Former Swan Sam Ricketts believes that a win and a point could be enough to secure another season for the Swans<\/p>\n
“They’re on 30 points now so I’d say a win and possibly a draw will get them out of it,” Ricketts told the Evening Post.<\/p>\n
“There’s that many big sides taking all the points this year that 33 or 34 points might be enough, we’ll have to see.<\/p>\n
“It will be chop and change all the way until the end of the season,” said Ricketts.<\/p>\n
“It looks like it’s three from five at the minute.<\/p>\n
“But a few weeks ago, the form of the bottom five was that good that teams above started looking over their shoulders.<\/p>\n
“It’s up to us to drag some other sides in.<\/p>\n
“Possibly, on the last day of the season, at half-time three clubs will be going down and at full-time it could be another three.<\/p>\n
“It’s going to be exciting so we’ll have to wait and see.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been there and done it before,” he said.<\/p>\n
“You want to play for something and you want to play under pressure.<\/p>\n
“You’d rather be fighting at the other end of the table but we can’t rest on our laurels. We’ll be fighting to the last minute like we did with Hull a couple of years ago.<\/p>\n
“We stayed up on the last day of the season and it becomes a great achievement.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been back six weeks or so now at club level and I haven’t missed a Wales game since I’ve been away,” added the 30-year-old.<\/p>\n
“But to be out and playing again, you can’t beat that.<\/p>\n
“Neil’s a good player and then there’s Adam Matthews as well.<\/p>\n
“We’ve got competition for places, you can see that in the strength of the side on Wednesday even though we had injuries.<\/p>\n
“If one player is injured or suspended there’s another to come in.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
