    horrible team. time wasting, whining, moaning, if we had a manager that had our players doing s_hit like that i wouldn;t go and watch us.

    People can sing their praises, say how great Michael Laudrup is etc....but f_ck me, what a bloody frustrating team to watch. 

    The fans go to watch a game of football, not watch ball boy's cuddling balls, or the goalkeeper making a save and taking 2 minutes to get to his feet, or taking 3 minutes to take a goal kick....not the type of football i like, but its personal preference at the end of the day.

    Does remind me of a time when we were winning against United at Goodison with not long left on the clock and Moyes had the ball boys collect in all the spare balls... haha

    yes i remember mate, was called 'multi ball' and shortly after that game fifa/fa changed the rules about it, so you couldnt do it anymore....

    at least the goalie didnt take 3 days to take a goal kick..........

    to be fair, Howard can take an age to take a goal kick too, when it suits....
    and I hate when he does it....

    i hate it when any players do it mate, the paying public don;t pay to go see footballers wasting minutes whiling away our hard earned money.

    True that......refs need to stamp out all kinds of "gamesmanship".....
    Sky don't do it anymore, but a while back they used (well i think it was them) to show a stat of the actual playing time during a game.....some games would barely be over 50 mins out of 90....

    mate when we played Swansea couple of weeks back, i reckon second half the ball was in play 20-25 minutes max. last half hour, 12-15 minutes def no more. You have a 4 and half hour round trip, cost of match tickets, bit of food, few quid to park, 30 quid in fuel.....for that? Irritates me mate it really does.

    That Pablo Hernandez lad for Swansea is absolutely "nathan dyer" whenever I've watched him. How did he get over 100 games for Valencia?

    To be honest they are the least favorite welsh team of every welsh man if that makes sense... 

    Swansea is a horrible place
