Starting to make our dominance count now. Billy Phillips with a rasping drive from 20 yards just over the bar, followed by some lovely footwork from the same player inside the box forcing the keeper into a good save. Tommy Blacwell played in maybe should have scored but for another fine save.

Phillips probably the pick of our players to date, playing no.10 role.

Billy Phillips feels like a vintage footballers name. Billy's Boots multiplied by Kevin Phillips equals Billy Phillips, a lethal marksman.

Elijah Morrison playing some lovely balls in to the middle. Phillips close again with his effort kicked off the line.

Big Rob off (78 mins) as a precaution after clash of heads from a corner in their box. Seems OK.

How’s Rob Atkinson playing? Still on?

Steady game. See above

One of the things we’ve always said is that we’d like to play the same way through the club and I, for one, am glad to see us implementing that philosophy 

Game has panned out that way too. All over them for the first 25 minutes then go 1-0 down. Scrappy second half with no real patterns of play. Swans score a wicked goal from outside the area to make it 2-0 and looking likely to add to it in the closing minutes.

Notable that the report groups Murphy in with Atkinson and McCrorie in terms of getting minutes. I don't think that would happen if he's not being seen as one for the first team squad.

It seems they play hokey-cokey with young Murphy, depending on what suits their agenda!
