[Alex Cheeseright]

So fake a head injury and get the ball back. Nothing wrong there
Stupid rule

 

[71Blade]

A drinks break. Its barely 20 degrees ffs

The game is dead.. ref embarrassed himself with the no head injury free kick

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

A drinks break. Its barely 20 degrees ffs

But the precious little things were thirsty....

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Feels like we could easily be winning games but instead we're just going to fuck about for a few weeks

 

[toledo]

This is one ugly game …

 

[Ranmoorblade]

A drinks break. Its barely 20 degrees ffs

It’s 27 degrees in Swansea.

 

[KenT]

It’s 27 degrees in Swansea.

26 to be pedantic

 

[Lawrence]

Feels like we could easily be winning games but instead we're just going to fuck about for a few weeks

Swansea better team a mile, we are running around like headless chickens!

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Lack of movement is frightening. I get that is hot but it's not Guadalajara

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Never known a fussier ref.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Bit earlier, Basically saying the defence is all over the place and in the next breath bigging up Robbo.

 

[JoeG]

this has been a gruelling watch

 

[blade4life10]

Stream?

save your sanity and dont bother its woeful

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

If these players thought Wilder was hindering them, and stifling their amazing talent, now he's gone maybe they could try stringing a few passes together at the very least?

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Considering the last 2 performance's.

Have to say its a good half but an incredibly low bar.

 

[robbiez666]

Bit rubbish but we haven't conceded a goal. Soumare looks good. Will need time to get up to speed fully though.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Highlight of the half, I got up and let rip a huge fart. Woke the dogs up.

 

[YES Blade]

When did Wilder come back?

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Also, we're up to 20th. Woooooo

 

[FriethBlade]

It’s 27 degrees in Swansea.

And extremely humid

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

I think we are not pushing forward how the manager would like because we can't afford to leave this defense exposed.

Soumare, Burrows and Barry looking good.

Seriki, Campbell, peck less so

 

[coolasanidiot]

Not amazing but certainly better. Barry Bindon and Soumare all did OK- that's definitely a positive. If I'm honest very much like last year - and we tended to win 1-0 without dominating.

Add a few to this team and should be OK whilst probably not challenging.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Still running about aimlessly,headless chicken style.

Whats happened to Seriki he dont look the same player.

 

[jt64]

I assume I have missed nothing of value

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

And extremely humid

Yesterday I worked in 28 degree heat, feels like 35, for 10 hours and I'm 61. Players are pussies!!!

 

[shrubbery]

We just look a disorganised mess. The number of misplaced passes, over hit, under hit, holding on to the ball for far too long and losing it. Every ball into our box and the whole defence shit themselves. It’s just a poor watch. Not a shot on target yet ffs.

 

[Lawrence]

Swansea are going down…. With United, That was terrible!, shocking back 4, thank god for Robinson, lucky Swansea are not very good,

 

[Greenwich Blade]

I'm reminded of the United documentary when Bassett says to the players in the dressing room at the final whistle, "You all look like you've been on the piss!"

 

[KMC-1889]

Whats happened to Seriki he dont look the same player.

think he’s been told to keep an eye over his shoulder, which is a shame because he does a much better job of pressing high than Burrows does.

Is it just me or does Hamer look miles off it? Really simple passes just not coming off. Campbell not getting a sniff either, don’t like this idea of him leading the line - not strong enough and not mobile enough.

 

[metalblade]

Better today but we need to get Hamer into the game. Peck daydreaming again. Give it to Barrie who is tormenting their RB. Something in this game if we want it.
