The only thing going for us is the stats when it comes to swansea ? won them 12 times drawn 10 and  lost 5   the last time and only time weve ever played them in the cup was in 1962 and we won 1-0 at Hillsborough   although we havnt won the last 4 times we met and the last time we did win them was in 1984 i remember it well we battered them 6-1 those were the days  infact playing swansea at the end of the sevnties start of the 80s was 6pts in the bag when the fixtures came out  god how things have changed you wouldnt have even thought it for 1 second  

I remember that 1984 6-1 win.  We were stood on the Kop for that one and there was a snow storm during the game, back in those days I went to games on my motorbike so we put our helmets on and as the wind was blowing directly into the Kop I think we were the only ones who actually could watch the game!!!

I think we've been here before SCO but I remember seeing you at that match and remarking to the lass I was with about the two guys in crash helmets   you were behind the goal about 15 to 20 rows back if my memory serves   I used to stand just to the side of the goal about 5 or 6 rows back  

Yes that would be about right. I remember the crowd was low to start with and it emptied even more as the snow got heavier, near the end we noticed there was virtually no one around us and just small pockets of fans on the kop. Of course the posh gits in the South and North stand were nicely covered up with their fancy roofs!!!!
