It'll be a game of possession and missed chances for us and them up the road scoring from a corner and set piece. 2 nil to them up the road. I have no confidence with this manager whatsoever. His tactics are so inept it there for all to see and i think supporters have been blindsided by promises of quality possession football which as we know doesn't win matches as we have seen already this season.

Yeah exactly. Since when have swansea ever enjoyed any success playing possession based football? I can’t recall a single thing in the last decade. Not a single thing.

I also think Cardiff will nick the game with a 0-1 win. They’ve been rubbish, lost 5 on the bounce and MM is under huge pressure, however ‘tis the Swansea way to be very generous to others and shoot themselves in the foot and I can see the Swans gifting it away.

I don't, I think we will beat them, we have improved week by week, two weeks more training will make us sharper, a feral atmosphere will inspire the troops to victory.

Have some faith Major STID 🦢

Wotever way you look at the home defeat to them last year, no crowd there made a massive difference. As FB states, the hostility will again be off the scale, and THAT could just be the thing that swings it our way.
 
I think we will edge it because of the crowd and no reason other.

And it annoys me that I just cannot get excited about the thought of a derby - I was out of love with football a little before lockdown, getting used to not going to games has almost become a habit

I want it to change and get excited again😂
 
I wonder if it'll be a sellout? It's doubtful considering Cardiff have hardly any fans watching them this season

By this time next week the blood will have returned from your legs to your head and you'll be back to your senses, and the only thing that will matter is beating those inbreds. I mean come on...Flint, Morrison, other assorted sub human undesirables in the crowd and on the pitch. They simply have to be put down.
 
Like most games, it could depend on who scores first - if we do, and early, we'll batter them. Them and it'll get tense. I still think/hope it'll be 3-1 to us mind.

They have sold out their allocation and so will we. The danger of empty seats will be this fckn covid pass thing breaking down in some form on the day.
 
Approaching the derby my thoughts are always pretty much the same...Oh fck, here we go again. Please dont lose.
