    At the risk of prolonging the debate, this is the same Getsworse story x4 isn't it hb1?

    As Gino converses with the media on fewer occasions than Zaha is vertical,we don't know and aren't likely to unless we bug his office at Colney.

    For the sake of continuity I hope Walt stays but Gino hasn't failed us yet. If that puts us at risk of more snide comments from Merson,Murphy and the rest of the boys in the band, then so be it!

    Sahorn stated that he never had seen a "report" stating Gino was disappointed with Mazzarri and asked me to post the links, which what I have done. Whether they are true, made up or otherwise is for the reader to make their own mind up over.

    Thanks for those HB1, they all (except Star) quote the Express story.

    If Ranieri replaces Mazzari, the Leicester links and rivalry will resurface, we could even be top of the bill on MOTD with big ears analysis of player comparisons, style of play, how are we doing vs Leicester's title season etc etc.

    Watford would certainly be higher profile and not just the footnote status we currently hold - that is for the first 10 games until the novelty wears off :)

    Everton and Man U won't be as limp as Stoke were when they've play Swansea..

    If we survive I'll be surprised - I've put big money on Hull to catch us up - I've literally put the house one it, my wife isn't convinced but the forum swung me.

    Looking like Palace will beat Liverpool and reach probable safety today.

    Good win for Palace that, Burnley drop into 16th.

    Look a different team since Big Sam came in. Well done to them. Looking forward to another trip there next season.

    FFing hate Palace and that gum chewing fat canut

    Results gone for the bottom teams this week

    Strange with our amazingly hard run in we don't feature in the relegation odds on Bet365. If Swansea were to win at Old Trafford we really would be back in it .

    True although clear penalty on Cortina at 1-0 or possibly 1-1.

    Very difficult to like BFS,although that doesn't seem to stop 98% of the media.

    The long goodbye for Sunderland..

    If Swansea lose away to Utd tomorrow they will be 4 point behind Hull with 3 games to play.

    Think Swansea could be down too. Shame as I like them.

    If Swansea lose tomorrow I am calling it that we are mathematically safe.
     
  22. wfc4ever

    wfc4ever Administrator Staff Member

    I thunk even HB1 would accept that!

    And Hull's next game is Sunderland so that will be 3 points meaning Swansea basically have to win all their games..

    Hull deserve to stay up, absolute heroics in the last couple of weeks

    It would be very good for us if Swansea lost, but just imagine what the table would look like if they actually won!!

    We'd just be 6 points clear of relegation and I think a lot of fans would get the jitters then.

    United have found it hard to win games at Old Trafford this season, drawing plenty against the likes of Bournemouth, Hull, West Ham, West Brom and Stoke. Even Burnley got a point there! So it's not inconceivable that Swansea could get something.

    No Ibrahimovic, Fellani, Pogba, Mata,Valencia, Smalling plus a host of other defenders for United.

    I think there could be a surprise result in this, seeing as Swansea know they have to win it.

    If we beat Liverpool on Monday it would help even more.

    Man Utd are desperate to win as well. A team needing to win doesn't make it anymore likely unless the other team is on the beach which Man Utd won't be. Home win.

    Burnley cruising .... what a time and place to get your first away win of the season!

    We do have a lot of bedwetters who don't seem to possess even the most basic level of knowledge about football in our fanbase so you could be right.
     
  29. Godfather

    Realistically Swans would do very well to pick up 8 points from their last four games, I can't see it myself ... However if they can manage that then Palace look just as vulnerable as Hull and their game at Selhurst could be massive.

    Sickening dive from Rashford.
     
  31. UEA_Hornet

    Good dive by Rashford to con the referee into giving Man Utd a penalty in first half injury time. Swansea 1-0 down.
     
  32. GoingDown

    GoingDown "The Stability"

    Not according to the commentators. 'great forward play' and 'Fabianski at fault for allowing Rashford the opportunity to dive'.

    Did I mention I hate the majority of the England team and their players?
     
  33. wfc4ever

    wfc4ever Administrator Staff Member

    Thought only the foreigners dive! ;)

    Sort of bad luck that happens when your playing at OT as a team near the bottom.

    When Orwell wrote 1984 he thought future dictatorships would subjugate us by claiming that 2 + 2 = 5.

    He was wrong - it would in fact manifest as being told Rashford had the right to go down.

    What an amazing coincidence.

    After a lot of thought I had come to the very same conclusion. :]]
