    Relegation Update

    I am conflicted. I don't want to see any Welsh team get relegated, and I don't want to see the team in the capital go down, because its the Welsh capital. But ... but I do enjoy more than a little schadenfreude when Cardiff lose and relegation would be just oh so funny. I have a solution, chuck...

    Season 24/25| The Official Match Thread | Watford 1 Swansea City 0 | Att: 16,739 | The EFL Championship

    Exactly, 1/4 second more time and he puts it past the keeper. I think he'll get that.

    Season 24/25| The Official Match Thread | Watford 1 Swansea City 0 | Att: 16,739 | The EFL Championship

    I'm not happy to see Harris injured, not at all, but he is a loan, and given that the team is suddenly in 'push on' mode it is an opportunity to develop one of our own players. Vipotnik is suddenly getting into good positions and receiving the ball, being part of switching sides in front of...

    New Manager

    Spain have given up trying to make 'keep it on the floor' football work, so has everyone else who actually wins. The counters are simple, easy and well known. You can keep it on the floor for long periods, but you have to be prepared to chip and use movement. That's what Laudrup did when he was...

    New Manager

    He wants to manage a team. If does well in the last 10 and Swansea don't keep him on, he will go elsewhere, as a manager who now has 'EPL credentials'. I dread the Board bringing in a new wunderkind who rapidly finds that the team can't play his system and retreats into a defensive borefest of...

    Michael Duff Sacked ...

    How do you know he got a pay-off? He may have fallen foul of performance measures and got very little.

    New Manager

    I liked what Sheehan did last time he was in charge, I think he was the best of the last four managers, a view reinforced by Saturday. My fear is that the Board will get the guy 'they really want' who will turn out to be yet another Messiah with a system who plays lots of players out of position...

    New Manager

    It would make sense to see if Sheehan can get some performances out of the team. Even if they see Sheehan as strictly temporary it would help to persuade people to come here if the players look a bit better than they did under Williams. I would be a sound reason to not rush things.

    New Manager

    Whoever it is, please no more of this vanity of playing guys out of position. 2nd rate managers all insist on doing it to prove how 'insightful' they are, the guy has one decent half hour and they do the whole "I wuz right!" thing. Never mind the fact that he's lost and useless the rest of the...

    Williams may have gone but the real problems at Swansea City still remain

    The appointment of Montague has at least two explanations, 1. The obvious one, that they brought him in to support Williams and then suddenly Williams position became untenable (results, losing the dressing room, insulting the club), their view changed and they sacked him in a volte face. 2...

    That's OK, if people tell me I don't know what I'm talking about, experience has taught me they are probably right. But thank you for clearing away the unpleasantness, it's better without.

    Swansea City Have Parted Ways with Head Coach Luke Williams

    As I thought. Coleman is the kind of manager who will enthuse to all and sundry, including yourself, about what a wonderful job you are doing, then his gofer puts the latest stats on his desk, you're below the line and you get sacked in the morning. It's a common style of management in the US...

    We Need A Manager Bounce - Badly

    You should try it, the fresh air is good. It would make you a better person.

    We Need A Manager Bounce - Badly

    I am fairly sure that Coleman is the kind of manager who believes in giving full support and he will eulogise to your face about the wonderful job you are doing, and sack you in the morning. I've known a few, there is no middle ground, you are wonderful and then suddenly you are out.

    We Need A Manager Bounce - Badly

    When Ronald arrived he set the league on fire, I saw in the Guardian "Championship Swansea have captured a Premier League player". Now? Why is that?
