    Never said anything of the sort and you know it. Slade's tactics are clearly not helping. To suggest otherwise is ridiculous. Slade came in with us already in a relegation dogfight. TM and MV's failure to build a decent squad has been a big part of our downfall.

    Yes. You have to ask yourself, how on earth did Swansea U23's beat Liverpool in a Premier League game and what the hell happened to Swansea's first team today?

    Yes, that's true. If only they let you take radios into the ground that would change everything. Then I could listen while I watch the game. Alas, not to be.

    Yes of course. Logically that's exactly how it works. Obviously. Doh! Thing is, Mowbray left us in this terrible position. Now Slade has come in and is trying to fire fight. We were already looking like we might be doomed before Slade got here. Clearly Mowbray fooked up big style and now we...

    SLADE OUT!!

    Beavon had a hamstring injury though, so Slade's hand was forced.

    One bit of light relief today. As it was so cold I put a pair of thermal leggings on underneath my jeans. Had a brand new pair, never worn before. Just before kick off I needed a pee so went down to the mall toilets. Got in front of the urinal, undid my flies and started rooting around for...

    Especially Lameiras. I could see the Jones move as the much needed pace might have put Fleetwood on the back foot. That would be the thinking anyway. This though was NOT a game for Lameiras (not that many are). I thought Stevenson did okay first half and even made some really good tackles and...

    I want it too. That's as a Coventry kid born and bred. Would be great for the city. I am not at all interested in Wasps.

    Look at the squad. Look what Mowbray left us with. Plain as the nose on your face. We have been shocking up front and that has been down to Mowbray's and Venus's awful summer recruitment. Slade came in and we immediately got an improvement in Beavon. Mowbray wanted a big centre half and...

    I would mark Burge a mark lower. There was one corner where he came and their man got in front of him. His positioning was completely wrong. Luckily we got away with it. Willis is NOT a wing back, or for that matter, a fullback. He is almost totally useless coming forwards with the ball when we...

    If Beavon is injured and Tudgay is injured, what the hell is the team going to be on Tuesday? Please don't tell me Rose and Jones up front. :( What's the likely 11? RCC DKE Willis Turnbull Haynes (unless we risk Stokes again) Reid Rose Stevenson Reilly Jones Thomas ?

    Mowbray is very much to blame for where we find ourselves. You keep up the delusion though if it makes you feel better

    7 points away from safety and bottom

    Yep. A couple of players is like patching over a leaky boat when we clearly need a new boat.

    Serious question.....?

    Thing is, I bet if you look back there will be plenty of games that have finished 2-1 and we have been 2-0 up and conceded a late goal. If we had some firepower these late goals probably wouldn't matter.

    7 points away from safety and bottom

    I like be very happy with that, cos at the moment it looks like it will be happening with about 10 games to go!

    Slade eager to bolster attacking options

    I don't know. Pele and Duncan Ferguson side by side and we could be in with a shout.

    3 wins on the spin! Don't! You are cracking me up. I want to be sad and wallow in my self pity, but you keep coming out with these corkers!! :)

    Remember when people said there are 4 teams worse than us? Well they were wrong.

    Same day John Lennon died. 1980 actually. Euphoric and saddened at the same time.
