Basically their 2nd side but passed the ball around on the ground and seemed well drilled. Not much hoof ball and gave an air of confidence.
In contrast :facepalm:

Let's be brutally honest here, if we were playing at Stevenage yesterday we would have lost.
Many of our fans would have gladly thrown a cup game in Swansea’s position. Hate to say it but credit to them for going for a win. I have grown to hate cup week. Seeing us go out so tamely year after year then seeing other clubs busting a gut to get through.
Stevenage played some good stuff, they weren't looking to knock long balls and hope for the second ball. We are miles behind.Quote:

Yeah it wasn't as if they faced wave after wave of attacks.Quote:
