Everything Russell Martin said after defeating Huddersfield Town
It was another win for the Swans against a difficult opponent in Huddersfield Town at the Swansea.Com Stadium this afternoon. Despite numerous chances and hitting the woodwork the home side had to rely on a Ryan Manning deflected shot to take the three points.
The Terriers rarely threatened and clearly came for the point, unfortunately for them their tactics backfired in the second half as the Swans increased the pressure on the Yorkshire side. Some will say this win was a slight regression back to the Swansea City that generally performs in this way after a good run of games. Others will say it confirms that the head coach has learned from his previous mistakes and the win was well deserved.

We will cover the game in far more detail in the morning and look forward to the Swans next encounter at home to Preston on Wednesday night.
What to read next:
Swansea City : On the cusp in a very good way ! Two players who have come to Swansea City in the last two seasons from London clubs have earned a position on the clubs retained list this weekend. Both are considered exceptional talents by the Swans academy, and their dream remains alive to become full professional players in the first team squad.
Swans confirm who is staying and congratulations Abdulai ! As we stated this morning Swansea City have released their retained list and also confirmed the signing of Joe Allen for another year. The midfielder has been sitting on an offer for some weeks but indicated via a third party to us he would sign.
Swans retained list and Owain Tudur Jones on Paul Watson We understand that the Swans retained list will be announced today or at the latest on Saturday. And of course that includes players that will be released by the club from the academy and first team squad. So, the Swans plans and immediate future regards players coming in will become much clearer. Or at least the areas they need to target.
Swansea City : Where are the Swans today on all their player business ? Bar the Macaulay Langstaff news there has been little of any concrete info in the offing this week. Mind you that alone caused a stir. Between now and the transfer window opening on June 14th, which is the date for the European Championships to start there will be little to speculate on.
Swansea City : The confusing decision making for a whole season It was a pretty poor end to what can only be described as a disappointing football season for Swansea City. The defeat to Millwall yesterday was a display that has frustrated Swansea City supporters all season. A lack of effort, intensity and desire rewarding the home support with yet another home loss.
