John Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Our next game and sadly I anticipate our next defeat will be at Swansea on Saturday 19th March at 17.30. This has been described as a "must, must win" game for Swansea who have double the points that we do with one to spare. They are 8 points clear of the relegation zone and a win against us would take them to 36 points with another 7 games to go after that so it would be as difficult to see them going down from that position. I guess this is considered a "must, must win" game for them because they see it as the easiest game they have left which no doubt is the case for every other club we will face in our remaining games. How I would like us to burst their bubble! We have lost our last four games against Swansea and last beat them away from home in 1971 when we were both in the old Division 3. We have gone six away games against them without a win. We have not won away since the first day of this awful season. Everything points to them getting a comfortable win. Can anyone see them not winning by a minimum of two goals on Saturday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One For The Road Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I think we can restrict them to 2-0 or even maybe 2-1. Even this bag of **** of a team manage a goal occasionally and Swansea aren't exactly tearing it up atm. No chance of a point tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I think you can absolutely guarantee that we won't score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieZ Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I think we can get a point from this one...but I'll still probably trade for Sigurðsson in fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jem Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Lifelong Villian living down here in Swansea,can tell you that the Swans are not taking Saturday's game lightly,they know that one more win will probably see them safe for another season and are approaching the game accordingly. In Siggerson they probably have the best support striker in the PL at the moment and if he's not carefully watched he can easily get a couple of goals himself he's in that kind of form,Andre Ayew will not play as he is injured,other that that they have a fully fit squad,which now includes the lightening quick winger Mo Barrow who scored his first PL goal last Saturday. All in all a tough game lets hope we can put up a good performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srsmithusa Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Front line of Gil, Ayew, Green ? play for a Quick counter. No point in playing Gestede if we're going to hit fewer than 20 crosses. and no point playing Gabby under any circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Struggling side desperate for a win. Who are you gonna call? Aston Villa. 3-0 Swans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Thomas Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 (edited) We'll probably go and win but it won't matter, too little too late. Edit. Would like to see a few more of the U21s who beat Arsenal U21s given a chance, even as subs..... Edited March 18, 2016 by Gary Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilS Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Swansea will be safe for another season come Saturday evening. I cannot see our lot managing to upset Swansea and keep them in the mix. 2-0 to Swansea, with our ever obliging defence gifting them at least one of the goals.
