Early days, not even out of October yet :thumbup:


We are almost a quarter of the way through the season. There is enough on show already to know which set of fans is ''more worried'' about this season and that any panicked morons on planetswans prior to the season were just that, panicked morons, yet again.

Stick with me, you won't go far wrong... :thumbup:

75% of season left, far too early to say how either club will end up but I’d rather be in your position to ours at the moment.

The squad is in the best shape its been in since relegation, and arguably at any point in our Championship life. The promotion year still edges it for me but there can certainly be an argument made.

The Rodon sale was a wonder stroke. It has allowed us to bring in much better depth to our squad. As nice as it would have been to think Rodon was ours for the next decade, it wasn't realistic. He was off sooner or later and to get it wrapped up and then go on to improve the squad including a more than able replacement is testament to that decision.

The Gylfi sale, or rather the delay in the sale to squeeze another 5m or so out of Everton hurt us so much more than it would have selling him quickly for 5m less would have. It looks like we learned from that.

Nobody is saying how we will end up, but enough of the season has gone to have a fair idea of what kind of shape each team is in and which set of fans is more worried about the rest of it...

As I said in an earlier post, I'm not the slightest bit worried but as I've said, I'd rather be in your position at the moment(but I'm a single voice and not a set of fans)

Indeed, but looking at the forum it is clear that some fans are indeed concerned about this season not living up to previous expectations.

The post was Swansea fans were worried about the season, and a link to the Swansea site where the Swansea fans were worried about the coming season :thumbup:

Early days we started badly last season, let’s see what happens at Christmas and then again at the end of the season, until then It’s just sooooo boring :thumbup:

I know what it was.

I responded laughing at the fact stating they are drama queens and does not represent the true situation at the club.

You didn't seem to want to accept that was the case. :lol:

Just popping along to bump the this thread, considering we are about to go top of the league.

The difference in quality in football between the two sides is absolutely obscene. I genuinely can’t fathom why you accept it, every manager plays a slightly different brand of hoof ball. Technically I have not seen such a poor side in the league, genuinely. No real shot for Woodman to save. Commentator said you haven’t scored against us since 2013, that’s mad. Not looked close so far today.

Quite shocked in all honesty.

Have to say deservedly so. They were excellent today. Part of the reason why we were shite is the quality of the opposition

Re: Swansea fans very worried about the coming season

Sun Dec 13, 2020 4:22 pm

Thats four points off top then for them.

Yep, nicely poised in 3rd, 1 point off automatics.

Are you confident of staying up this season out of interest? Technically you were the worst side we have played I think.

You were, look at the comments, Swansea fans were worried, less so now but it's very early days, let's see what sort of a squad you have over a full season, on your £9.01 an hour paid greenkeepers pitch :thumbup:

It's a long season, no one is promoted in December, we have plenty of experience of this, you obviously have far less, don't get carried away it's early days :thumbup

Let's see how your cabbage patch Manager plays on your cabbage patch pitch for the rest of the season :thumbup:

Keep up.
