    Finding it finding it increasingly hard to keep the glass half full rather than half empty. Afraid I can't see anything other than a defeat.

    If Swansea play to their potential and we play like we did against a derby then this will be the thrashing that we’ve avoided so far during our bad run. But they have been fitful and surely Derby was rock bottom for us?  3-0 Swansea. 
  • Can't see anything other than a heavy defeat in this one. Need the Takeover to happen some new bodies through the door and some key players back form injury otherwise can't see where the next point is coming from

    Adding insult to our lengthy injury list to see it is the same ref as the home match, after which Bowyer ended up with a three match ban.

    Think we'll seriously lose this one and concerned that Bowyer could seriously lose his rag if any key decisions go against us.

    We do better with him in the stands.

    1-1 Taylor

    Think we should do our best to keep possession and be patient, make them do the running. 

    The high press game is hard graft and incurs injuries as we have seen! Might be best to try slow the game down and if a counter presents, go for it.

    Bowyer needs to stick Naby up front. I know he isn't a striker and if we had a viable striker option he should never play there, but we need to be direct given our lack of creative options and you never know if he can make a nuisance of himself. I think you never know is the best option we can take tonight.

    Assumed we would get tonked until I read two Swansea forums. Remarkable levels of pessimism and frustration from them.

    We no doubt have the ability to turn their season around and set them off on a jolly good run of form...  Happy 2020!

    0-3 to the Haddocks. The Nabster with a triple. Left, right and head.

    Looking at results from other bottom half sides, our injury-ravaged side has done phenomenally well not to be beaten by several goals this season, everyone else has, and some multiple times. 

    However, fear morale and further injuries after Derby game is going to give us our first heavy defeat.

    I fear another loss or, at best, a draw.  Hard to see anything else really unless Bow tries to play very defensive and hit them on the break with pace (Oh...).  Have put my money on 1-2.  Never bet against us...!

    Outcome will depend on how long it takes to get Pogba's paperwork done.

    Do you mean he plays up front with his back to goal and when he received the ball he does a reverse Cruyff turn and then imagines he passing back to Phillips ?

    after the takeover there will be a lot of careers on the line, players that is .. I expect them to be giving it a right good go tonight, whoever is selected/fit enough to stagger onto the pitch

    Hopefully presented by Scott Minto who I'm sure will be beaming about the takeover.

    Not sure I totally agree with this, but Bows needs to temporarily abandon his football principles of playing through midfield, because we don't have one.

    Route one for next couple of games please. Stick Aneke on with no responsibility to press, just to rough them up.

    Alas they were one of the best defences I've seen at the Valley this year.

    I see him pretty much every week as he lives near me.

    He loves Charlton and often mentions us on sky.
