Michael Laudrup came in. Possibly our greatest ever Manager. |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

If he was odd then give us odd every day of the week. Historically our greatest (in terms of silverware). I still can’t believe we won the league cup |  |

I'm sure he'd have changed if he knew he was too laid back for you. | | | |

Certainly gave us the greatest season in my time as a fan. Shame he lost interest when he didn’t get what he wanted the following summer. |  | | |

That first 45 mins v WBA not many teams would have lived with us that night. That and the Valencia away game stick long in the memory. Oh and that Arsenal away game too with Michu. |  |

Well, we can blame the likes of the sneaky few led by a ginger bloke for that. |  |

Think for me it was always a case of what could have been.
Although a few of his former clubs have probably said the same thing.
When laudrups team was on form we were a match for anyone. |  |

There’s probably two sides to that. While I don’t doubt there was some kind of mutiny, or that Monk benefitted exponentially, Laudrups unremarkable managerial career and number of clubs he’s worked at don’t look great.
No argument though, that season was incredible. | | | |

I'd put Martinez as the greatest (too young for Toshack), but certainly Laudrup put the finishing pieces in place and produced our finest ever team. I believe he could have evolved the team and taking us further as well with the right backing.
Shameful the way he was treated.
That West Brom game was the pinnacle for me, I watched it in a pub but couldn't stop myself from standing up and applauding spontaneously throughout. Perfect football. |  |

Certainly our coolest manager, a world class player himself with both Top Trumps player pulling power and swagger.
Total football. European style football.
And now we have unknown after unknown basically having a go.
Only Huw can say for sure if Monk deliberately caused problems.
Certainly the timing looks spot on ... ?
And all cos Michael played Ki vs Bradford. |  |

Although having a regular training session where the players tried to hit the crossbar (on penalty of having to drive in an embarrassing car) was a little bit strange. As I remember they were fairly good at hitting the crossbar already. But yes, not letting him be the manager for the match in Naples was just petty and vindictive. We were coming up to a break and he deserved that.
How old is he now and what's he doing? Can't be arsed to look up Wikipedia and you all probably know better anyway.
UPDATE: OK, his 56th birthday was yesterday, and he's a millionaire not involved in football. I'd settle for that. [Post edited 16 Jun 2020 0:39]

Agree.
Martinez started it all with his passing football.
Before he came we had Kenny Jacket. Lump the ball up to Rory Fallon for him to flick on, usually to no one.
Laudrup refined it but Martinez started it. |  | | |

Indeed. Our best manager ever. The whole situation was hideously mishandled by Jenkins. The first of many decisions that started his decline to villainy. [Post edited 16 Jun 2020 6:57]

We were known as a passing team when Cliff Jones played for us...
Martinez was great for us but Laudrup refined Brenda’s style, not Bobbeh’s. |  | | |

As good as that Laudrup team was there is only one winner when it comes to our best ever manager...Tosh.
What he did at the club by taking us through the divisions and coming close to winning the top flight, in my humble opinion, will never be repeated. |  | | |

Certainly a day Jinx showed his true colours in the cowardly way he sacked someone who achieved so much for us.
Wasn’t the first, nor last manager to be treated shabbily
We have had some great managers and some great times, which should live in our hearts for ever.
Belated happy birthday to our centenary manager. [Post edited 16 Jun 2020 10:03]
