RADIO Talk Sport 2 LIVE commentary
It’s that ‘extra’ game on bilious Brentford that raises its ugly head. Fresh from the glare of the man child exploding and his tantrum over a penalty given away by his ridiculous decision to try and win a game he had no right to win. It’s Blackburn v Swansea.
Match Officials ROBERT JONES Ian Hussin and Adrian Holmes Fourth Official : Geoff Eltringham
Merseyside official Jones also took charge of the Swans twice last season, having the whistle for the win over Cardiff and the draw against West Brom at the Liberty Stadium. His only other previous Swansea game was the Carabao Cup clash with MK Dons in 2017, which the Swans won 4-1. Jones, who has refereed in the Championship since 2017, will be assisted by Ian Hussin and Adrian Holmes, while Geoff Eltringham is the fourth official. Robert Jones would like to make it known he has never played rugby. However, he has secretly stated he owes Swansea City a penalty or two and will definitely have that in the back of his mind.
The game has been rescheduled because Tony left the taps on for the last game and flooded the ground, strangely enough the once competent drainage system and under soil heating failed to work, allegedly because it wasn’t on, allegedly because the club couldn’t afford it, allegedly.
Tony’s textbook tactical tampering
As we can see swans tv are showing the game to season ticket holders who live in a light green market who hold season tickets between rows F and K. Personally I think this is scant reward for these people who have been in the glare of the yellow market since June 2020. I think it’s time there was a strongly worded letter sent from the red market to the club possibly moaning about something just for the sake of it. Legal action could happen. 😂 Not. Or even twice. Send the same letter twice or two different ones. In the days before markets there were markets but they were not called markets. It’s odd there is still a dark market, this sounds terrible and isn’t a place at would want to be without a torch. Long live the partially fluid, non gender, off purple, let’s have drugs market. It’s the place to be.
FORM GUIDE Blackburn have won one of their last six games, Swansea two out of their last six, oooops ! silly me, I meant four from their last six games. In their last six games Swansea lost at home to Middlesbrough 2-1, Oh damn, so sorry, I’m confused so easily these days, in their last game Swansea beat Middlesbrough 2-1, and Blackburn won away at Millwall 2-0.
The last time Blackburn beat Swansea in the league was in 2011, the score was 4-2:in the premier league. Back in October the swans beat Blackburn 2-0 at the Liberty. That premier league win for Blackburn in 2011 was the first time the sides had met since 1984. Since then games have ended either in a draw or a Swansea win.

Game ended 1-1, positively another point closer to promotion, negatively, read the thread.
Freddie contributed twice to their goal - first, he kicks out of defence straight to a Blackburn player. Then he lets a half-shot go through his legs. Hopeless.
Never mind we have another penalty. Well done Andre.

Some will still continue to defend Woodman. He is a very poor goalkeeper at this level. I didn't comment on his pathetic attempt to save the mildly deflected shot in the previous game where his weight was shifted in the correct direction long before the ball went past him, yet he gave up on it the split second he saw the deflection.
Now another goal today. I'm sure he was at fault in the game before Middlesbrough as well. Benda must be wondering just what he has to do to get a game.

Benda needs to get fit first.
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.
Brentford and Watford are too strong. These games have to be won. Swansea are third favourites but with a 5 point gap that changes. Getting a win at Watford is a big ask. Much easier to beat Blackburn.

Well then, whoever is next in line. This goalkeeper is costing us a goal every game at the moment. It's unforgivable. It is not as if his distribution makes up for his lack of ability in other areas. His distribution is the worst we have seen from a "first choice" Swansea goalkeeper in over a decade.

He’s been great for most of the season but his form has dipped massively. Particularly his kicking which has been awful.

I've largely sat out of the Woodman debate because some of our fans have inexplicably raised him to Sainthood, but I largely agree.
Far too many of the goals we concede I find myself saying "keeper has to do better there". Bang average championship keeper. You're right about the goal on Saturday too.
