David Gold told Claret and Hugh within the last few minutes: “I’m expecting a result at Swansea this afternoon. “The co chairman has just arrived at the Liberty Stadium and told us: This is not like the old days when we travelled hoping to get something – I now go everywhere expecting to win.”
He added: “Obviously it’s a tough game but there’s no Bony up front and we are in very a positive mood. It was a shame we didn’t get the win I thought we were destined for at Everton.
“But we played very well and despite the run of games without a win we are here in good spirits with confidence very high in the squad.
“Andy Carroll caused mayhem in their defence last time and there’s no reason to beleve we won’t see more of the same.
“I’m confident that we can get at least but very confident we can collect all three. It’s well within our reach.”
Not with Sam happy to sit on 1 nil leads we wont … We are not good enough to defend a 1 nil lead & almost nobody in the Prem is. When will fatty learn this simple fact
WE are a team that should be closer to 40 points than 30. Again Allardyce persists with Nolan and without Song,Sahko and Kouyate we struggle.This manager will never realize the team’s full potential.WE are only where we are because of an influx of quality players and not because of any perceived Allardyce “management skill”.Again we are seeing more of the same mediocrity from an inept manager.The team suffers and the fans suffer.
