Very odd reading the board 08:22 - Oct 21 with 7396 viewsParlay

This is the most positive I've felt, probably ever, as a Swans fan.

Our team is great, the best we have ever had id say. We have a young and hungry manager who knows and understands what we are all about, top half of the Premier League and playing really well (if not getting the rewards as of late). Yet the forum once again is doom and gloom, i honestly cant put my finger on why.

Ive always maintained that the feeling on a forum never represents the true feeling of the masses and I hope this is the case once again as its shocking to read at times. The amount of eye rolls and disbelieving sighs I've done in the last 30 mins reading this beggars belief.

I for one am loving things at the moment, a very refreshing change from the one dimensional, heartless, lack lustre performances of the last 12 months of the Laudrup era.

It's hard yo avoid the conclusion that some posters on here clearly see themselves better equipped to lead and to organise our team and club so it begs the question.. What are you doing on an Internet site when your knowledge could be better employed by coaching our team.

Some staggering stuff in this thread.

What about the abuse question too phil..


Seems still prevalent..


Abuse questioned answered - not sure why I need to answer each post individually

Several posts have been reported over the few days since and removed and dealt with accordingly

If you wish to report any abuse then please do so

Perhaps I should have been less subtle like Darran with his "let's all laugh at the agenda boys" thread. A thread that started off well enough for him and then people started calling him out on it. Then ran to Phil. I'm a bit p*ssed off that his thread wasn't deleted but the first paragraph of a post of mine in this very thread for goading??? Darran's entire life is spent on here goading others and then misrepresenting their views to suit his own agenda.

And if Dimbleby hadn't left a provocative post about us "wannabe" managers then I wouldn't have been goaded into replying in the first place!

Would you care to offer up an explanation, Phil?

Yes I have taken a change of stance on the board as the two posts at the top of the board will tell you

Respond to the post in a way that it is made

To Perch - you're not letting it drop, that greatly disappoints me. T2C and I have had a long debate over the subject and he has told me he will let it go.

Thanks for the advice, but that would be insanely risky, as "going with my gut" has gotten me in hot water too many times lately.

They were all extremely mild and non-goading anyway, drab and colorless and unworthy of attention.

Kinda like this one, it just dawned on me.

Suppose ,at the moment, we re bring circumspect, all of us, and it's actually quite weird after all these months of invective .

It is good practice to communicate with those one loathes in a way that is not crossing the rubicon.

Possibly some testing months ahead depending on results.

In the meantime, I want to make it clear I have no objection to American chums misusing thevenglish language.

Color is one thing but humor quite another.

Keep your pecker up.


Even Americans abuse Americanisms. More to the formerly popular expression noted by WarwickHunt, above.

Many years ago, there was an expression in football [American football] used by many coaches to tell their players to stay strong -- "Keep your daubers up."

The word "dauber" came from a kind of paint brush and brushing technique consisting of poking at the canvas, or "daubing" paint, and was being used as a clever reference to an erect penis. So far so good.

One coach of a college team was on live TV], and, wanting to praise his players' courage, said this, mixing his metaphors wildly: "They've got daubers."

I nearly fell on the floor laughing.

Another example of this in currently underway.

We won 2-0 yesterday to take us into the top 6. And the main talking point is how "half the team have no clue how to pass forward" and "Monks tactics luckily worked this time (with ref to Carroll)".

The only mention of the good result and best ever start to a Prem season is either in response to the overwhelming negativity or indeed largely ignored.

Amazing.
