Originally posted by palace99 The new manager bounce football myth isn't doing Swansea any harm. 3 wins out of 4 with a manager who has no premier league experience. Undoubtedly we've got worse under BFS but hopefully now the corner has been turned and we can move in the right direction. The club has backed him massively now he needs to do his bit. Incidentally whilst it helps to keep clean sheets you don't necessarily need one to win a game - Swansea's 3-2 win at Liverpool for example. Never heard of "In bad times, things need to get worse before they get better" Yannick Bolasie - Glenn Murray - Wilfried Zaha Most exciting attacking trio at Selhurst Park in years.

Parish and Co have backed Pardew and Big Sam with big money. Fans can't criticise them for that. Yes, we've probably paid more than we should but that's what happens when times are desperate. The bench is going to be strong. Lots of options. Some handy players won't even make the bench!! I'm assuming Financial Fair Play isn't much of a concern to Parish. Not just thinking of the fees we've paid...the wage bill must be huge!!! Add Pardew's pay-off and Sam's salary to that!!! But I'm sure Parish has the purse strings under control. Jan 31st should be the day the tide turned!!

Yes but if you keep a clean sheet you will at least draw, maybe win. But if you concede 2 goals the chances of winning are pretty low. Blog: Andy Johnson's Magic Hat [Link] Twitter: [Tweet Link]

There's a few occasions when we would look not to drop points rather than gain but there's no way this group of players should be set up not to win at home, certainly not against teams outside the top 6.

SP is brilliant ... put his hand in the Eagles pocket and came out with a handsome wad for big Sam to get in some new faces to liven up the team. Now lets kick on and get up that table. Record crowd 51,482 - The Whitehorse was rocking - Second Div Champs 1978 - 79 ... 'wot a night !

Originally posted by rikz I don't care how many games we won in 2016 or what state pardew left the club in, there can be no more excuses now. Allardyce has been heavily backed by parish in this window, all positions that we was crying to strengthen have been, we can put out a first 11 worth something like 120 million. It's now upto the players to turn up and allardyce to make sure of it. I know there's 19 other teams that would have something to say but surley this would be the strongest squad to get relegated from the prem, definitely up there with West ham. Was a good win tonight and definitely a 6 pointer on Sat, I've always thought we would just scrape it this season but hopefully now it's not as tight as it could have been. Good post. Yes time to drop the Pardew rants. Sam has got this team to a new and different level. No more blaming Pardew after today. [Link]
