ronald. A number of times he got the ball in potentially dangerous positions but passed it rather than taking the defenders on with his pace. I thought maybe the problem was that each time he lost momentum controlling the incoming long balls so would have...

    Season 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Norwich City vs Swansea City | The EFL Championship

    Must have been a very different experience watching it on TV. I found it entertaining at times, but overall not one of our best games this season, particularly after Wood and Yates came on (although Lowe was some compensation). Too many moves ended up straight back with the keeper, too many...

    Not able to make the Millwall match so this is our last game of the season. Let's hope we continue our run and take some positivity into the summer break.

    Season 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Middlesbrough vs Swansea City | The EFL Championship

    I don't believe I've ever said Darling is our best defender, but I do believe he gives 100% commitment more often than not, and therefore has a better claim to the captain's armband than Grimes does. I have been critical of Darling's defensive abilities in the past but I've definitely warmed to...

    So if you had to create a pie chart of players/manager, how would you apportion responsibility for the last two games? Given what we know about this squad’s ability from the Millwall and Cardiff matches.

    Season 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Sheffield Wednesday v Swansea City | The EFL Championship | Good Friday

    The walking football virus entered this club under Russell Martin. No amount of name checking other managers you disliked will change that. Three managers have tried to find a cure and to date, none of them have cracked it. Let’s hope Williams succeeds where others have failed.

    Season 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Sheffield Wednesday v Swansea City | The EFL Championship | Good Friday

    Well said. That's the million dollar question for me: are they playing the way they were told to play, or are they ignoring instructions from the manager? To be fair to Martin, we did see some really good football during his period in charge, but the squad always reverted back to...

    What I was trying to say in that last post is ‘You are a knobhead troll and everyone is bored of your pathetic efforts to make Martin look good by endlessly dissing Duff. Get behind our current manager and stop wasting valuable space on here’. Apologies if I my wording was unclear.

    Season 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Swansea City vs Cardiff City | The EFL Championship

    What a shame to see arguments breaking out the day after a performance like that. I woke up this morning, went on Swansea Independent to see no more than minor squabbling about whether Grimes should be captain, and decided that finally we can put the Cooper/Martin/Duff wars to bed. Then this…...

    Totally agree about Darling being MoM. His reaction to Cooper getting a free kick in extra time was superb. And he was far from the only one. If this is how Williams wants us to play I'm up for it. We will need at least one new strikers in the next window though. Give Lowe a contract and play...
