After the last couple of games it’s been pretty unanimous, only fair to let people have a say after a win!

Is it? It was a poor performance, but we won and some unity wouldn't go amiss. 

Lee Sprinkler.

Five minutes pressing rinsed Swansea and transformed the game.

At the final whistle Lee opined, "The gaffer told me to force it. Sorry Swansea, can I spray you every week?"

2 things ,
A) I don't drink coffee , horrible stuff and  B) have you seen us lately , of course I need alcohol.

I'm really disappointed after assuming this thread was about a new tabloid newspaper for real ale drinkers.

I think he watches the FBC Pod , funny @Curr Avon  @headhunter & @Davefevs were discussing strikers needing rhythm through playing & Manning says exactly the same thing .  I think there must be a direct line to the Boss there .

Behaviours yourself!

Bristol City under 18's. Well done to make the semi final. First time in a very long time.

Is semi one or two legs?

One game, away at Manchester City on Saturday 6th April at 7pm: The FA Youth Cup - Fixtures - The FA Youth Cup | The FA

More, more, more...

Probably the name gives away

Are the margins small? Or, far away?

Only if you pass the Rene Gilmartin test for Irishness.

For example:

Goalscoring zone: final turd.

Implement used to hurl the ball into the final turd: long trow.

Honest pass into the final turd: true ball

I daresay that the Jacks will adopt a similar games plan on Sunday and unless Manning can devise a strategy then we’re looking at another home loss.

Not according to this recent article: 

Captain Matt Grimes believes Luke Williams' commitment to a possession-based style will help Swansea City reconnect with their fans.

Reckon they would do LJ until end of season haha 

LJ has taken years to become an overnight failure.

Big fire very near the ground. Sky have video but I can't link. Preston fans only 50 miles away too when they heard. Got to feel for those on trains or in hotels, and the ones by car. The smoke was likely toxic and not safe.

Something to discuss with my Preston supporting cousin.

Looking forward to seeing you @W-S-M Seagull. Actually think you talk some sense, so looking forward to seeing your matchup against Ian. 

It would be nice to see Mr S on a future podcast. I disagree with a lot of his points, but he frames them well.

I completely get that Mark but look at where we are....I hope I don't hear anyone say that we weren't moaning when we beat Southampton. It was one game. The form is horrendous and stats don't lie.

Look at the form table and tell me if anyone is believing in the BT & JL project.

Board deluded. Feel for Manning but the lad has not helped himself trying to adopt a completely different playing style and please don't talk about injuries tomorrow. Every club gets them.

I said after the Southampton game that QPR would present a completely different problem, which we failed to beat. Repeat against Cardiff and a limp performance against Wednesday has created a mini crisis. Tonight was far better, but I'm under no illusions about fan reaction if we lose to Swansea. I'm absolutely sick right now and stressed out after watching that game Tomo. I can't pretend we managed the game well in the last 10 minutes. I'm hopeful this is a positive turning point, despite a defeat and we come back stronger.

None of our strikers can play up front on their own. Not once has he played Wells & Conway together in a two man forward line. If he'd studied  footage he would know that it's worked previously & the players are happy with it. 

We played with a front 2 tonight to contain Ipswich, and it worked well until the substitutions, especially Burns introduction.

He needs to play to the strengths of the players he's got. 

But tonight he did. We played quick balls into the channels and scored goals. What would you have done differently with our attacking strategy?
