Not seen that. I'm glad people are getting ahead of themselves.

We have learnt from that.

Be outrage on here if we drop 2 points at home to a shite team like Swansea.

The best player they've ever had is now our captain!

No opposition team is going to be able to use the general mood of a message board, but they can use leaked team information.

We stuffed Arsenal 3-2 in 1999, and Swansea ain't Arsenal.

It will be a tough game, just because almost every game in the Championship is. We will have to pick open a packed defence. Could actually be quite a boring game compared with Bristol City which was an excellent Championship game.

We have to find a way of winning, simple as that. Also scoring only one against such a low placed team would be very encouraging to the chasing pack so it also has to be a comfortable win. I'd like at least 2-0 preferably better.

4 at the back - Bidwell over Brau, although the latter to come on at some point, to see if he confirms his promise from Southampton. If the centre backs are still out I'd pack the midfield. Simms over Wright for me as he provides more options, but it's not a dealbreaker.

Hoping for better traffic than Bristol, which was absolute shit to get to.

Exactly. All the hysteria seems to be coming from those somehow outraged that we're not always predicting a 4-0 win before every game .

Nothing wrong with a bit of caution, and that's all it is, and we've all been watching the game long enough to know how this league is far from predictable. If anything, it's those sitting back at games waiting and expecting that are the problem. Hope I'm wrong, but expect it'll be dead in there today for that reason.

..... but the outrage is likely to be from you and others, who who seem to think we just need to turn up and the opposition will roll over for us!

The end result is still the team that's out in front winning again and increasing its goal difference

Confident going into this one.

Not doubt that this will doom the result but I’m thinking 4-1 today for the city

I'm confident. Waiting for the teamsheet though. Haji always starts over Simmo for me, his touch and movement are worlds apart but he does need a goal or three! He has been very unlucky recently so that has to change at some stage.

Anyone concerned about Grimes after he went down and stayed down until treated on Saturday? My heart sank when he looked imobile on the ground. Hope its not going to scupper his chances of playing on Friday

I wasn’t sure if that was a good bit of gameplay , try and take their momentum down a bit

Had a premonition in the shower…4-2 Cov. All previous premonitions have proven to be a load of bollox. Yesterday lunchtime drunk Covkid1968 was predicting 2-0 win apparently but I’ve got no recollection of it. So I’m basically having 2 goes for the price of one.

Same. All dependent on the team sheet today.

Let's see that and then I will predict.

Decent enough side out and I think we will win.
