I didn't get to the Carabao final....just saying...it was a pretty nondescript game today, nothing much of note not even after we scored. Still, a very important 3 points and a solid performance against a team of what looked largely like slabbs of meat with hardly any creativity. |  | |  |
Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 17:48 - Apr 5 with 2352 views | swan65split | its noot going to be pretty until we are mathematically safe, results elsewhere so far shows that, take nothing for granted until safe. COYS STID. |  | |  |

With a touch of Martin ball thrown in. Dreadful game but an excellent result. |  | |  |

Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 18:25 - Apr 5 with 2120 views | Cheese_addict | Dreadful game, but all about the 3 points today. Another big game on Wednesday where I think another 3 points may well see us more or less safe. I think! |  | |  |
Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 18:46 - Apr 5 with 2025 views | GVJack | Agree with the majority on here. Poor performance, not good on the eye. As the home team 4pts above our visitors I was expecting us to put them under more pressure and take the game to them but it just didn't happen. That being said, substitutions worked so have to give Sheehan and his team massive Kudos for getting it right on the day and bagging us a very important 3pts. Not the sort of performance that will bring the crowds back in drives... But it will keep us in the championship. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

The way Stearman and Sheehan celebrated the goal with wagging fingers tells me that was another well planned strategy. It nearly worked a few minutes before. |  |

That's the point really, Sheehan has an objective and he looks to be reaching it quite efficiently. We are at the point where the 3 points is all important, he doesn't have the luxury of 20 games, a transfer window with full support and a license to entertain. |  | |  |
Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 20:06 - Apr 5 with 1776 views | HoneyBadger | Cyrus Christie added a bit of interest at the end of the game. I like his swagger and confidence. Never worried enough to break out into a full run. Although this may be because he seems to have the physique and fitness of someone more typically leaving the Smiths arms at 14:30 than a player in the dressing room. |  | |  |
Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 20:16 - Apr 5 with 1719 views | builthjack | Derby were the worst footballing side that I have seen for 3 or 4 years. Hoofball all game. Long throws their biggest weapon. They dived to the ground when a Swans player tackled or touched them. Just a bunch of 6 foot thugs. Bully boy tactics. We were poor, but at least we tried to play football. Football won in the end. |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

They were certainly on par with Luton this year |  | |  |

That was far more like Steve Cooper football. Two dire teams with no attacking intent cancelling each other out. Just like the Cooper seasons though, we managed to find a way to win. Three points were all that mattered today, but I hope we don’t have to watch too many games like that. |  | |  |

Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 09:14 - Apr 6 with 1059 views | RichardO | Sheehan did the hard work watching the last four Derby games,knew he had to keep some height in the team at all times during the game. Did think we battled hard in the middle of the park but thought there where times players had chances to bring the ball down but that would have to be done quickly and moved away with quick feet from the congested area would Fulton be able to do that? Fulton added height into the team but there were times when Tymon needed an outlet in the midfield,O'Brien asked to play further forward and Fulton lying deep to keep us solid but at times needed to step forward into an empty midfield making a pass from Tymon a viable option instead of not making the run forward for the pass similar to Grimes, more noticeable in the second half which meant O'Brien dropped into the midfield and both Franco and Fulton off, Allen on more fluidity in the midfield, Vipotnik and Christie on to maintain the overall height to combat an aerial onslaught. Right team selected and substitutions made on the back of Sheehan due diligence? |  | |  |

he could set up the same on wednesday, his job is to keep us in this div, at the moment its working another 3 points on wednesday, which will NOT be easy should see us safe for next season, I think he ( Sheean) has and is doing a fair job with a not too much quality squad. Now as to our next head coach thats another story, but give the lad credit he is getting results that were and are needed |  | |  |

Plymouth in almost last chance saloon, they are a better side than Derby for me despite their league position. |  |

I didn’t see the game yesterday but watched extended highlights today. I think I would have been close to cardiac arrest going by the highlights and would never have thought we would have scored. I know highlights can be misleading but glad I missed this one😬 Plymouth will be no easier. Hopefully we’ll take the game to them a bit more. |  |

We made yesterday a lot harder than it was, but due to our lineup and tactics, neither did we. I’m being a lot more negative than I normally am after a win, but that was an awful watch and neither team deserved anything from the game |  | |  |
