The Weekend That Was....

So i've just woken up, 12:45 I woke up to be precise, but that's ok because it is half term. I thought I  would try my first "proper" blog post about the weekends football, so here goes.

I'm a Swansea city fan, so most weeks I will be talking about Swansea, Swans were playing Doncaster this week so check out the following highlights.   

Swansea Vs Doncaster

A pretty straight forward win for the Swans, by the time they got the first goal it because more about how many we would score, we could have scored so many more as well.

I read BBC 606 allot, and on there you will always find talk about how we need a "Big Striker" who can score week in and week out, although I do agree with that on a certain level I think at the moment we are doing fine.

With Luke Moore scoring as well this could be the start of him scoring, it took him 7-8 games to score but now that he has I really hope that he starts scoring alot me, perhaps he could be the answer to the "Big Striker" question.

Although it may not seem like it, this was probably one of the most important fixtures of the season, not because of the team we were playing but because of the other teams around us fixtures. 

This is how the table stands at the moment.

                      Games   GD    Points

1 QPR          32      31 61

2 Forest       31      16 56

3 Swansea  32      14 56

4 Cardiff      32      13 55

5 Norwich    32      10 55

6 Leeds        32      10 53

As you can tell, QPR are quite far ahead, and I personally think they will run away with the league and win it. I think that Swansea can finish 2nd, but it's not going to be easy.

With Cardiff loosing to Forest and Norwich and Leeds Drawing it was exactly what we wanted, pushing us up to 3rd!

I don't follow premier league teams that much, because I prefer the lower leagues, but it was the FA Cup this weekend so I thought I would talk about the 2 biggest games.

Chelsea Vs Everton

Unfortunately I couldn't find any highlights for this, I checked Youtube and BBC but nothing.

From the start I thought it was going to be a close game, and I wasn't wrong. Going to extra time and Chelsea getting a goal I thought it was over. Baines scored in the 119th minute to put it to penalties. Everton won 4-3 on penalties.

I wasn't overly surprised by the result, but it was a little bit unexpected. Obviously this is a huge win for Everton, not just progressing in the cup but for the whole team, this will probably give them confidence in the league as well.

Over the past couple of months Chelsea have lost and drawn some big games which they should have won, Including - Fulham,Wolves,Birmingham and Sunderland. In my notes I titled this section "The Demise Of Ancelotti" That may be a bit drastic, but he could be leaving Chelsea soon.

With Chelsea being top a couple of months ago, they have thrown the league away and are now 5th, for Chelsea, 5th is simply not good enough, so come the end of the season I am doubtful Ancelotti will be at the club. 

I had planned to talk about the Arsenal v Leyton Orient game, but this has dragged on more than expected so I'm going to leave that one out and call this one to an end. 

Thanks for reading this far, Hope you enjoyed my first "proper" post, my next one will be on Thursday about the Champions League results, or I may post one tommorow about some Gaming but it all depends.

Thanks,Bye!
