• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler

I'm going with Friday 2nd September 2022. We play Stoke City on Wednesday before, they'll beat us comfortably and the owners won't have any other choice.
 
The earliest it will be will be during the World Cup break and it probably won’t happen at all.

The owners would have to pay him and his coaches off and then find a new manager. They won’t do that.
 
Can we afford to sack him? Financially speaking I mean.
We ain't got a pot to piss in and his (plus back room staff's) severance is likely to be a decent sum (for us).
 
If we sell Piroe within this window then the date will be sooner rather than later; some transfer fee will be syphoned off into an envelope labelled as ‘Private & Confidential’.

If we cannot sell Piroe then I think we are stuck with him for the foreseeable future.

Come on Watford, you know what to do.
 
I think you all maybe surprised.

No information on that just a hunch. Sooner rather than later

Can we afford not to sack him considering we may well be hurtling towards league 1.

Surely dropping down would have far more financial repercussions that sacking him but the biggest issue will be finding a good quality manager who wants to work for free, good luck with that.
 
They wont sack him, they'll squeeze him until he resigns
 
No chance he goes before the international break at the end of September. If we're in the bottom three then, maybe.

I suspect at his interview promises were made by both parties, if he was promised he could pick the players he wanted then the owners obviously have reneged on the deal, if he promised he would carry on the 'swansea way' then he has partly reneged but its because he wasn't consulted on some of the players that have been brought in, if that's the case I would stay put until it either comes together or the sack him.

But what he really needs to do is adapt the playing style as the players he has arent upto the standard he requires, he hasn't helped himself with sending out players that we the fans think are good enough but we are not Martin or any his coaching team.

To answer the OP unless he gets us at least 3 wins out of the next 7 games upto the international break he could go.
 
If you reckon they will do this before it's more or less essential to keep us in this league, you are very much mistaken. You are overestimating the level of interest the Yanks have in our future, if you think they're going to shell out compo and go through the upheaval of finding a new manager unless it's rock bottom at Christmas. a) They don't want to shell out compo, b) they couldn't care less unless relegation is looking nailed on.
 
We'll win one and draw the other at Boro and Stoke or win both. I have a feeling. Sorry. Everything will be sweetness and light in Yankee-wankee Land then for a while.

The thing is with my feelings though, he's likely to be toast by Saturday night.

I think he'll walk. I don't think he has the mental strength to cope with not being adored.
 
Mons probably right. When he run out of people to blame he will walk. He's already getting his story worked out in advance.

That last comment mony is spot on.

Can't for the life of me seeing us beat Stoke, not after last season.
 
Why would he walk and not get his payout?

Managers just don’t do that.
