Championship Playoff Final

[Swanjaxs]

Give it a break FFS.

Just my opinion old bean .

 

[Resolvenjack]

They'll be dancing in the streets of Resolven tonight...

Oh no I won't, maybe someone on the hillside above Resolven will

You think?
I think going to prem will heighten our chances of them coming back in for him.

They’re already signing Harwood Bellis on a permanent deal, can see them aiming higher than Wood.

Nathan Wood is scarcely Championship quality, the idea they'd come back in and get him now they're a PL team is laughable.

He is English, a current U21 international with 12 months left in his contract.
I don't know how much we will get but he will be a tempting option for a few clubs this summer.
It works for us.

Fist pumps galore

Course, what else did you expect......he just got his team promoted to the premier league.

 

[Bluenile]

Wood is NOT EVEN Championship quality. I've never seen such a hoo-ha over such a mediocre player.

Good luck to him, deserves all the praise he gets for taking the arguably the second best squad up through the play offs.

I hope he enjoys his Tofu and pepper mint tea in celebration.

One of the three relegated sides might be interested, perhaps. But I'd be shocked if any PL side came in for him. Did himself no favours at all last season, and he wasn't all that good the season before, he just stood out as best of a bad bunch.

So Martin will become the second manager in a row to leave us and get promoted by the playoffs the next season. If Duff gets up next season with Hudds ...

Makes you think doesn't it? I'm no fan of Martin myself, but the first 3 managers that were appointed here after relegation will manage in the Premier league. It seems , most of the time that we make the right appointments, but unfortunately they don't seem to be backed enough with the right quality to complete the job.

 

[Swansea93]

Apparently over 20 members of the Swans staff went to support Martin at Wembley today?

He has all the tools, he is young and makes silly mistakes.......clubs will be interested but will it be to the value that we will be looking for.

Certainly a pattern.

Should have put Dan on at half time. He was the only one who came close to making something happen. When you’ve been that bad in the first half you need to draw a veil over it, make the changes and approach the second half with a different mindset.

So many managers wait until 60/65 minutes to make the change that’s been obvious from the first quarter of the game. Be proactive, make something different happen.

Martin with complete freedom at Swansea was a very different manager to Martin working under Jason Wilcox at Southampton. For one thing they never fully adopted the Martin defensive system.
