Despite their off-field issues / threadbare squad, they played well against Norwich last night with James being a stand-out performer.
The game was very entertaining from a neutral's point of view.
Pity they had to lose to a wonder strike by Buendia.
Yes, great shame :hehe: :hehe:Quote:

Routledge & Dyer put in good shifts despite apparently wanting moves away back in January.
I wonder how many of their best players will be sold in the summer? I can imagine some of their former PL players still being on top wages. Their crowds will go down next season, that's a certainty. Income will drop further. They'll be fine if they keep their main assets.Quote:

Great speed and composure.
Isn’t the trust about to try and take the yanks to court? The yanks have 27 hedge funders waiting for a return on their investment, about 60 million down still so everything and anything will be sold this summer.Quote:

Correct. Ballot this month. I can wait to see Jenkins, Dineen and co in courtQuote:

What they've done is far, far worse than anything Scam and the eYeS cRéMe crew did
I thought it was boring as feck. Tippy tappy football at its worst with no cutting edge.
There’s a few of their players I’d have here with dan James at the top of the list

I suppose hoofball and immediate turnover and extremely low possession stats are less boring.
What is better and more entertaining is scoring more goals than the opposition and winning games.Quote:

So yeah if thats your definition of our style then yes.
Our side last year smashes them with probaby 30% possession.
Worrying times for Swansea with Trevor birch called in looking at his record? What would be a positive outcome from the trust winning in court Wayne? If that’s possible? How. Could the trust regain control? Is that it? Sounds messy......Quote:

A few of them really have soft spots for us, particularly the one from pencoed.......:wave:Quote:

Prefer to show them some respect. Life's too short.Quote:

It's a very affectionate description. Swansea or the Jacks but not that.Quote:

My apologies ... it'll be the 'Jacks' from now on, although why isn't that 'affectionate'?Quote:
