You should have a bit too much for us in our current incarnations, but it’s a funny old game. A draw would do me nicely. We had a better team both when we beat you at the lib in league 1 and the championship, that’s for sure. We never win at your place, although we incredibly nearly done Revies amazing team in 1970.
You coming down? |
Yes I'll be at the game as I was in 2011 when the Swans battered us 3-0. Scott Sinclair ran us ragged & scored twice if my memory serves me right.
I remember that 1970 FA Cup game when we were very fortunate to win the game. With 15 minutes to go Allan Clarke said something to big Mel Nurse who promptly flattened Clarke. Nurse was sent off, Giles scored from the penalty spot then Mick Jones got the winner in the last few minutes when you were down to ten men.
Btw I pass through Monmouth on our regular visits to our good friends in Abergavenny [Post edited 19 Aug 2018 22:02]

I have had a nose at Leeds forums. They are hoping Grimes starts for us. They think he's awful.
Hope he doesn't start. |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Can't imagine that he would. Might be on the bench if Declan John still isn't fit? | | | |

Second of 3 fixtures in 9 days, and a 46 fixture division, Swans surely have to make as many changes as we possibly can while still being somewhat competitive. Worst (and most worrisome) problem we have now is that McBurnie can't be one of them, unless Potter wants to try something crazy like Asoro at striker.
But surely McKay, and probably
Celina, Fulton, Carroll, Olssen, and Roberts need a day off, either Tuesday or Saturday. |  |

lets see some of them put a shift in with some quality before we start giving them a day off | | | |

How much rotation do Championship sides normally do? Playing twice a week is the norm down here. | | | |

A lot of the big European teams play more or less the same side in league and champions league games. So no different to them. Young fit players should be able to play twice a week. | |

Nearly the goal of the season, if only Saiz had leathered the ball first time without taking a couple of touches.
Your ex-player much involved

Carl was a good footballer from when he joined us as a 17yo. Scored 26 goals in 150+ appearances whilst at ER. I believe he continued to play football into his 40's | | | |

I’ll tell you something you probably don’t know.
Brian Clough said to Carl after he’d been at Leeds for a few weeks, “if I’d known you were at the club son I’d never have signed Duncan McKenzie.” | |

Watched us play Leeds on 5 different occasions, 3 at home, which we won, and two away, which we lost.
. The first game was away in the FA cup in 1970 when we narrowly lost 2-1 to the great Revie side of that era. We were doing very well and went 1 up until Mel Nurse was sent off in the second half after clashing with Alan Clarke.
Interesting write up of that game attached.

I was at that cup game in 1970, and I seem to remember when the ref sent Mel off, he pulled his shirt up and showed the ref a great big mark on his chest where Clarke had kicked him. Saying that, he laid Clarke out a treat. Great day out that. Nine hours to get to Leeds in the coach. 🙄
We’re gonna struggle tomorrow. |  | | |

I remember the tension, watching Grandstand with text style updates, Dennis Lowe ( I think, Cpt. Mannering type)reported at the final score, couldn't help but laugh when his face appeared at the end though gutted |  | | |
