I do hope that the injury sustained in the warm up was not serious. We are a very small squad at the moment and need all our players fit.

Me too, with Samuel due to go back next week, Cody a couple of weeks min away and Williamson gone we are really short up top. List may get his chance by the looks of it and he has real pace to burn. See Williamson scored again today, assisted by legge, great to see them doing well.

There seems to have been a lot of activity in the January transfer window apart from us. There may be something going on behind closed doors but there is only a week to go and I am surprised that we have not bought a couple of players in.

Think he is waiting on oshilaja and Samuel and if he can secure these for the rest of the season there not much wrong With the rest. Since mid December we have played some very good stuff so I can't see him wanting to change it to much player wise and if we get it right tactically then I wouldn't change much at all.

I appreciate that but we only need a couple more injuries and we could struggle with substitute players. Even before Cody was injured he was not playing at his best and when he returns it may be sometime before he is 100%. We could be in trouble if we can't secure Samuel and Oshilaja.

Don't totally disagree apart from the fact I believe he said that he did hint that one of his targets transfer had been delayed due to a short term injury.

i hope donnelly's injury during the warm up will not keep him out of side for the next match, even though norris scored today, he is not good enough in my opinion to be considered first team material in my eyes, he comes across as lazy and overweight and being more critical, the peterborough defender should have cleared his goal and norris missed some sitters too, i would like to see another forward come in to partner samuel if rory not fit for blackpool game.

luke norris is equvilent to a gary mulligan or danny kedwell, works hard but no real goal threat which states the obvious in my eyes, he can join a lower league side like dagenham, hartlepool, yeovil, cambridge or ebbsfleet, i'm quite sure thats his standard.

Norris has recently came back from an injury and before he was injured was playing exceptionally well. Well worthy of a place after yesterday as I thought he covered a lot of ground, defended from the front and got a goal. Appreciate he missed a sitter but they all do. Give him a chance.

Swans gills, I'm sorry but you are way wide of the mark. Norris got a standing ovation when he came off yesterday and for good reason. He's an extremely important part of the side and was instrumental in our win yesterday. His goal was an expert finish, putting the ball back across the keeper. Yes, he should have had a couple more but to say he's not a goal threat is frankly rubbish. Despite what some say he wins his fair share in the air and holds the ball up well. Thankfully JED is less blinkered.

i really do hope we can keep samuel till the end of the season, if reading keep performing well, hopefully JED can persuade brian mcdermott he can stay because dominic has been brilliant for us, im sorry if i keep going on about norris, but i have a very strong opinion on norris's ability and for me he is below adequate and there are plenty of better strikers around. Anyway, lets all enjoy this weekend and already looking forward to the blackpool game next weekend.
up the gills !!!

Nice one mark, you done the work for me as I too thought the stats would hold up and very impressive they are. A number of them were before Samuel arrived also I believe.

The improvement in Luke Norris's allround play this season has been noted by most fair-minded supporters. He looked as if he is nearly back to his pre-injury form yesterday so I will be happy if he continues up front for the remainder of the season. Swansgill your comments can only cause a player to lose confidence and if you can't find anything positive to say about a player it would be better if you keep your prejudices to yourself.
