Comments:
Unused substitutes: Martin Hollund and Paul Stephenson. League Position: 8thComments:
Unused substitutes: Roger Freestone and Nick Cusack. League Position: 19th In their first match since Nick Cusack was appointed player / manager, this was Swansea's heaviest defeat since they lost 0-7 at Fulham in the First Round of the FA Cup in November 1995. And one of the Cottagers' scorers that day was the same Nick Cusack.
