Colemans business acumen 16:33 - Jan 26 with 878 viewsshaggyrogers

The guy has made money but not from building and running businesses that employ 100's of people. His family ran a small hotel in Washington from what i have found out and he then made his money from arranging finance etc for hotel acquisitions. He is absolutely out of his depth when it comes to running a business of our size especially in football. He brought in Kenny boy to try and deal with the every day stuff but the UK is a different animal to the US. For starters our employment laws will cause him problems.

To think Coleman now is looking after player recruitment is frightening and fills me with utter dread. The club is rudderless yet these 2 think they the know what they are doing. They don't and we are in the cack big time

Football business is like no other business, unless you have unlimited wealth you need to be very in tune with the game to succeed.
I agree 100% with you regarding Coleman and transfers. He is either naive or arrogant to think he can do everything, whichever it is, I hope he is very lucky and unearths a couple of gems to keep us up

Martin Hodge is head of player recruitment as far as I know

You give it out, you take it back it`s all part of the game
Poll: Happy to see Martin go

If he is smart he will adapt and learn. If he is not smart then Swansea could end up in big problems. Smart people can learn fast

People on here call Jenkins lucky and Dinneen a fool. They g had little experience but proved themselves very shrewd indeed.

It only ended after a trophy and 15 long years. Swansea did marvellous transfer work with the guidance of good strong managers like Martinez Brendan and Laudrup. When weaker managers accepted poor players problems started.

Coleman needs to appoint a Guidolin type manager who has done it all and wants a crack at UK football. He will guide the club away from pitfalls and dubious agents.

Wise sage since Toshack era
Poll: Will Cabango and Darling sign new contracts?

Don't focus on Jenkins and Dineen. The real power was with Martin M.

Who was it who made Coleman chairman, Kaplan and Levien may be gone but their legacy will be here for a while.

Along with £30-40m. The club is in a reasonable place with a decent manager.

If Coleman is micromanaging it means he does not trust his staff. If Gude is about business culture they may be looking to make a step change.

I have never heard a manage admit he "lost motivation for a while" (Martin) or a manager admit HIS team "lost the will to compete". (Williams). An extraordinary admission. So why no change in the on field manager. (Grimes)

If motivation is a problem then drastic action is required and selling Abdullai is not it.

As far as chairman of the club is concerned he is giving the impression of being out of his depth standing in a puddle.
