The u23 game V TNS to be shown on tele
at 21:10 20 Jan 2024

TNS beat Cymru Prem teams by 4 or 5 goals regularly. They're so far above the rest of the league it's a joke.

Harsh scoreline with the two late goals. They named their strongest team while we had to put out a scratch side with no striker and players returning from injury. Game played on a hard plastic pitch that only benefited the favourites who have an identical one in their stadium. Linesmen were only looking one way.

Better team did win but on another day it could have been a much closer contest.

What do we do with Jerry
at 12:54 16 Jan 2024

Yates has already played twice as much football for us as Whittaker did in the 3 seasons he was here. Difficult comparison to make. When Yates was Whittaker's age he was struggling to break through at Rotherham not lighting up the Championship. He's in his prime years, has been given ample opportunities, and can't do the basics up front to help his team.

If he could get himself up to the dinner table he wouldn't be feeding off the floor every week. He had another awful game.

How does a football club that loses £20m in a year fund anything else?

Can't score if you don't shoot, and we have regularly given the opportunities to other clubs' players. Cabango was lucky that Wilmot got injured and then Guehi was shambolic when he arrived. Bang average Luke Cundle given plenty of minutes over (bang average) Ollie Cooper last season, helping Wolves rather than ourselves. Azeem Abdulai looking at loan players acquired for the bench in both his main and backup positions, little hope even without the injury.

Norrington-Davies was let go at 16. Preston's keeper last night was released. Ryan Hedges played 43 games for Blackburn last season, they finished above us.

4 or 5 PL/top Championship players passed over would be insane for a club our size. Heads would justifiably roll.

His name is spelled Микола Кухаревич. Both Kukharevych and Kuharevich are equally acceptable English translations afaik.

Tymon and Yates cost a fortune, and Key may end up the same. Lowe's wages are expensive. We spent but not on much quality.

If I was Maloney's agent I'd have been putting a tenner on him with all the bookies. Easy publicity.

New name is very concerning : 38% win rate or is this an opportunity ?

Sod anyone's fantasy team, he's in his 10th season at a top half PL side and still going strong. Don't get that for ~£30m net transfer profit very often these days.

Constantly hiring and firing/losing people at upper levels is part of the problem. No one has any time to settle and do the work and show whether they're "up to it" or not.

Statistically Patino's playing better than he was last season. Yates is, too. Shows how poor our recruitment was. Bring in relegated players and play like we should be relegated.

I think everyone was hoping after they went down to 10 that we'd put a couple of goals past them early on and Key could come off on the hour for Sam Parker, save his legs while he's still building back from injury, and give the young lad some experience against the worst team in the division mid-injury and manager crisis.

In the end we couldn't afford to think to Tuesday let alone longer term and needed Key to play the 90.

The Jerry Yates situation now Duff has left & the Swans uninspiring targets
at 13:06 9 Dec 2023

Yates scored half his non-penalty goals last season playing out wide in a short October purple patch. 14 goals for a relegated side sounds good on the surface but when you look in more detail you wonder what we were thinking spending that much money on him. It's not enough goals if all he's supposed to contribute is goals. He's Cullen with better PR (and worse link play).

Neither he nor Latibeaudiere should ever be accused of always being in the right place. Both extremely poor positionally against wide threats.

Had a reputation for bombing forward down the left at Stoke, a ball-carrier who couldn't be trusted to defend. Obviously been instructed to play very differently for us. One of many who look for Grimes before looking forward.

Please let Patino play 90 minutes

He was starting regularly before the suspension so he wasn't exactly dropped for "one mistake".

I imagine Duff sees his lack of athleticism and "confidence" in our own half leading to a few cheap giveaways/at least one goal and has lost confidence in starting him. Especially after the red card (that shouldn't have been).

Arsenal fans think a lot of him but I wonder how much chance he actually has there when the speed and amount of running will be so much higher. Even when he was starting for us Duff didn't give him 90 minutes.

Swans gear up for Leeds United & Kristian Fletcher will return to DC Utd
at 13:31 29 Nov 2023

Duff missed the goals yesterday. Showed up for the second half (due to first team training) and left 10 minutes before the end. Hopefully someone sent him the highlights.

He doesn't seem to have much interest in blooding the youngsters. The ones that get on the bench catch splinters and we've signed a 34 year old on a temp contract rather than provide some priceless learning opportunities to Congreve, Smith, Wilson etc. Or put them in the shop window for January loans.
