    The Tumultuous Reign and Unfulfilled Promise of Andy Coleman: A Swansea City Chairman's Downfall

    Oh yeah, not denying that. Just think it's interesting that one of the few things he got right even now some of our own supporters are unwilling to accept.

    Turki Alashikh, Bristol City takeover revelation ...

    Bristol City are already owned by a Billionaire. It hasn't done them much good.

    The Tumultuous Reign and Unfulfilled Promise of Andy Coleman: A Swansea City Chairman's Downfall

    Duff was the wrong fix for a problem correctly identified. We badly needed to move away from the "Swansea Way" approach as utilised by Russell Martin. Coleman's biggest mistake in this whole business was not trying to find a more capable candidate in a similar vein and ultimately wasting another...

    Ronald

    He's a bit 50/50 for me in general. After a very bright start I think he was one in a list of players who wasn't well served by the way Williams wanted to play, but his end product is inconsistent despite some decent stats. Not someone I'd be actively looking to move on, but if we were to be...

    Cardiff City relegation party

    Depends if it's him or the club's accountant making the calls. Their income will be slashed in League One and they've got a lot of highly paid mediocrity on their books. They need to shift all the higher earners they can whether they'd prefer to keep them or not. The fun will start when the few...

    Swansea City Have Parted Ways with Head Coach Luke Williams

    I guess it depends what the terms of his payoff were. Some get a lump sum, others remain on the payroll for the duration of their contract until they find alternative employment. I thought the bloke was a bit of a prat as a manager but can't fault him here. As some have said, it probably beats...

    Eom

    Be interesting to see where we use him. On the flank or in the centre. Currently he'd be my first choice to play at #10, but if we do bring O'Brien back then maybe Widell becomes that and Eom is fighting with Ronald or Inoussa for a spot on the wing. Nice to have options.

    Eom

    A Twitter thread worth a look. An interview with Eom about how it's gone for him here. Insights into how hard he found the pace of the game physically to begin with despite his fitness levels (something to cut the likes of Inoussa and Widell slack for), and also a respectful jab at how playing...

    The problem wasn't so much that we started signing players for higher fees and higher wages. The problem was that we started signing players that Huw Jenkins wanted rather than the coaches he employed. Ki Sung Yeung was a perfect example. Laudrup used him a bit, but clearly preferred De Guzman...

    Feel good factor..

    Definitely still work to be done, and we've had more than enough reason to be suspicious in the past. Does feel a bit different now though.

    Feel good factor..

    A lot of people are getting themselves worked up over the players we've signed so far. It's a fair reaction to bringing Burgess in, who is proven at this level and probably higher. I think we need to temper it a bit with the others though. Inoussa, Widell or Wales will find themselves playing at...

    Summer Transfer Window

    The total price for Sinclair including add ons and bonuses exceeded £1m I think, but in terms of spending more than that in one go it was probably Danny Graham.

    Scotland replaced Trundle and was better than him. A lot of people never forgave that.

    Cameron Burgess

    Absurdly under appreciated as a major player in our rise. Worthy of a lot more respect than he gets.

    Cameron Burgess

    The absolute last thing I'd have called Scotland is a target man to be honest. Bringing others into play was never a strength of his. He was just a ruthless goalscorer. We've not really had anyone like him since. Maybe Piroe was a bit similar in his ability to be anonymous for 20 minutes then...

    Cardiff City relegation party

    Paul Clement was a highly rated coach (he's still Ancelotti's go-to guy. Currently assistant boss with Brazil) but was never much of a manager. Cardiff seem to be putting a hell of a lot of faith in BBM to be different despite the evidence to the contrary so far.

    Aye. He played his best football ghosting into the box from slightly deeper. As a partnership they could have been something special.

    Bafi Gomis

    He looked sharp when he finally broke into the side. Ended his first season with a run of six goals in ten games, then scored in our first four games the following season, but the team started falling to bits as things went on and more of what had worked for years was purged by Monk.
