Can Swansea nick that last playoff spot?League One Swansea City by SwanseaToon (U3109504) 28 April 2007 Thankfully Darryl Duffy kept Swansea in touch with the last playoff place today with his last minute winner against Carlisle, much to my delight. However, looking at the fixtures for next week it looks difficult for Swansea to make it. Oldham (who won today as well) have got Chesterfield, who are already relegated, at home next week. This appears to be a much easier match than Swansea's against Blackpool. If Swansea keep their recent good form and Oldham slip up (Chesterfield playing for pride may be more up for it than Oldham) then of course Swansea are in. Obviously if Swansea lose then they are out of it. Latest 10 commentsRead members' comments or add your own

I have lived in England for over 25 years and you guys often wonder why the Welsh, Irish and Scotish don't support you. We are a proud sporting nation who can only ever do our best and we will be doing that this Saturday. If you hold bad feelings towards the Welsh I suggest you keep your remarks to yourself and embrase Brtish football instead of creating a devide within our nation.

I hope we end the season with a bang. But even if we don't make it, next season Martinez is capable of pushing us to automatic promotion spot.

My mate knows one of the back room staff at OAFC and apparently Lee Richardson (former Blue of course) is gonna do us a favour and play a weakened team. Saying that though you cant really say the 1st choice eleven is that strong! come on the mighty latics!!
