His record as a manager has been pretty impressive to be fair to him so hopefully he can get the best out of a talented squad. Shame for Guidolin cos it looked like he could have got the season going with a few more games but it is what it is. | | | | |

At least now on 19:16 - Oct 3 with 1581 views | Wingstandwood | The likes of Rodgers and Laudrup did rather seem to have the right contacts and ability to attract and sign exactly the right players most of the time. Martinez wasn't all that bad either albeit backed up by Kevin Reeves. I just get the extremely worrying vibe that this guy in combo with our very own D.O.F impostor/joke i.e. HJ is going to be an absolute player recruitment disaster. Our very own Premier League scenario-equivalent of Nick Cusack's reign at the helm. He was sooooooooo damn good at signing complete and utter sh#te. [Post edited 3 Oct 2016 19:20]

I have no choice to accept it, but that does not mean I have to like it. To try and find positives, he might be backed in January, then again, we might be well adrift with a manager out of his depth, and the owners decide they don’t want to throw good money after bad. If you think his CV is impressive, then you’re easily impressed. | |

At least now on 19:26 - Oct 3 with 1534 views | Jango | Name me a manager with a good cv that would come to us then? And I edited my post to add a word I'd missed out. | | | |
At least now on 19:28 - Oct 3 with 1524 views | SwansNZ | We had a decent manager. | |

At least now on 19:33 - Oct 3 with 1511 views | mahoss | The problem is he won't get the support of the players....... | | | |

At least now on 19:57 - Oct 3 with 1460 views | mahoss | You only have to look at the reaction on the net to the appointment for your answer ! Get a respected manager in and it's a different outcome,look at Jurgen Klopp. | | | |
At least now on 20:08 - Oct 3 with 1446 views | Jango | The Jurgen Klopps of this world aren't coming to Swansea mun! | | | |
At least now on 20:11 - Oct 3 with 1436 views | mahoss | 3 months ago,we had the chance to appoint Brendon Rodgers, a proven manager at this level and a Swansea legend. We have ended up with Bob Bradley,I rest my case.........! | | | |
At least now on 20:14 - Oct 3 with 1425 views | SwansNZ | We didn't appoint BR because we had a better manager - much to Huw's disappointment, I'm sure. 3 months later, we've swiftly turned into Aston Yankie Villa | |

At least now on 20:16 - Oct 3 with 1419 views | Jango | The Brendan Rodgers who had a bad managerial record and hardly any experience before coming to us? Who then jumped ship at the first opportunity? | | | |
At least now on 20:25 - Oct 3 with 1400 views | blueytheblue | Domestic trophies in the USA came at his first club oops franchise. Won nothing at the next two. Managing in Norway,, well by comparison Ole Gunnar Solskjaer won the Norwegian league with Molde in his first season - Molde having nearly relegated the season before. Le Havre? Poor standard of football, definitely. A quality manager would surely have romped it via man management, tactical acumen and leadership? Finished 4th in division 2 - weren't the top 3 finishing managers available for interview? | |
| |
At least now on 20:25 - Oct 3 with 1399 views | mahoss | Yes the same one,the one that took us into the Premier League playing great football and keeping us there,and then left for Liverpool,a huge club ! He was available,but we have Bob,it's all good ! | | | |
At least now on 20:26 - Oct 3 with 1392 views | Murph75 | How's 2nd bottom of the championship? | | | |
At least now on 20:28 - Oct 3 with 1388 views | blueytheblue | It's irrelevant to the thread but since you asked politely... Disappointing. Too early in the season for major concern as it's still tight. | |

At least now on 20:44 - Oct 3 with 1329 views | londonlisa2001 | Ignoring the bickering between you two Bluey, fair play, you've posted some great stuff today - very sensible and measured and you've gloated a hell of a lot less than most of us would have done if the tables were turned. Take a bow. It's the way our rivalry should be - have a laugh until it actually gets too serious. | | | |
At least now on 20:44 - Oct 3 with 1329 views | mahoss | Like I said,we have Bob,all is well.........! | | | |
At least now on 20:44 - Oct 3 with 1326 views | Dewi1jack | So which one of the snidey b'stards that's fuked over the club, Trust and fans are you then? | |
| If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious. |
