Swansea City

UGLY but a draw none-the-less.

 

We are in the 6th round draw and find out who we could/will play next round, tomorrow night.

 

Theeeeere's Wolfie...

 

Well, well, well, I'm glad that's over and I didn't awake at 4:45 a.m. to watch it (my respect to all other westcoasters that caught it live.) FFC played rather woeful football (can't even count the number of direct giveaways), yet it was an away draw (with some luck).

All panning aside, the draw was a great result all things considered and Swansea aren't going to win the replay.

Also, I'm not quite sure what Gera brings to the table anymore (and I was hoping this would be his "breakout" match), yet, he was by no means alone in his ineffectiveness. I now think I know why he was obtained on a free after WBA were promoted...

 

I am very happy with the tie considering the near misses and post shots from the Swans. With all the games stacking up, the squad just needs to keep fit.

Very happy with the team coming around the turn!

 

They put the replay on Tuesday, two days after the West Brom match? They couldn't have put it on Wednesday at least?

 

We host ManU in the quarters if we win the replay. We're going to be seeing a lot of them in the near future unfortunately.

 

Chelsea is at home vs Juventus.

Chelsea and Fulham at home on the same day. A big no-no.

 

Mike, why is that such a "no-no?" I realize the close proximity, but they don't share common fans do they?

 

Yeah, I'd imagine that if the Cubs and White Sox were a few blocks down the street from one another, things like traffic, parking and drunk Cubs fans would lead to the biggest nightmare ever.

 

I'm a little upset that FSC won't offer coverage. They are going to broadcast a 5th round replay on Wednesday, can't remember which one though. Instead, FSC is showing a replay of the Australian A League Prelim. Final on Tuesday. Boooo!

Setanta have Champions League, so that is out of the question. Looks like I'll have to listen to GJ at work.
