Should be a competitive game with that extra little edge to it, gonna be one that their manager would love to win, but I'm going for a Swans 2-1 win.

Here is Monk's ball:

The joint-second dirtiest side in the Championship. 13,9 fouls per game.

1/3 of their goals is scored from set-pieces.

The worst Championship side for possession. 42,5 %.

The worst Championship side for passing accuracy. 61,3 %.

Second-worst for short passes per game.

Monk is the only manager in the Championship who has played all games with one formation, and that's 4-4-2. Keep it simple stupid.

My god, how I miss Monk and our Swanselona style under him.

It is scandalous that he took us to our highest prem position. He is as bad a manager as Bob a job. Thank heavens Tosh took us to 6th in the old first division . A far superior achievement.
And far superior football.

Monk is the only Swansea City manager in the Premier League era who had two top strikers available, Bony and Gomis. Not to forget Fabianski and Gylfi. Definitely the best squad we've had in the Premier League was that one in 2014/15.

But he took us to that position with Laudrups team, then he dismantled it and here we are playing him in the Championship.

Good to see Fer & James are in the lineup .

PS but just had a little bit of inside info and it looks pretty certain they're leaving.

If that's true then it's just the beginning. Rodon, Celina, Roberts, McBurnie...will all be sold in the summer transfer window. Naughton, Routs, Dyer, Narsingh, Bony, Montero, Olsson, Carroll, Hoorn will be gone. Nordfeldt will send a transfer request to the board. And Potter?

League One, here we come.

Yay!! Dan James for 1-0. That'll put a million on his valuation and in the cnuts back pockets. :( It's really hard. I'm so enthusiastic about our Swans but it's becoming more diluted by the day because of the effect these shysters are having on the club. I mean, I don't know what to hope for any more. Is there any point in getting upbeat about progress given what we all suspect about the Wanks' motives? They're slowly killing us. And they are doing a good job of killing me in the process. Equaliser for Brum as I write.

Anyway, enough is ENOUGH!! I intend to demand a meeting with those who are running the Trust (and making a pig's guts of the job) and ask them face to face, and on the record, about what their intentions are vis a vis challenging the mechanics of the takeover and the subsequent handling of the club. If anyone cares to support me in this please send me a PM. I will keep a record of every email, letter, phone call and meeting, so that they will be left in no doubt that there will be VERY public scrutiny of their responses. If they fail to respond then that too will tell its own tale.
