There was a point in the game where the commentator said the ref is having a word with Kelly. I think it was the other way round

I hate it when players shield the ball out they do it for goal kicks from the edge of the box it should be a free for all and boot him as much as you want

I think that a shoulder charge is allowed under the laws, but it must be shoulder to shoulder and not use excessive force.

So it’s up to the ref to decide what’s excessive then.

It looked like they'd brought in some Ospreys players the way they were tackling and going to ground, I know its a contact sport but both arms around a player is still a foul, and Sam's tackle was a good strong block getting the ball. Not every tackle is a foul and not every foul is a yellow card, that was neither. The one where Mcfadz was wrestled to the floor in the box wasn't given as the ball wasn't in play from the corner, but still worthy of WWE slamdown. I hope we never get Woolmer in any more of our games, Cooper was right to call him cheat.

Swansea were the best at shithousery

Fantastic word shithousery! I for one will donate £10 everytime we can get Robins to use the word after a game to Eakin on the radio towards the season ticket fund next season. Maximum £30 ( I’m not minted) anyone willing to join me and raise a smile at the same time as a few quid for fellow fans?
Maybe someone could start a thread or get the ball rolling ? If he knew how many were willing to join in it would give him an incentive.

I think you should sneak another peek at McCallum’s tackle. It was one a lumberjack would have been proud of.

That commentator was a complete tosser and an embarrassment for Sky - one sided and bias - wanted Clive in the Radio but we are so behind with our satellite signal that seems to come from China it was impossible to handle

It takes three or four minutes and at the end of the half they add in two minutes VAR is another time thief

Balls within playing reach if you lie on top of it as well.

Many times it’s a long way away and then just step across and keep blocking the attacker off and then if the attacker tries harder to get the ball they fall over.

It will be so sad if they don’t go up. They have a lot of players who think they are premier league players but have found their level Solanke is a prime example

Only just watched last night's quest , 5mins of highlights of Swansea v Bristol and the screaming and dividing over by the Swansea players in just that 5 mins was laughable.

Agreed. Lot to like about Swansea but their antics cause me to lose an awful lot of respect for them.

If the ref could award a penalty it would stop this kind of bollocks.

I am sure we had a game at HR where Oggy got done for taking too many steps might have been against Forest?
