Swansea City v Preston North End : Matchday Thread AFTERMATH 10:19 - Apr 4 with 18990 viewsNotLoyal

It’s another side with a new manager after another new manager embarrassed Steve Cooper who used to be a new manager before he became a slightly older one. That pathetic, gutless, outrageously poor and ridiculous performance by the swans in Birmingham has better not repeat itself or I for one will be very angry and objectionable ( again )

LIVE ON SWANS TV

Swansea City need a win not only boost their confidence as they stutter over the play off line in what has been a torrid and unprofessional time for Steve Cooper and his swans team.



Here’s Peter, he used to work in a bank before he became a referee, he wasn’t a bank teller he was actually a cash point. Being the first human cash point meant a lot to Peter, so much so he Often visits them today to chat, reminisce and gently gaze in to each other’s eyes if he finds one he especially likes. He is a ably assisted by James Mainwaring from Dads Army.

Scott Sinclair
Scott Sinclair joined the Jacks in the summer of 2010 and was an integral part of the that took them to the Premier League for the very first time the following summer, scoring a hat-trick at Wembley as the Swans defeated Reading 4-2 to earn a place at the top table of English football. He spent two years at the Liberty Stadium, before joined Manchester City, scoring 36 goals in 92 appearances — having made his home debut in a game against the Lilywhites, of all people.

Looking to the Bank Holiday clash with Steve Cooper’s side it could be Scott’s first appearance at the ground, since leaving for the Etihad: “I have great memories of my time there,” he recalled. “I was reflecting the other day that it was ten years since the Play-Off Final. “It is a great club, but we will be going there to try and get the three points and hopefully we can come away with the win. “There are a couple of people still there from my time at the club. The squad has changed a lot since I was there, but there are still a couple of old faces and it will be nice to see them.

Swansea City record v PNE

So we have the change of formation, we have the rotation, we have the players starting that people have been calling for.

Everyone happy with how it’s going out of interest?

Yes but some refs may have given red, last man on the edge of the area. It was a poor challenge.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

Lucky to be level at the break for me & with Bournemouth, Barnsley & Reading all winning 7th/8th spot is looking on.

Either a rocket at HT - can’t see Cooper getting the hair dryer out - so how long before Dhanda & Oli Cooper get a go!

Barring a very brief spell at the beginning of the half that was poor (again). My favourite bit was when the SwansTV feed went black for a couple of minutes, to be honest.

Probably a good thing. I want Bournemouth out of the play-offs.

Reading don’t really concern me anywhere near as much.

You could be right Doc but ideally the 6 spots would be a formality now. Another team who could pip us is not ideal.

Is the right answer.

We look like a team that has had about 2.5m spent on it in the last 2 years. Can’t wait for the meltdowns next year when Ayew and the other big earners need to be shipped out.

Carnage on the horizon on here, mark my words.

Not a lack of talent, they passed it just fine earlier in the season. I think because Coopr kept doing the same thing time after time when it wasn't working and it drained their confidence. They're scared to try, even a simple forward pass is hard work.

It doesn't help when they're going through the back of you and the ref does very little.

Whittaker looks OK but he shouldn't be gutting pulled wide, he should be in the middle, poaching. Lowe still looks lost though, he shouldn't be on the pitch, he desperately needs a break because his head isn't in it.

It's poor generally but they need a chance to get used to this new formation. Cooper should have done this weeks back.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

I would drop Ayew and Lowe and put 2 kids in. They have been worse than useless for months. Strolling around, dont challenge, not interested.
