They stayed in the Doubletree last season.

Their only hope tbh.

I won’t mention fading again till April. That’s when fadey April starts.
I'm worried that you could be right about a foul fest. How the ref manages this game early on will be key.

Dishing out yellow cards where deserved from the start, dealing with time wasting and making big calls early, will set the tone for this one. Not doing so will as well🙈.

I have no concerns about today’s outcome. If it was at their place I would have been edgy.
Hopefully we get the early goal and set the traps when they start to get adventurous and commit more forward.
Perhaps initially they might have a go but the game will quickly settle down.
I think they will then revert to a similar set up, which many teams employ at our place. 2 banks of 5 positionally when defending, I will be surprised if they press very often, they will let us play the ball around in our own half - looking to break quickly with a long ball if they win second balls at the contact points.

Set piece will again be crucial at both ends of the pitch

Seem to remember that was mentioned on here Swannie, remember us joking about Mes being really tall and, obviously, James is a touch on the short side 😁

Between Wakey and Cas. Known, also, for two beautiful Swans.

I’m always a little worried before a game we should win, just because the jeopardy in football is that the better team doesn’t always come out on top.

Having said that, I’m pleasantly surprised when we just roll over the opposition, and hopefully that’s the way it’ll be today.

This game worries me. Millwall are on a very good run of form.

Of course they all worry me.

No surprises at all.
This is the starting line up I thought DF would go with.

What about PB being preferred to Piroe constantly ?

Funny, isn't it, how managers generally prefer their best players.
