The hateful eyes of the championship, every fan throughout the land will want the swans to lose this one.
Tuesday 9th March 2021 Kick off 6pm Ewood Park, Blackburn

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.

Why defend him boundy. He has and is costing us.It ain’t fair on anyone. He is utterly gash . His defenders fear him .clear as day.
I tell you why , anyone else post it fine , I agree it was his poor kick out of the area straight to a Blackburn player and an equally bad impersonation of a goal keeper that cost us the goal but I've yet to read one post of positivity after or during games by Dwight, look at the trouble he's taken to find clips of previous indiscretions , You're consistent in your opinion. Dwight just appears when there's something to beat the Club or player with .

Thank christ that's over. I'm going to go and scratch my eyeballs with a fork as a bit of light relief.
Another god awful performance, but a decent point.
Something needs to change. I don't know or even much care what, but we can't keep playing those players, in that formation, and continue to pick up results.

It was no trouble to find them. The only trouble was deciding which clips to use to illustrate my point.
Someone on Twitter called it tournament football and they were right. Keep it tight. Give little away. Try and nick a goal or two. It's what he knows, but it's f*cking dull to watch and leaves you little option if you can't keep it tight.
A team knocking on the door of the autos should have its fans bouncing, even if they can't be in the stadium. Watching us for most of Cooper's tenure has been a chore, even given where we are in the league.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Good point we looked tired which is understandable but battled away.
Freddy was not at his best but nobody was really like Wyndham always says any point away from home is a good one.
There are enough people knocking the club at the moment without our own fans joining in we all need to stick together.

The run of poor form continues. I ended up very grateful for the point. I suppose we could say that some in our defence had a good game.

A decent point on the face of it given the heavy workload. I however think fans would be delighted if Brentford were held to a draw by Blackburn on the weekend. This game had to be won. For every draw v Balckburn means Swansea will have to win at Reading Watford and Bournmouth.

He melts away when we are doing well Boundy, just a wind up merchant. His opinions can be valid but they are very unbalanced and he has no interest in anything positive.

That was awful. I can't think of any player that stood out tonight. Possibly Roberts, possibly Cabango. But no others. Front two haven't got a sprint between them. Not hungry enough. Why? Midfield can't string half a dozen passes together. Why? Woodman can't pass if under any kind of pressure. Why? It has to change. Quickly. If we do go up, and I would love it if we do, the squad will need a total overhaul. Only Roberts and possibly Cabango and Bennett would be good enough. Phew.
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.

Because none of the other teams have played anywhere near as many games as us. We are poor, ignore our place because we have been incredibly lucky.

That’s not what I said at all. We are dire to watch. But we are grinding out results and we are exactly where every other club below us wishes they were. I was just commenting on your incessant whinging. We don’t hear from you when we win. It’s radio silence.
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.

Wont argue that we were awful to watrch tonight. But another point towards our target. Win at home draw away is usually promotion form. As I keep saying has Cooper bben given a target of getting us promoted this season.....however he gets resukts?
Whilst we as fans are "unhappy" with the lack of entertainment value i expect those who pay the piper are happy with the tune Cooper is playing as we are in touching distance of automatic promotion and the "riches" it brings. That said we are back to the #2old#2 days of dupporting the Swans where we were often holding ono for a 1 nil win or trying to keep the draw.
Playing like strangers atm and not very good ones either.How we are joint 2nd is unbelievable Jeff , where's the football gone ,that was bloody awful to watch

The sudden and dramatic change in performances coincides with the arrival of Hourihane. We effectively play with 10 men for most of the match as he's only ever involved during a set piece.

Sums it up. The Whittaker and Ariolla signings are looking like disasters considering we are a team competing for top 2.
I can’t see how he gets us going again. We have been incredibly lucky to be picking up points, it’s unbelievable really.
If I was a manager, I would want the signings to be mine.

Not gonna get away with his type of play in the premiership and has much has it pain's me to say it, I think we'll fall away in the playoff's should we get there, you get what you deserve and we don't deserve 2nd spot.
