Its FA Cup day on Saturday, where the winners win a cup, not on Saturday but in the future, the final played at Wembley, a stadium near Tottenham.
Saturday 23rd January 2021 Liberty Stadium Kick off 3pm

More interesting is bumbling cluster biff Robert Madley who is an experiment. Madley see's things others dont see, he makes decisions yet to be regulated, his ability to foresee things and make them up in his own mind so the little pixies can have their dinner every day is remarkable. Madley was sacked as a premier league referee because he doesn't think about what he does and makes decisions without reflection, like utilising a disability as a joke. Here is his excuse - Madely is still a moron, and always will be. Including robbing Swansea of obvious goals and awarding all manner of thickhead decisions against the team. Madley wrote: “As I sat in my car with my phone in hand, a person walked past my car in front of me who had a walking impairment. The next part I am ashamed of. I took a six-second film, I said nothing. I did this in Snapchat, which is where I take all of my films that I intend to save to my phone" Of course that isn't exactly correct because the buffoon then wrote "On the video I wrote, 'F**k me I have a chance of winning the parents race this year.' The blokes an utter div.
Swansea and Forest FA cup history 12th January 1929 Forest 1 Swans 2 Exciting results that day were Aston Villa 6 Cardiff 1 and Norwich 0 Corinthians 5. With the swans going in to the second leg on Saturday 2-1 up there's all to play for.
Steve Cooper talks about Saturdays game
Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup Nottingham Forest have won the FA Cup twice, once in 1959. The 1959 FA Cup Final was contested by Nottingham Forest and Luton Town at Wembley. Forest won 2—1, with goals from Roy Dwight and Tommy Wilson just four minutes apart.
Forest in 1898 with the FA Cup, the bloke on the right wearing a cap kills animals and maybe even people
In the 1897/98 season Forest beat Derby County 3-1 in the FA Cup final at Crystal Palace in front of 63,000 fans, all of whom are dead, as are the teams and everyone else there that day. Not even Robin Hood was there, he was out riding a bloke called Glen, a non too choosy type who liked hanging around with a band of men. Forest also lost in the 1991 final to Spurs, some will recall Paul Gascoigne getting his comeuppance when he injured himself fouling Forest players. The referee that day was Roger Milford Haven, interestingly Roger now lives there and claims the dole and sells fish he has found in the drains. Or maybe he doesn't.
Team News Connor Hourihane is available for the swans as is Jordan Morris, expect changes in the starting eleven. It’s unlikely Cooper will play Webb in goal, Hamer is cup tied so Woodman should start. We could see another start for Cameron Evans.

Another goal where you are left thinking "Woodman could have prevented that".
It feels like it's every other goal.
I could have scored that goal in my carpet slippers - the goalkeeper had no chance. Why blame him when the goal resulted from our defence farting around with short passes in the penalty area, getting their knickers well in a twist, and giving Knockaert a point blank shot he couldn’t miss?
Your constant carping about Woodman, who had another excellent game, is very tedious.

Latibeaudiere at fault. I'm not a gigantic Woodman fan but Lati should have done anything other than what he actually did. But he's young he'll learn been good so far. These are the games to make a mistake in.
It was BUT a keeper should be controlling his area and bullying his defence.Woody is silent and it doesnt help his defender. Classic case when Bennett when Woody stayed still and let Bennett take responsiblity for a basic clearance-again. I cannot believe we have so many making allowances for this guy. It is incredible.He is not even a Swansea/Welsh boy or even our own player. Staggering

Really. I see Bennett as being hung out to dry at times.
Fair play,Fred has some fan club,worthy of the Mark Gower one
He is a Swansea City player therefore should be supported by Swansea City fans keeper has always seen some controversy at the Swans, Potter,Crudgington,Glan Letemin Letheran and Dai Davies....I do not understand how so called fans crtisice so much....the same as the vitriol Cooper has received being called a clown a fraud et al despite getting us to the play offs in his first season. But then it's all about style I remember the style of Colin Appleton and our fall the last time from the top table....this is at worst is so much better than then

Hardly incredible when you look at his stats and where we are in the league is it.

When are you going to get it that goalkeeping has moved on from the sixties
You give it out, you take it back it`s all part of the game
Swansea City v Nottingham Forest : Matchday Thread FA Cup 4th Rd TEAMS on 17:43 - Jan 23 by DwightYorkeSuperstar
Of course you can. He passed the ball to his centre back in a very tight area, where he was closed down immediately. After playing such an awful pass, he should have yelled at him to pass it back or kick it up the pitch.
Instead he just stood there waiting for the young centre back to figure out his bearings on his own.
It was a truly awful piece of goalkeeping and organisation of his defence.
Woodman did nothing wrong.
He passed the ball to iirc latibeaudiere who had enough time to either pass it back to woodman or launch it, he chose to try and pass it to connor, the pass was not on, it got intercepted and the rest we know.
You are blaming the goal on woodman when it was latibeaudieres fault.
You are either on a wind up, need to wear glasses or both.

How many times today did Bennet give away needless corners , anyone care to jump on him tonight or is it only the selected few , We beat a side at our level 5-1 , enjoy it FFS ,
