Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 16:33 - Aug 6 with 2244 views | onehunglow | The crowd are schtum. It must be painful to see in the flesh. Nobody but nobody should accept this but I understand many will be shocked.Dont be as last season was the same.This is the reality.There js no work in progress,there is no plan. They will soon turn on Martin and those expecting him to be given "support" to do what he wants are kidding themselves. | |

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 16:37 - Aug 6 with 2150 views | DwightYorkeSuperstar | Cardiff have attempted 32 dangerous attacks from their 195 completed passes. We have attempted 4 dangerous attacks from our 515 completed passes. This isn't new. This was routine last season. Nothing has changed. We are not improving. | |

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 16:41 - Aug 6 with 2095 views | Tummer_from_Texas | I don't disagree. The big question is the direction we go immediately after we sack him. I'd hate to have to start over again after we just sacrificed a whole season to build a new system. I only want to get rid of him if we have someone lined up who can work with what Martin was trying to do. | |

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 16:41 - Aug 6 with 2076 views | onehunglow | Why is this thread so quiet. Why are people unable to find the guts to admit what they are seeing is painful and insulting. Why are questions not being asked Why are excuses being made every week We are in deep trouble,let nobody not realise that. Plenty of time to get it right. | |

Clearly the system isn’t working and the players don’t seem to be buying into it. Beginning of the end for him I’d say now. | |

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 16:48 - Aug 6 with 1885 views | onehunglow | No,you wont on here They will be saying how loyal they are always support the lads Right now,they really should not be supporting this. CLEARLY,the crowd is sick,they will not be back leaving the super fans to masage their own egos whilst we insult the memory of many Jacks no longer with us with this insulting crap. Martin has had a honeymoon time .It's over Russ as should his tenure with our proper club. | |

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 16:56 - Aug 6 with 1682 views | onehunglow | Not on this site. What Martin has done is criminal. We have MK Dons as a feeder club We have solid pros like Bennett dumped for what.Wood?Latithe billiere. Last year,we had no preseason,were tired,fixtures too close,and not players he wanted. He s had the lot,he's been given carte blanche and that has been disastrous. Individuals excusing this over the last 9 months haven't helped Get angry people ;we don't deserve this. He is splitting us apart | |

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 17:05 - Aug 6 with 1557 views | union_jack | Yes, on this site. It’s indefensible now. The loss today was not the problem per se, it was the manner of the defeat and the fact that our worst traits last year seem to be still there in abundance. | |

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 17:09 - Aug 6 with 1508 views | LittleEnglandJack | I couldn't watch the game and I certainly think Martin out talk is premature, but it's clear we don't have the players for the system. We play a system that relies heavily on wingbacks to create chances, and don't have any decent ones. I'd normally say that Martin needs to acknowledge this and change the system, but what worries is me that we don't have the players for any other system either. The squad is practically devoid of any pacey, skillful players who run at defenders and can beat a man. If Martin was serious about changing the system to 4 at the back this year, the first priority aside from strengthening at centre half should have been signing some proper wingers. We haven't (yet). Oh to play 4-2-3-1 again... | | | |
Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 17:09 - Aug 6 with 1507 views | raynor94 | Were you at the game today? I was and that performance was shocking even to me, I honestly believed we were in for a good season. Interesting to what he has to say | |

Don't think anyone will be gloating either you really need to move on he is long gone. [Post edited 6 Aug 2022 17:14]

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 17:17 - Aug 6 with 1404 views | onehunglow | NOBODY IS GLOATING When they come on accusing that they are kidding themselves. Martin is shot,found out,rumbled by every manager we play,Lee Bowyer even. Last week,we could have lost against Rotherham,no matter what positive garbage was spouted Longer he stays ,worse it gets. He will get fired,it deends when and what damage he ha done He can take his MK lads with him | |

Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 17:22 - Aug 6 with 1352 views | Scotia | I I honestly think pretty much any manager in the football league would get a better tune out of this group than Martin at the moment. He's got three games for me, and he needs an absolute minimum of 5 points out of them. | | | |
Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread : SATURDAY ! on 17:23 - Aug 6 with 1343 views | DwightYorkeSuperstar | Let's hope he's gone before a Premier League team or other similar level team obtain Benda's signature. We're scarce on saleable assets and it would be disastrous to see arguably our most talented youngster leave for nothing due to a lack of opportunity. | |
