Swansea City away match thread

[RedRock]

Superb 3 points. Well done lads.

[cotswoldred2]

Fabulous.....if we had lost it would have been a poor start to the season, this win makes it  a good start, just need some luck at home and we be just fine.

Guess what? Nige knows what he’s doing.

Imagine if he was given the resources others in his role have had.

Great way to go into the international break.

It really makes me sad to think exactly that, wtf is SL playing at, even a small piece of the Scott money would have freed up wages for a free transfer or a loanee or 3, AHH another case at Bristol City of what could have been!

[Northern Red]

He might not be banging the goals in, but Nahki doesn't half justify his selection with his workrate. And when he went off Cornick matched his effort.

[Brann-red]

Thoroughly deserved win . Referee sorted his life out in the 2nd half and wasn’t as bad as first half . 
16 thousand attendance. Didn’t realise they had such poor support

I’m being deadly serious. He needs to be looked at for match fixing. Genuinely. 

Really?  And there’s Swansea thinking they should have had a point if penalty given (by same Ref)

Job done. Onto the next one. 

[DaveF]

Starting to see a Pearson team more and more, exciting performance.

[adamski]

Let's hope the ref sends in the result paperwork on time...hate to go too early on this one

Cornick was excellent.

Chased everything, pestered their centre backs & won a smart foul.

Ideal bloke to bring on when Nakhi is flagging.

Same as at Millwall.  Fantastic.

Just seen the goal, great play by Sykes but awful defending from them. 

Stream please!!!

Always a 'but' from you innit?

[ralphindevon]

What a terrific boost going into the break.

2 home games after the break, we must have the confidence to turn around our home form now, win those and things will look very rosy

Don't use his till, unless you've got all day.

[Dodgy_Giefer]

Great win! Absolutely murdered them for an hour. We should’ve gone on to destroy them imo. Frustrating that it was a bit of a nervy finish. Time to bring our away form home! 

[lenred]

So so so good to win before a two week break

We should have had a penalty 2nd half too quite possibly would have to see it again.

3 in a half disallowed is quite some going however.

[Banjo Island]

Fantastic result what a tonic

Very, very good today. 

Watched first half no sound and on/off but we looked desperately unlucky to go in at HT at 1-0 down. We really dominated that half. Some fantastic football too at times. Very poor goal to concede though and still the worry going forwards, despite the midfield 3 playing well, teams can get through the middle too easily at times...

Second half, came out strong and what an early period, making it count with the 2 winning goals. After that was a professional, gritty, nasty at times, performance to see the game out. Won't get carried away as Swansea have had a poor start to season and are an opponent that probably suits our game and some of our players style of game. But still an excellent win.

MOL - 7 - Solid

TGH - 6 - In and out the game, almost cost us over playing at one point.

Vyner - 7 - Solid game to mark new contract

Naismith - 5 - Dropped off today, beaten for their goal, very scrappy, rushed and panicky at times. Potentially lucky not to concede a pen for handball.

Pring - 8 - Growing into season, brilliant today.

James - 7 - James doing what James does - Solid.

Williams - 7 - Best game this season. Great vision to set up Sykes for first goal.

Knight - 8 - Doesn't stop running, working and linking. Excellent again.

Bell - 8 - Brilliant today, got in behind first half well and unlucky not to have an assist to his name. Brilliant run and finish for his goal. 

Sykes - 8 - Also brilliant today, constant threat. Composed finish for the first goal.

Wells - 7 - Another menace, worked tirelessly. Linked well and unlucky not to score, but will probably be disappointed with some chances.

To go to Swansea and put in a performance like that was incredible. 

Very rarely can we almost give every player at least an 8 but today I think we almost can.

8 ?

 

Sykes has to have a 10

 

Superb 

[cotswoldred2]

Just watched the goals ...thanks Nick, top man, two very good finishes Bell sending it back from where it came from...class. Loved Sykes putting a Swan defender on the ground who waves for a foull ...nowhere near him.

That was class, well done Nige, best manager we’ve had since Danny Wilson.  But again showed that if we had gone for it yesterday with a couple more including a striker we would be really up there. 

Robo is that you?

And there are City fans thinking they should have had a man advantage long before that even happened, therefore it wouldn't have happened with some competent refereeing in the first place....

Just saying...
