| Burnley v Swansea City : Matchday Thread 2022/23 00:28 - Oct 9 with 19937 views | NotLoyal | The battle for solidity in the top six is next. Swansea City in fine form for todays game against Burnley 15th Oct 2022 08:25Swansea City go in todays game against Burnley on a fine run of form, especially when it comes to winning games away from home of late. The test at turf moor today will be one of the hardest of the season but a win today for the swans would consolidate their position in the top six, a loss could see them fall dramatically if results go against them. 0 The Ref - Stephen Martin will be the man in charge when Swansea City travel to Burnley on Saturday (3pm kick-off). Staffordshire-born Martin has officiating in his blood with his father and grandfather blowing the whistle in the Football League. He first took up refereeing in 2002 and had made it to step five of the football pyramid within six years. He joined the National List of Referees ahead of the 2012-13 season and took charge of his first Championship match in January of that campaign. In 2015, he was included in the list of Select Group 2 officials. This will be the thirteenth time he has taken charge of a Swans games. Ten of the previous contests were league matches and the most recent of these was the Swans first home match of the campaign against Blackburn Rovers. On that occasion, Martin handed out four bookings with yellows shown to Jay Fulton, Michael Obafemi and Joel Piroe as well as Rovers’ Sam Gallagher. So far this season, he has taken charge of eight games handing out 27 yellow cards but no reds. On Saturday, he will be assisted by Mark Dwyer and Matthew Smith. Dean Whitestone will be the fourth official. Burnley: Arijanet Muric, Jack Cork (captain), Ian Maatsen, Nathan Tella, Vitinho, Josh Brownhill, Anass Zaroury, Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Josh Cullen, Jordan Beyer, Jay Rodriguez. Subs: Bailey Peacock-Farrell, Charlie Taylor, Johann Berg Gudmundsson, Ashley Barnes, Manuel Benson, Samuel Bastien, CJ Egan-Riley. Swansea City: Steven Benda; Nathan Wood, Ben Cabango, Kyle Naughton; Joel Latibeaudiere, Jay Fulton, Matt Grimes (captain), Matty Sorinola; Olivier Ntcham, Joel Piroe; Michael Obafemi. Subs: Andy Fisher, Harry Darling, Luke Cundle, Liam Cullen, Armstrong Oko-Flex, Fin Stevens, Ollie Cooper. Swansea City resort to type and lose their way in Lancashire 15th Oct 2022 20:09We have seen some poor performances this season from Swansea City, and todays annihilation at Burnley was right up there. The swans didn’t turn up, they didn’t care and they couldn’t process a team who had far more than they did in energy and desire. It was a real ‘thumping back down to earth bump’ that once again will test the credentials of Russell Martin over the coming days. 0

We are deluded and it starts with Grimesy.,the one player guaranteed to slow everything down to walking pace. We seem to think we can stroll 5hrough games and stroke th ball around. It doesn’t work like that. This is disgusting I’m afraid and those believing we should give another contract to Martin are crazy. We cannot play like this and Martin needs to understand that. Why bring in loan players an£ not play them Why have Cullen in the squad at all Basics |  |

My point is that they’re making us shite with their pace and the way they press us. That’s why we are making mistakes because we’ve no time on the ball. |  |

Sounds as if a number of players are hiding. Get some legs on the pitch so we can have an out ball we can build on. |  | |  |
| Burnley v Swansea City : Matchday Thread 2022/23 on 16:05 - Oct 15 with 1282 views | ReslovenSwan1 | This is the Martin model. When under greatest pressure he goes on a winning streak. Then a big defeat. A bad run then a winning run. He is a mid table manager with no indication he can oversea a long unbeaten run. Look at his record with Swansea and MK Dons. Big thrashings are a common feature. The selection of Naughton over Darling is style over substance and part of this mantra. [Post edited 15 Oct 2022 16:07]

We have been far to slow and ponderous to be entertained today. We have struggled at the back today to break through the lines because Burnley press to good for us. But they haven't had to work to hard because our tempo is slow. I would personally make 4 changes at half time, bring on Stevens/Darling/Cundle and Cooper just to stop us going down to ten. |  |

3-0 down and Grimes just causally walks to take a corner. I would want to see my captain rush to take that. [Post edited 15 Oct 2022 16:16]

Burnley are decent but no Fulham . We’ve committed defensive suicide and handed them goals on a plate. |  |
