What would be more beneficial? Knowing that we've always got a place to play or having to decamp to Parc Y Sgarlets because of dodgy ownership? There are pros and cons to most angles in this.

Infrastructure investments aren't counted towards PSR so yes, potentially we wouldn't have to make "rent" payments to the council any more. Having the ground not owned by the club does offer us a certain protection however and the prospect of that no longer being the case should be treated with...

Well worth an hour or so of anyone's time. Some really interesting stuff in here.

Bang on. Performances like we're seeing now got Williams linked with the WBA job.

If anything this season is a bit of a repeat of the last campaign at basically the same stage. We're not doing horrendously, but the players we have are capable of more than we're seeing. The main difference is that the people who defended Lukey for it last season are criticising Sheehan now.

Exactly this, and it's been obvious for a couple of months.

There are still people who will romanticise the kind of football that we played under Martin and Williams. Forget the fact that we were terminally dull to watch under both. Forget the fact that defensively we were leakier than the Titanic. They upheld "The Swansea Way", even if our passing stats...

We just need to understand that Widell should start most games from here on in (I get why he didn't start today after the work he put in on Wed). We simply cannot go without a creative option in midfield. I'd also be playing Inoussa ahead of Ronald.

I suspect quite a few people balking at paying £90 for what seems to be a fairly decent quality hoodie were falling over themselves to pay £40+ for a polyester replica shirt when they came out.

Paterson did well for us overall, and might have done even better if he hadn't been working for Russy. That's even more so the case for Ntcham, who was potentially one of the best central midfielders in the division yet consistently found himself playing wide on the left. It may well be the...

He's far from the first, but this season he has been a salutary lesson in the dangers of writing a player off too soon, and far too many people did. Even last season he had something like a goal every three starts yet faced much of the same type of criticism that Idah is now. There was always a...

As trendy as it is to bash Fulton I thought he was by far the best of those four. That charge back and tackle that he did got a grand reaction. He didn't disgrace himself IMO. The game was shifting in their favour by that point. Maybe we aided the process by making those changes but I wouldn't...

Always struck me as "Diet Russy" to be honest. Quick with the easy PR wins but a different side on display when challenged, and the whole WBA situation reflects very poorly on his character. His last two non-Notts County jobs outside non-league have both ended in the sack. He'll have to show a...

Great, but for me better playing off someone. Or support striker. Bony I'd cheerfully play up top on his own.

Still the best striker I've ever seen for us. Don't care about the second spell. First time around he was almost unplayable.

I don't think there's anything that LOB did for us last season that Ethan Galbraith isn't capable of doing this time around so you'd have to assume that there's more to it than that.

That's not what we did though, as much as the professional hindsight artists are trying to pretend otherwise right now. We appointed a guy who had delivered significantly improved results and performances across two separate spells as caretaker manager. We turned things around from the absolute...

Here's hoping.

There definitely feels like a dearth of entertainment in football generally these days compared to years gone by. Maybe it's just me being a bit "Old man yells at cloud", but the Premier League was enthralling in the days of Henry, Cantona, Hasselbaink et al. Now it all just seems a bit too...

If we wind up paying £20m then every single player would have done remarkably well and we'd be back in the Premier League. In reality the spending is half that, probably even quite a bit less.
