Binks was decent. We missed Bidwell. JDS, Allen and Godden get a 0/10 while Sheaf gets maybe a 3/10. Played a poor pass to Allen for their first goal which was totally avoidable. Then fouls their man to give a free kick in a bad place for their second goal. Also took many poor corners although they were slightly better than Eccles. I think we looked better without Sheaf the last few games,

Neither - it went to the side of the wall and it was his side so he has to save it. Poor goalkeeping really.

He couldn't see it. Was poor set up in defence. You don’t leave a big gap to the corner of the goal. Hit the target good chance of scoring.

Shouldn't be easy for the ref. They were doing it all night and he missed all of them.

Up to 12th but would have been 8th with the win.

49% possession but 21 shots. We deserved to win.

Now 5 points off 6th. Still can't see us not making the playoffs at least

Every chance but would like to see us strengthen our second string

Sheaf is good but makes some horrific decisions and gets so many basics wrong.

Feels like a loss but we cant dwell too much. Good performances and really unlucky to not get the 3 pts. Rest up, few changes coming to start against Boro and we go again.

soft free kick to give away, and Collins left the gap to put it there and stood behind the wall, that’s poor all round

Soft? It wasn't a free kick. Yet another dive by a Swansea player

It's nights like tonight that shows we need to wise up and shithouse more. Need to be waiting as much time as possible and winding up other team to frustrate. No allow them to carry on playing their game

It was as much a freekick as Goddens was a penalty against Fulham.

It's what they needed. Now that confidence is high, they needed a character building game. Imagine all the jizz that would have been flowing if we'd won and been in the playoffs. It's a good result all round.

Feel like we're still a few players away, I'd like a more versatile lb, da silva is OK Birdwell is better but we can do better than both, I would like to replace allen with someone with more umph about them.

Sheaf just dangled a leg, made it easy for him, that’s about as soft as it gets

I never criticise the manager but he got it totally wrong tonight his team to start was never right and keeping the defence the same at the end ridiculous in fairness we don’t know the injury situation but keeping Disilva on and not bring on Bidwell God knows Swansea exploited Desilvas lack of height all match. Two points absolutely gifted away. Shocking

I think he’ll know in his heart of hearts. But win some lose some I guess

Desperately lacking at CM really. And cover for the front three.

That defensive line for that last free kick goal was pathetic from us…..ruined an otherwise good performance.
Some great positives and that’s 6 unbeaten now. We look good and improving !

The player was already on his way down before then. Have seen the replays.

Thought Thomas was excellent but made a poor header downwards and in field - just clear it. Sheaf was excellent but was partly at fault for first goal when he could have cleared and then needless freekick conceded.

This is bullshit. The game plan was very good, Walsh goal was a freak other than that we dominated the first half, get in comfortable, bring on the subs, tempo changes and take the lead, when it’s kitchen sink time things happen, overall game plan was bang on.

Yea but you don't drop sheaf so it's the allen replacement.

Top 3 I'm still not sure who or where we need someone

Not sure about the squad depth, maybe in some areas. But the team without certain names looks way less effective
