LAST TIME OUT
SWANSEA CITY 3 NORTHAMPTON TOWN 1

BRADFORD CITY 0 PRESTON NORTH END 4




As with last season will miss the epic trip to South Wales perhaps as well as we tend to get little or nothing when we visit this area of the country.
The Swans under new management Steve Cooper have had a decent start to the season considering the off field problems and the sales of McBurnie and James. Only oone player brought in for cash that is Peterson from the Dutch League, have got Sturridge and Freddie Woodman on loan whilst the likes of Baston, Ayew and Montero have returned from loans.
Tough one to call suspect we may come second.

MACS MEMORIES

This one goes back to April 1993, rapidly closing in on 100 consectutive games, drove to this one in my old Rover Metro J894NFV five of us, got stuck in traffic 15 minutes from the start on the main road into the City, we were going to the Vetch in those days.
The weather was abysmal, it was the day Esha Ness won the Grand National or didn't due to the false start error.
Heard these words on the radio, the weather here at Wembley is not great but better than that in the South West and Wales were the games at Torquay and Swansea have been postponed never did make the 100 games on the trot
