I can't see this stopping. People are saying they won't keep it up, but what other league 1 teams have squads waiting to come into their own? The scum actually have a lot of experience to come into their side if the youngsters start wanning. Robinson, Chambers, Ng all on bench today for example.
I'm amazed the likes of salech, Robertson haven't been sold. They haven't brought anyone in but have done well to keep hold of squad. They'd still struggle massively in the champ tho. Will lose the manager earlier than they thought too if he keeps it up
 
Forget it's still August too mind but they've scored a lot of goals and barely conceded any
 
I know you can only play whats in front of you, but they have had an easy start.

Peterborough 24th (Bottom)
Port Vale 23rd
Rotherham 19th
Wimbledon 12th
Luton 7th
Plymouth 21st.

Luton is the only tough game in the division they've had so far and they did well and won that one. Wait and see once they have had a tough run. Winning breeds confidence though, so the start should assist them. Looking like a play-off place is well within their reach, auto's depends on how they perform against top end rivals.
 
What we're also going to have to get used to after a generation of dominance of it from our perspective is them dominating national team squads. Colwill (x2), Ashford, Kpakio, Lawlor, Davies, King and others as well ones who've been at their academy like Biancheri / Crew could be in the Wales squad for the next decade, while we could be in a for a fairly barren period.

Fair point - didn't realise the teams they played were that bad

Yep, none of them anywhere near the quality of what we produced mind.

Got to remember mind that they're now in a league where they'd expect to dominate. They were all useless last year in the champ.

I could see colwill snr getting a move to a Blackburn type side. They're a funny bunch tho, they all wanted him sold
For nothing last season

Kpakio I'd say is certainly going onto big things
 
I listened to a big chunk of the game while stuck in traffic, they’re doing very well at the moment especially when the age of the team s taken in to account. It’s at a lower level, but if they carry on like this they’ll have a good season.

More importantly, Swans had a good win today and are hovering just outside the play offs. Great stuff.
