Yeovil , Hartlepool and Carlisle could be pulled into the dogfight.

still stale - he has hardly played for months now and needs time on the pitch

Guy on the phone in says it was a terrible match, still lumping it. Didn't sound like it on the commentary.

Bugger, I wanted a Swansea v Man U game

Even Elphick ?

It was not a bad game. There have been far worse this season. At least there was a lot of effort, but we are clearly lacking direction. We need a half decent manager very, very badly. The referee was an absolute joke. But we should have won it at the end. Two good chances, and there was also a clear handball in the box from Northampton, although it wouold have been harsh to give it.

 

[skipper734]

Yes that was the impression I got from the commentary, so good game from the seagulls?

 

[Basil Fawlty]

We started brightly and looked threatening. Northampton were just sending long ball after long ball to Akinfenwa and Constantine, but we dealt with it well I thought apart from one deep free-kick which was cleared from. I want to know who the poor coach was who told a young Coxy that you can take set-pieces! If we had Glenn Murray on the pitch then I think the result would of been alot different. It really should off been three points through if Davies didn't smash the seem off the ball!

If it was a clear handball, how would it has been harsh

 

[Notters]

Well no, that's why he got 5!

It clearly hit the defender's hand, but it was at pace, and his arm was by his body. I hope that is enough clarification.
