Queens Park Rangers v Swansea City rearranged details and FA Cup news
Originally scheduled for Saturday December 18th the game now is scheduled for an evening kick off in late January. QPR reported an excess amount of Covid positive tests to the football league and the game was postponed.
The game is now scheduled for Tuesday 25th January 2022 with a 7.45pm kick off. Always well supported away from home, and especially in London swans fans in the interim can now make plans for the trip to west London. As it stands English teams can still play in front of capacity crowds. In Wales they cannot. Since the Welsh Assembly ban on crowds at sporting events the swans have not fulfilled any fixtures. Fulham on Monday being the latest game to be cancelled. This means Swansea City’s next scheduled game is in the FA Cup against Southampton on Saturday, January 8th with a 5.30pm kick off.
This means if that game does go ahead the swans will not have played a competitive game for four weeks.

Swansea City : Grimes misses a penalty in a return to bad old ways An error strewn and tepid Swansea display ensured thousands left the stadium before the staff and players did their usual walk around at this end of season game. It wasn’t a good look as two players received red cards and any effort by the home side was lost in a static and frustrating display.
Gwyn’s Eye View : Swansea City v MillwallGlyn is back with his favourite stats as we build up to the last game of the season. That comes in the form of Millwall who it seems are close to selling their requested 1,148 allocation, so its down to the Jack Army to do their bit this bank holiday weekend.
The fate today’s Swansea footballers would never have to endure Swansea City bring this season to a close on Saturday with a home game against Millwall. However, what about those bygone days when footballers had no choice but to go down the pit after their career ended, or open a toy shop, pub or retrain ? That thought would petrify todays modern footballer.
