We had earned a lot of money in the Premier league, a lot went on the facilities, but clearly very little on building a scouting network. The resigning of Ayew and Bony for excessive fees and wages, shows how little options we had. |

We were an established Premier league club having been there for 7 seasons. Then the inevitable happened.
Last seasons pro.oted clubs are coming straight back. This seasons promoted teams will be 2 of the relegated clubs |

Realistically there are about 4000 Swansea til i die supporters. Those are the sort that went to the Vetch through the worst periods.
The problem that we are going through is that we have had 7 years of the same division and finishing mid table. We are very mediocre, uninspiring and people are bored of it.
The Championship is probably the most boring division. The teams that come down are invariably the ones that go up. It requires a lot of investment and luck to break into the top 6. Which leaves most teams hovering around mid table for years. |

I think this is the reality. Things used to go on all of the time and no one knew. The parks near me has people sniffing glue in the bushes. We would be out playing in the park and just avoided them. These days you can't drop a dog turd without it causing outrage on Facebook. The local kids just look at someone funny and there are online protests. |

6 Under 16 teams? What has happened to kids these days?
It sounds like it will die off completely within a few years.
It's not like they are replacing it with under age drinking as they don't even do that now. |

I think that there is still a decent amount of organised kids football going on. There is usually a big turn out at pitches for Saturday kids games.
But, you hardly ever see kids having their own games in parks and on pitches now. When I was a kid we would be out with a ball for hours most days. We would walk miles to meet up and play. That never seems to happen anymore.
The seniors games have almost gone as well. Most teams used to have a 2nd and 3rd team. Most struggle to put out 1 side now |

He had been having issues at Southampton before we signed him.
Clearly he believes himself to be a world beater and gets the hump when other people don't see the same thing. Too long starring in Youth setups being hailed as a superstar without being grounded in reality |

If Sheehan is not going to be the manager next season, either through his own choice or the club wanting someone different, then the best option would be to bring their preferred choice in with some games left this season.
Yes, it would be added expense, but it would give them a chance to look at what we have in a competitive environment.
Players can look like workd beaters in training over the summer and be awful on match days. |

Yates is out of contract next summer. I doubt that he would want to come back here.
The best thing to do would be to sell him at any price someone will pay over the summer. |

How can you say that Wilson is ready yo step up?
4 games and 2 assists (both in the same game) at Yeovil in the conference, suggests he will have a career but doesn't mean that he will be ready for the Championship by the summer.
It's a big jump up to being a first team regular 3 divisions above. |

It appears, from another great site report, that the decision had mostly been made the week before and the hold up was due to a death in the family of a major stakeholder.
Williams was axed the day before Montague started so out of his hands.
But, I do agree with you that the connection between the two did not protect Williams.
I was one who thought that it would, but, clearly you were right there |

Assistant manager to the Bob with the US.
Bob has a very lengthy CV of clubs in the US and some in Europe. Still one if our worst managers ever.
March avoided the drop on the last day of the season with Leeds. They started that day bottom.
Was then fired for not being too impressive the next season.
Marsch has a very gpod win ratio, but most of that is from his time in Austria. |

There seems to be a lot of senior managerial figures at the club now.
I understand that it is a multi million pound business, so there are a lot of jobs to do. But, that's a lot of budget being spent on increasing revenues when the number one factor that increases revenues for a football club is on pitch success.
Having people there on big wages to squeeze another drop out of corporate boxes for a club facing relegation is like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. [Post edited 20 Feb 10:49]

He is rated as one if the best young coaches in the world. He .ay not have much management experience but has more coaching experience than anyone else his ages. He is the youngest person to ever gain their UEFA pro badges.
If he can get the best out of what we have got and bring on our youngsters then he is exactly what we are looking for.
4 more wins and we are safe, with Sheehans help I think he would do really well for us.
I'd rather him than another short term fix with someone else just because they've managed in the Championship before |
