Slightly worrying that we could lose 3-2 and have no real complaints.

Oh well, worth it just to hear the bitterness in Horne's voice :lol:

Hunt currently has the best record in the premier league for minutes per goal scored (minimum 2 goals needed to qualify)


where are gunter and harte? two of them not even on the bench - injured? sick?

Well - Shorey's a natural replacement for Harty.

Don't know about Gunter though.

Harte is playing for Carlisle in a testimonial tomorrow. Gunter was dropped last week. Not on the bench? Meh.

Swandsea reminds me of Rodgers' spell with ourselves.

The stats that Horne seems so to love so much show 58-42 ins the Swans favour. Not quite the domination he was implying.

Still, this is only a job hlaf done so far. Cmon boys!

muddyfeet Why are we giving them So much space?!

Because if we press them, we risk being tired and unable to do anything. If we stand off a bit more and wait for Swansea to give it away or the chance to make an interception, then we will have the energy to counter attack. McDermott has used this strategy before and it has generally served us well.


It works well against some teams but not Swansea IMO

So, erm...
