    What type of manager do we want?

    To be fair to him he has 6 assists and 1 goal this season and can cause teams problems on his day. If he cost £1m then to me, that's a decent return. Especially when compared with how much we've spent on people like Tymon, Bianchini, Eom, the Ukrainian, Pederson, etc etc etc

    What type of manager do we want?

    Someone who can help us bring in good players at a decent price in markets that other teams are perhaps overlooking. Ronald and Franco are examples of us getting decent value where other sides aren't looking. I know Ronald blows hot and cold but he's infinitely better than we'd have got from...

    Swansea City: Is time up for Luke Williams after dismal derby day display heightens pressure?

    Personally, I would be appointing Sheehan until the end of the season. I would then use that time to start to look for and talk with other options. The whole 'blueprint' (assuming we have one) should be torn up..no "Swansea Way" bollocks. We should be asking potential candidates what their...

    Luke Williams - Jack Army Poll

    I'm no fan of Williams but to be fair to him the players on the bench are usually considerably worse than the players on the pitch who themselves are pretty shit.

    January Transfer Rumours

    Signing an ex Sheffield Wednesday defender from abroad couldn't possibly go wrong

    Welsh League Cup

    I'm not sure we'll particularly be able to attract a higher quality of player on anything near enough a regular basis to make this worthwhile. Bearing in mind we actually need to qualify for this thing in the first place which, in reality, we'd be lucky to once every 3 or 4 years or so...

    The Women's Ashes

    It's disappointing to see them appear to have gone backwards over the last 18 months or so. After the last Ashes, I thought they were going to really kick on and challenge the Aussies but they appear to be inconsistent at best, especially when Sciver Brunt and Knight don't get going like they...

    The Women's Ashes

    If you love cricket then I think if you gave women's international cricket a real go, you'd enjoy it. Even the T20 stuff is far less smash and grab than the men's because there are usually far less boundaries, especially as the more effective bowlers tend to be spinners/slower bowlers with...

    The Women's Ashes

    You wouldn't watch Boston United v Sutton United because you have no affiliation to either of the teams. The players on display would also be some of the worst professional male footballers in the country playing against each other in a crap league. However, you would presumably watch Swansea...

    January Transfer Rumours

    The beauty with Ronald is that he gets into good positions pretty often. I guess at the level we are currently at it doesn't matter if you have a player who gets into good positions three times a game and gets an assist from that position once every 15 times (i.e. 1 assist every 5 games) or a...

    January Transfer Rumours

    Whilst I too think that lots of these stats are "arse dribble" like you, there is definitely some room to consider them. If a winger is consistently putting balls into the box that a competent striker would be expected to finish but the strikers he's playing with are crap, then the player in...

    Has he gone? Or if not when will it happen?

    Agree we could do without another change in manager and we are moving in the right direction with him, albeit at a snails pace. The rumours yesterday by supposed ITKs are a red herring because I don't think most people would have begrudged him leaving. However, at the same time, I don't see how...

    Has he gone? Or if not when will it happen?

    "It can create uncertainty, can't it? I think people feel more comfortable when they have clarity. But I don't think that's got anything to do with today." Doesn't exactly stack up with him saying he was treating it as a "wind up".

    Has he gone? Or if not when will it happen?

    You may be right, although it has been covered quite widely in more mainstream places like BBC, so maybe it will cut through, as they say. Its probably a bit more than kids chatting on X and us older heads talking on here. His press conference at 2 is going to be interesting anyway!

    Has he gone? Or if not when will it happen?

    In which case he's still been naive. I know it's the fashion for some to be critical of our support, call our fans derogatory names, etc. but we do have a generally well engaged fanbase who support the club passionately in fairly big numbers. Not every club has that. Williams has enjoyed the...

    Has he gone? Or if not when will it happen?

    The "they won't want me after that" comment or whatever it was, I agree. Clearly a joke and I don't see an issue with that. However, the comment about the speculation creating uncertainty with the players I thought was strange because irrespective of whether he thinks it contributed to the...

    Has he gone? Or if not when will it happen?

    Possibly and there's unlikely to ever be proof over something like that so they can say what they like. However, I think Williams has handled it very poorly, one way or another. I don't know whether he's been hedging his bets, openly making it clear he's interested in moving or simply saying...

    Has he gone? Or if not when will it happen?

    To be fair, Wales Online is also reporting that the 'hierarchy' are unhappy with the way in which Williams has dealt with the speculation so, if true, it's a bit more than fans getting carried away.

    Has he gone? Or if not when will it happen?

    I know we can't really predict results in football and we could be sitting here in a month having gone on an amazing run and having made some positive January signings and everyone being happy. However, from an objective perspective, we have a tough game tomorrow, a tough FA Cup trip, Cardiff...

    Comparison to 23/24

    I suppose it's neither here nor there. Although when you consider that Duff presided over our worst start to a season for decades and was universally hated, it does make you wonder why Williams is/was so popular in some quarters.
