Swansea City v Birmingham City : Matchday Thread UPDATED 23:53 - Mar 16 with 8805 viewsNotLoyal

It’s the last game before the next game, and despite a few let downs Swansea City are beginning to get things flowing a bit. Well, not really but they do score goals when they want to by all accounts. After a disastrous trip to Blackpool, then an astonishing performance against Peterborough United, we return to the B’s, not Brentford but the Blue Birmingham’s. Anything can happen, but It probably won’t.

It’s a 3pm kick off at the newly named stadium on Saturday 19th March 2022

Nondescript, toothless and lucky. That was Swansea City this afternoon 19th Mar 2022 17:15
To say this wasn’t a Swansea City classic would be the understatement of the season in a very slow and yet again ponderous ninety minutes or so at the swansea.com stadium. For Swansea it was a game of loose passes, a total lack of energy and when it’s all summed up a demonstration of how mundane Russell Martin’s style of play can be when it doesn’t click. 0



Swansea City: Andy Fisher; Ben Cabango, Kyle Naughton, Finley Burns; Cyrus Christie, Matt Grimes (captain), Olivier Ntcham, Hannes Wolf; Jamie Paterson, Joel Piroe, Michael Obafemi.

Substitutes: Ben Hamer, Jay Fulton, Korey Smith, Kyle Joseph, Nathanael Ogbeta, Joel Latibeaudiere, Cameron Congreve.

Birmingham City: Neil Etheridge, Maxime Colin, Marc Roberts, Tahith Chong, Scott Hogan, Gary Gardner (captain), Juninho Bacuna, Jordan Graham, Onel Hernandez, Ivan Sunjic, Nico Gordon.

Substitutes: Zack Jeacock, Ryan Woods, Taylor Richards, Lukas Jutkiewicz, Jeremie Bela, Jordan James, Marcel Oakley.

Much more to follow.

It was potentially the most dire and boring performance we have seen from the swans this season. Even at the end, and for the first time possibly boo’s greeted the final whistle. But we do have to look at the reasons for such a poor showing after a hard fought win in midweek. 1

Thoe who support Martin and his troops worry me. Fisher was the first he signed in.He couldn't wait to dump Hamer who was doing OK.

Turns out it was the fixture list's fault. Just need to buy him more players. Nothing wrong with the manager or the system.

The judgement of most fans,armchair,pouffe,Brisbane grifters or vile scum would be that Fisher is abject and in Hamer we are seeing a good ,honest pro having his career ripped apart.
Ia ma seething over Martin frankly but try not to get too offensive.Its not easy to see as I really do feel for some of our players.Imagine them with a captain worthy of a name and not with a bad haircut and lacking he courage to speak up for the players.
You can see what Garry Monk was about really,if you think about it.

Obviously not! Were you there!?

he atmosphere was surprisingly good considering the performance on the pitch. The East stand really got behind the team and it got niggly with away fans second half (rumours of an unsavoury incident reported to stewards too).

As I say Brum should have scored at least 5. That doesn't make for a boring game. It makes for an excruciating, nerve wracking one.


'Rumours of an unsavoury incident'

By that response I have to assume you've got the wrong end of the stick.

I wasn't referring to any skirmishes between the fans if that's what you're inferring.

Not often I disagree with you cat, but thought Ogbeta's crossing was a step up and looked really promising, nice and early and in the danger areas. A yes from me.


Oh the crossing may have been good if there was anyone near where he crossed the ball to. They are only danger areas if we have a player there, otherwise it's a pass to the opposition.

I will agree, if anybody had made a near post run those balls in would be dangerous.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

First three crosses were rushed, and probably to be expected from a nervous young player making his home debut. The ones after that were pretty decent.

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.

I had a text telling me Pato was out.

I immediately backed 0-0 at 11/1.

With the ball as an attacking force the game panned out exactly as I expected. What I didn’t account for was how many chances we would present them.

Abysmal.

Should never do 0 0 should always do no goalscorer which is usually around same price and if there is an own goal and game finishes 1 0 you get your money back if you do 00 you lose your money...

That’s at a bookies. Max I can win at a bookies is around $10.

I back on the exchange, it’s all priced in. You get higher odds for 0-0 and under 0.5 goals (which is what I backed). No goal scorer was 11.50 and liquidity always poor, where as I got a mixture of 12.00 and 12.50.

Obviously meant combined travel for both games as they got back from Peterborough at 3.00 a.m, same time as supporters

It’s 2022. Even if she had balls she could still be his auntie if she felt like it and you’d be a bigot for suggesting a woman can’t have massive dangly testicles.
