We made Swansea look pretty poor and won comfortably. In our solitary win you mean? Yep. The one where we put a weaker side to the sword. Interestingly a weaker side who took a deserved point off Chelsea.

Fixture start Schmixture schmart. As well as the big ones we've played Reading Sunderland and Norwich and failed to win. Can't hide behind the fixture list any longer.

Well you can twist individual scores in any given game to fit an agenda. Blackburn won at Old Trafford last season and got relegated. We played a Swansea side in a mini-slump (not a calendar year-slump). You can't spin 5 wins from 32 league matches into something that it's not though- even the editor of Pravda would struggle with that one.

No but I'm sure you could produce some pretty positive spin from our home record against top six clubs if you wanted.

Organised , decent to watch and plenty of goals in them , spent a lot less than us too And will be battling with the dead men at the end of the season, whereas we will have been effectively safe months before, yet again. For months I've been undecided as to whether March really believes his posts or is just on a wind-up, playing devil's advocate. I think this one finally settles it.

Do you actually post anything else other than defending tone and his tactics? Just a question like.

We survive because we are organised and take very few risks, remember a lot of the attacking reasons for our success were , 1, The throw , 2, Ric . the exception to this was the spell in the run to wembley when we looked a decent side . Last season we barely scored enough and this is carrying on this season its awful to watch

Said at the start of the season that if we do not start creating chances and putting more men forward we will struggle. Tony cannot change his style of play we are shite to watch. So come on Tony lets see variety for alls sake
