The battle for solidity in the top six is next.





Russell Martin talks about the pain, the hurt, and the rewards : Burnley pre match 13th Oct 2022 16:59
Swansea City go in to Saturdays game at Burnley with Joe Allen unavailable and really now it seems his focus is on the World Cup with Wales. Jamie Paterson still has ten days to go before he can be considered for selection. 0



Swansea City in fine form for todays game against Burnley 15th Oct 2022 08:25
Swansea 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 20:09
We 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

Told the team that started to go out and correct their mistakes by all accounts.


All players make mistakes but it is up to the manager to correct any mistakes he makes in his set up/ selection.
We will have to see what happens on Tuesday night, will be glad to be at the ground watching instead of at home listening to the radio while isolating.

First 3 goals easily avoidable. Awful marking for the first two by the same player, a slip for the third.
Fine lines.

Yes, but 3 crucial moments for the goals could easily have been avoided. Schoolboy stuff.

I’ve just had a look at the highlights as I turned off from my comfy seat in my penthouse flat in NY before the end yesterday.

It’s not as clear cut as I thought it was going to be. It wasn’t a stamp as such, more a lifting and placing of the foot as he was going backwards. It looked well away from the player but only seen from the one angle. Ref seemed to be persuaded by the player’s getting excited though they may have seen it more clearly??

It’s a tough one and certainly wouldn’t be regarded a frivolous appeal. I reckon they’ll go for it, nothing to lose.

Nah 4 4 2 against certain teams, flood the middle keep it tight then when it gets loose change the formation to suit.

The only problem is we don't have out and out wingers 🤷

If you think about it 2 WB, 2 defensive .midfielders and 2 attacking midfielders we should have enough to flood the midfield and protect the flanks but obviously not working in unison.

I know I am in the minority, but I feel Cullen is a good finisher, even the gr8 AC said as much yesterday, perhaps we are using/playing him wrongly, old Gerd Muller rice never did much except pot it home.

To utilise a "finisher" we would need to get the ball into the box more often and much quicker.

Can you provide some evidence other than your own use of the word ?
The use of the word towards you and others collectively and why then if it’s an issue you continue to use it ?
