Lew-T

Let’s be honest here, Swansea are absolutely crap. 
 

Win today changes nothing. The performance and tactics again not good enough. Take the win now though to temporarily stop the rot.

Huddersfield winning.

Bristol fans and their team will be up for this, of that you can be sure. We'll do well to get a point out of this game.

Going to be a tough game, would love a win to set us up for next Saturday but I think a draw will probably be the outcome. Is the away allocation sold out?

I somehow doubt it. Reckon it could be our lowest gate of the season in the league.

Nope.

It's ok we will win on Sunday and everything will be ok and manning will be over to the home fans fist pumping.

I really hope not. But I wouldn’t be at all surprised.

And I would have liked to have seen Jimmy get his 700th test wicket in better circumstances!

Well after the excitement of the first test, what’s followed that has been pretty poor really.

The middle order has been non existent.

I can’t even bring myself to listen to it.

Ball had two knockdowns and was the aggressor throughout that fight. Credit to NB, he didn’t stop going.

Should have won that no question.

Ball absolutely robbed.

I’ll scribe again:

- Impressed with U18s honesty, work rate and desire to compete

- Thinks the level of championship is so high that U18 to champ is rare but if good enough they will play

- Asked how often the U18s train with the first team - didn’t really answer. Referenced Jamie Knight-Lebel, Yeboah and Nelson - one of whom isn’t an 18 and one who was busted down?

- Cornick fit plus one unspecified

- Asked why form fluctuates “Psychological - it’s been there the whole season not just since we came in”. QPR didn’t have time to work tactically and lacking Twine against the block

- “Annoyingly my phone blew up the other night complimenting how good the lads were defensively” 

- Has spoken a lot about taking responsibility because they give the lads everything and they have to take responsibility - lads are all in and we’re moving in the right direction

- Piercy asked whose decision it was that players were fit. LM said it was a collective but he’s not a medical expert

- Naismith and Twine not trained (so assume it’s Tanner back)

- My favourite quote “It’s very hard for me to effect things in game” (Side note: he clearly reads the forum - hi Liam - and while you’re here - that’s literally your job)

- Thinks he’s learnt and grown while here. Obsesses on reflection and analysis, works too hard which is both a strength and weakness. 
 

- Mentioned recent history of the club and laughed “the second half thing” - assumedly a drop in second half which he thinks may be cultural from the tone? (Side note: since he took over!)

- Piercy asked re supporters reaction at Cardiff and pressure - can’t control it so don’t try to think about it, all was great 3 games ago and his energy is better served doing his job

- Doesn’t just look at results although you have to win games, most sides in the league according to Brian have had 6-7-8 games without winning. It’s hard to know how players react before they have that kind of run and when they do it’s whether it’s the players or what they do

- The league table is not looked at too much as not sure what it’ll give him. Concentrates on winning the next game and won’t change just because lost three in a row

- Tommy or Nakhi? There’s a possibility of both from the start, hasn’t picked the team yet

- Cams injury isn’t major and will be managed to end of season

I scrolled down the thread before watching the presser this time. I’m glad I did and thanks for sharing… don’t think I’m gonna bother watching.

Some poor answers there imo. How many times is he gonna say “Oh it was great 3 games ago”. It was 2 games, 3 games and now 4 games.

Facebook.

People on Facebook posting their life stories, all for a bit of attention. I’ve actually seen people post photos of their deceased relatives hands.

Come on, that moment should stay private.

So can I assume just the one meeting or more ?

could just be you let him at the wrong time, we all have bad days where people’s opinions might be different to how we actually are.

It was the one occasion in the summer. And yeah I get that, just didn’t really like what I was hearing.

Don’t think anything else needs to said.

So which is it ? Do you know him and have done for some time or you’ve just met him ?

 

The latter.

Have you actually spoken to him or met him or know him personally?

 

Yes since you ask.

Get the impression Conway is a bit of a dick in all honesty. I’m sure he will do well elsewhere, but for the relatively short time in our first team, he thinks he is way above our station.

It’s Ipswich season isn’t it?

This is entertainment Liam, this is what we love to see.

That’s what happens when you beat a man.

More of the same please…

No way.

I can see them going more direct a bit this half. 

Keep your head.

Bloody hell we did something.

Decent start yeah, we haven’t conceded. But it’s still pretty drab.

I do find it amusing when Sky commentators talk about us like they watch us every week.
