Whitey Grandad

We underachieved with Puel.

Indeed. It will have been an escape, but not that great.

I was probably bored to sleep after ten minutes.

Isn’t that just observer bias?

I wasn’t at the game, was just making a point. Whether it suits one team more than the other cannot be taken into consideration, of course.

Unfair? It was the same for both teams and if we had scored in that time would you have felt the same way? Just saying...

Ne meither.

Indeed. The line up beforehand with the phony handshakes is more than enough. What was wrong with both teams running out onto the pitch kicking footballs in front of them?

I think we should give them one. In the true sense of the word.

I came back on the train sitting opposite a young lad who was given Shane Long’s shirt at the end of Tuesday’s game. It is absolutely tiny, a ‘medium’.

That was a great day. The equaliser that we scored for them after the stopage was planned and agreed between the teams, allegedly. Back off the pitch we knew that we were safe with a draw and the first chance we get Monkou (?) plants a great heady right inside the foot of our post. Cue all the players and officials belting for the tunnel and another picth invasion.

What, 1-0 ?

Every point was a good point.

I must have missed that even though I was at all the home games. Which game were you thinking of?

Ridiculous logic.

Let's not forget that whatever the result for every goal we score Swansea would have to score another.

You forgot to mention his song. An important part of these celebrations.

And many of the Stoke players will be looking for new job offers after Sunday.

Which one?

Serves them right for fixing the fixtures.

Well somebody’s got to go down and somebody’s got to go up so someone will be laid off somewhere and others taken on somewhere else. That’s a consequence of relegation and promotion.

Lose their jobs? It was the hotel that cancelled our visit, not us.

Yep. Alan Ball was in charge of them at the time, May 1996 https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-soccer-england-mci-liv-matches/five-memorable-man-city-vs-liverpool-matches-idUKKBN16O1FL

You can try this but I think you need to sign up with them first at no cost: http://www.skysports.com/football/swansea-vs-soton/373404

Was that with a Micky Evans brace?
