Speaks volumes about so many things.

Birmingham lost last 3 games including Port Vale at home, dreadful form but a recognised, respected playing style and identity.

Despite us sitting in 7th to their lowly 11th, and despite our smash n grab against (an albeit poor) Forest on the night, the proper itks still expect us to lose.

Speaks volumes about our lack of true playing identity - nobody knows what version of our immensely talented, richly assembled, top quartile, massive squad is turning up.

And for that reason, just like the majority of proper Swans fans’ predictions : 3-1 Brum.

Fuck off you sad little bluebird

Away tickets shambles. Late purchases haven't been sent on the coach, 50 fans or so having to just lurk whilst something is sorted out

 

[Malaga]

Missing this one to watch our beloved Los Boquerones smash the Cadiz scum.
Just like our squinty eyed poorer relations the Cadizians are the laughing stock, reviled and ridiculed by all of Spain - heck their name looks n sounds like Cadiff.

Uppa Swans (2-1) and Uppa Los Boquerones (2-1)

Since when have you been a malaguista?

Good starting 11 IMO, could get something here if we play with Wednesday's second half intensity. COYS!

He is so much of a Malaguista that he doesn't even know when they are playing

Ended up getting in fairly smoothly once they realised what had happened, fair play. I was stood with Eom's translator for most of it!

 

[Muteswan]

Great piece on Sky with Vig showing cameras around training ground.

 

[Jackareme]

They have left Kyogo on the bench, good news for us that. Keep an eye on Iwata though

And Patrick Roberts

 

[Martyn - Derwydd]

Got a link for that Muteswan?

 

[Cooperman]

Seeing Stamenic is a huge boost, one I wasn’t expecting. And look at that bench, since when have we had such depth?

 

[Baron Goblet]

That last game was a belter. BIrmingham will be low on form and hopefully make mistakes. The Hull game showed how we can struggle to close out teams and both Hull and Forest got a lot of chances and breaks. I can see this being a cagey affair until the last 30 minutes or so. SCFC to win by one goal.

It was on the lead up to the game .

 

[CygnusX1]

Let’s ‘av it then
1-3 Swans

 

[SeaJack]

What a deliciously sumptuous feast of football we put on, on Wednesday against Forest.

Needless to say that I was over the moon in triplicate when the winning goal from Burgess went in.

Shades of the second leg of the playoff semifinal against them who, for all of the millions that have been pumped into their squad, they didn’t exactly pull up any trees on the night.

So, onto today’s proceedings, and I get the feeling that the wind is definitely building in the sails of HMS Swansea City and we’re nigh on ready to set sail into playoff territory, maybe even the automatics.

Whatever happens, it will be a great game to watch. COYS.

I'm on SwansTV. No Anthony O'C! Just stadium noise. Not complaining mind.
