Money talks obviously...BUT I do feel that taking the Boro job comes with a lot of expectations and a decent chance of regression. I have seen them a few times and been underwhelmed - and I believe they are greater than the sum of their parts.
They do also, however, have the most patient and faithful chairman in the whole of football
The Swans, in contrast, are dramatically underperforming (although not all posters on here would agree). I think we have a VERY talented group of players (best since relegation IMO) and I could quite easily see us upwardly mobile with some fresh attacking ideas, confidemce and a run of fortune.
We remain a very attractive club - our alumni almost always progress their careers on the back of a spell on the Welsh riviera
