Ditto. And also expect Lawrenson to have you relegated by Christmas.


As always, Mr Thatched Cottage haircut can oxf*rd off!

:lol:

The ONLY games he will predict that you will get points from are home games against the other promoted teams, and, if an "established" team is below you in the league, he might throw you a draw - if you're lucky!

The Prisoner As I have posted elsewhere it is a big LOL to people who thought we deserved to win that game. The right side went up, and good luck to Swansea.

I am concerned though that they will get found out in the prem. They were gifted three goals by us in an otherwise even-ish first half, and then woefully failed to contain us after the break when we actually woke up. Their best bet in that league is to mix it up a little to survive, and I worry that anyone half decent will take them apart. Just my opinion, not being bitter ( :lol: ) and I hope they finish above Wolves!


The fear is that we aren't good enough to compete at playing the way Arsenal do and that the likes of Stoke will hit us via the 'they don't like it up 'em' angle. We'll need a few more old skool British players if we're going to mix it up - agree that this needs to be done though. Of the handful of games I've seen since Martinez took over, it's something that has been lacking when we've been chasing the game.

First 5-10 games are critical much as they were for you, a few early games at home verses the 'weaker' teams would be ideal. If you hadn't come back against 'Boro then the season could've been very different.

Looks like we've found a chest of gold coins in the sea with this GBP3.5m bid for Graham. Defo need a DCM - now Hughes has gone then maybe Sidders will be available :wink:

We've a number of players out of contract and need Doris De Vries to re-sign.


Get Graham in and you'll be taking a massive step in the right direction. Let's face it....you're going to concede a fair few (everyone does outside the top 7-8 in the prem) so your only hope is to score loads. What about Bothroyd on a free as well :D

I still think that the weakest link in Swansea's team is the goalkeeper. You could do worse than get the big Yank in.

And Marcus sounds a better name for a Premiership footballer than Doris!

SouthDownsRoyal your tongue must ache after all that bum licking :roll:


SouthDownsRoyal Very lucky to win, swansea showed very little and Reading's defence messed up. Fans were pretty poor even we outsung and made more noise.

see you for the 2012-13 season in championship


Bitter, much? :lol:


Nope, just a fact m8, if you had watched the match you'd understand and agree
