That's It 16:49 - Aug 20 with 2127 views

I've not been anti-RM at all (up until now) but the time has come for him to go. The football is as boring as the Sousa days but at least he built it on a foundation of a solid defence with a view of nicking a 1-0 win. I have no idea what RM is trying to do other than just keep hold of the ball.

If the Swans hierarchy are worried about the cost of sacking/replacing then fear not... I'll do the job for absolutely free and guarantee I'd get more out of the players that what he's getting at the moment.

Absolutely shocking.

I was anti Martin after the Blackburn game.

Is there anyone still pro him then?

Win our next game and his Flock will return.

I'm not so much pro-Martin but I'm also not pro hysteria.

It's still August, too soon to throw the dice.

FA Cup or Premier League

This is where I am. Never believed in sacking managers willy nilly. But it’s becoming increasingly clear that he and his players are just not learning from their mistakes. You are never ever going to get success playing walking football.

The end of last season didn’t end well either.

I know in the championship anyone can beat anyone but I thought we had a relatively easy run of games at the start of this season.

We have far better players than where we are.

So in the scenario he does get sacked, its either get a free agent or pinch someone elses manager.

The usual suspects that are free agents at the moment -

Dyche
Allardyce
Bielsa
Woodgate
Mowbray
Monk (!!)
Pardew
Bowyer
Adkins
Holloway

Bielsa would be the only one for me there and I don't think thats realistic..

Promising coaches already in jobs that potentially could be attracted -

C Toshack (Leeds assistant)
K Mckenna (Ipswich)
Matt Taylor (Exeter)

It's slim pickings really.

We actually would be better off without anyone frankly as the players would sort matters out themselves.I feel Martin is killing them and there is a perfect example in Piroe.

It might be August but already, after a full pre season and his own players in we’re worse than last season.

The players look unfit and bewildered and there’s no creative spark or pace in the side. We were easily beaten but Luton today and easily beaten by Blackburn.

He has loaded us with center halves and we have no decent full backs. That alone is reason enough for me.

We (Swans Polska) are coming over to attend the overseas supporters convention at the stadium in October. We are flying over for the Watford away game, staying there then travelling to Swansea for the weekend convention and the Sunderland game. With travel, hotels, tickets etc this will likely cost us around a grand each We are happy with this as we are committed fans. (maybe we should be ðŸ˜). I just wish we could see the same committment from the manager and the team. Hope to see you all in October. Hopefully RM will be gone or we might be the only ones at the conventionðŸ˜€

So disappointing today after Tuesday when I thought we played some very good football which, today, was nowhere to be seen.

Or that Martin shouldn't be putting square pegs in round holes.

He should play 442 until we get round pegs for those round holes.

Exactly mate, not sure why he can't see this.

No.. were were inconsistent last year... This year we are currently consistently poor (although I appreciate it's early days).

We've gone backwards over the last 6 months. One win in every 3/4 games is not going to cut it unfortunately.
