Swansea City Have Parted Ways with Head Coach Luke Williams

Monk dismissed from the Abbey..

Nun of that talk please.

 

[FearOfAJackPlanet]

How could we sack our best manager since Laudrup?

 

[Swanjaxs]

Nun of that talk please.

Monk had a bit of a habit apparently

Sheehan till the end of the season. We’ll win a few games then in May it’ll be “he deserves a chance on a permanent basis following our upturn in form”

I’m bumping this so if it doesn’t happen everyone can point out I was wrong. Enjoy.

There's the bonus of a few cracking Monk puns just above as well whilst visiting.

I just saw. Jesus. I mean at least he isn't aiming higher. But makes you think what the hell the voices in his head is telling him. At Xmas it was telling him he could go to West Brom job, now it's telling him to drop down a division or 2. Maybe listen to his second voice is best. Duff as well.

Fair play . Did call it.

In fairness on paper the three games against Burnley, Leeds and Sunderland were the toughest games left from his remaining tenure for the season. He came away with 4 points from 9

He has also won almost all the rest barring the Preston draw and the Watford loss.

It wouldn't be inconceivable for him to ride that momentum and win all four remaining games. At what point do people have to swallow their pride and say that he would have earned a shot at the job in an official capacity?

W vs Blackburn (H) - 3-0
D vs Preston (A) - 0-0
W vs Middlesbrough (H) - 1-0
L vs Watford (A) - 0-1
L vs Burnley (H) - 0-2
D vs Leeds (A) - 2-2
W vs Derby (H) - 1-0
W vs Plymouth (H) - 3-0
W vs Sunderland (A) - 1-0

Played 9, won 5, drawn 2, lost 2
17 out of 27 points
11 goals scored
5 goals conceded
6 clean sheets

His four games left: Hull (H), QPR (A), Millwall (A), Oxford (H)
Even if he just picks up two more wins and loses the other two that would give him 23 out of 39 points which is more than enough for playoff form

I know football is alot about confidence and all of that, but I actually hope he is showing more that he and his back room staff are tactically doing a fab job, rather than riding the wave of momentum and players at present time liking their favourite food. Think we are saying same thing. But I just fear that it could unravel at some point. Again it's all a gamble and do we throw the dice on someone who knows the club and will do something or risk a new manager who could tear it all up, and that's a gamble if works or not

Sheehan's strengths right now is that he knows the squad better than any external candidate possibly could.
Not only working with them, but also from a non frontline perspective when he was just an assistant coach
Also we don't need to pay compo to anyone or a huge salary to tempt them over

True. He has watched over last 2 seasons and has built up an understanding while learning his own coaching. If he hasn't convinced those in charge, then get some wins and maybe not get beaten now till end of season and they have to give it to him. Unless they have a superstar of a manager lined up.
