Season 21/22 Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers Match Thread

Some very complimentary comments on the Blackburn forum! These are 2 of my favourites!

“Beaten 1-0 by a pathetic, dysfunctional 10 man football team”.

“ So so frustrating. Swansea are utter shite. Desperately tried to hand us goals and we couldn't take advantage. In the end ironically the fact they went to 10 men didn't help our cause as it meant they didn't mess around with it at the back and we had all the ball and couldn't counter attack. Devastating loss”

Not that I give 2 fcks for them, but they pressed the panic button way too early, lumping the ball in blind as soon as we were down to 10 men. For a team in 2nd, THEY were total dogshyte.

I do like to gander at opposition forums when we win, purely for entertainment value and comments like these. It seems the general consensus on there was that we’re their guarantees 3 points this month where they have 5-6 tough games. Thankfully, that hasn’t gone to plan for them. They’ll drop slowly and hopefully out of the play offs come the end of the season.

“Devastating loss”. “We had all the ball”, “they went to 10 men”, but “Swansea were shite”.
How didn’t you win then?

Whether I go to Stoke next week hinges on this.

Looks like it's back on the cards now.

It's the hope that kills you

I think we will kick on from here.
I would say enjoy yourself in Stoke but even if we win no one enjoys themselves.

That attacking line up we started with will scare a lot of teams for the rest of the season.

You sure?

Ahh ...the desperation of those chasing promotion. There were plenty of posts like that, by us, last season as Automatic promotion fell through our fingers. Bless.

Can understand their point of view as must have viewed us as a definite banker away win
Shame it all went wrong for them. Their cheating and getting our man sent off probably undid them

I'd like to that confident but I can't recall more than 2 shots at goal even before the sending off. That wouldn't put shivers through many teams.

Excellent result against the odds.
But can we do it on a cold Tuesday night in Stoke?

Well someone had to say it.

 

[PSumbler]

It was a great result and a gritty performance.

We controlled the ball in the first half, Blackburn should really have scored though

Backs to the wall when Manning went off but again we were grateful for wasted finishes

Great to get a win but still plenty to work on
