Would be an appointment that would tick the right boxes.

Thread | My take from today.
at 18:02 30 Sep 2023
First and foremost, credit must be given to Duff after such a bad start to turn things around to a point......no coincidence since we went to a back 4!?
Proffesional performance, we went about the job quietly and efficiently.
Cabango outstanding and has been for the last 3 games.
So happy for Mykolo, good header and finished off a good move.
Really hoping this is the sign that Duff has sorted the defence and is now happy to push on with a bit more adventure going forward.
Well done Duff, his backroom and players.....hopefully this is a building of a foundation that can see is push on more. |

Have we had the breakdown on it and numbers given as we were told impeccably that we would?
Only thing I have seen was Cravatt and Coleman part of the Yankee doodle dandy group and Morris by himself as the only part of the information, information that I was told was wrong when I dislodged it and that I should stop making things up.
So any news since the window closed to indicate why all other clubs were kept from knowing our spending power?! 🙈 |

Was pretty crap once again but hopefully it does the confidence good.
When we went 2-0 up the football, passing and control came.......it was dogshiite up to that.
We got away with it in the 10 minute spell from Wednesday in the second half but make no bones about it....Wednesday are dreadful.
Think this was a result more for the confidence. |

Thread | Both goals conceded yesterday
at 11:42 3 Sep 2023
Not the full blame for them but I think it showed up a right footed player not natural to the left side.
1st goal Key was pulled to the ball, naturally pulled into his right foot rather than follow the runner on his left side. It shouldnt have even got to the scenario in the first place with the total fook up between Patino and Grimes......Grimes again making the gap between players too narrow.
The 2nd goal, caught out on his weaker side was Key....i have no doubt a natural left footer would have been better positioned to either stop the cross or make the cross more difficult than it should have been.
My concern is why Naughton wasn't put to left back, a right footer naturally but one with far more experience after playing there in the Premier league and championship for around 15 years and put Key to right back.

Won't pay 1M for Bangura so no progress on that.
Won't pay 2M for Panzo so unlikely to progress on that.
Pederson looks to be on his way for 300k.
The gift that keeps giving.......Swansea City 🙈😂 |

Out and about today and speaking to a few Swansea fans this morning and totally not happy with regards signings and the same old picture with the owners again.
I thought I was being a bit ott with the need of 4/5 players but there was an echo to my feelings from these people.
Plenty of unhappy people who are hoping for what's needed but are expecting "1 or 2 at best" |

Sorry but he is no wing back.
Key to the right, new signing on the left......Ashby covering or being used on the right of a 3 when that formation is used.
Going to say it now, there is a solid player there but I think we might have wasted a loan there. [Post edited 27 Aug 2023 10:36]

No it's not a new formed boy band! 🙈
Davis, supposedly having a medical.
Pato, unless other teams have a change of mind then he is likely to be gone.......had another one of his moments by all accounts.
Panzo, we are very much over this along with a few others....2M and we want a permanent deal. |

I really contemplated after 30mins with walking out but I stayed and it improved.
Can see Duff is trying to implement a solid system based around getting the defence more solid and I can see it happening. I saw a few phases of some decent football and I hope this increases the longer this plan around get a solid base gets stronger.
Ashby, he put a good cross for the equaliser but he is no wing back......if we are going to go forward with wing backs then we need to push on with getting a left wing back with oace or thrust and move Key over to the right side.
Darling needs replacing and I can see the plan with another defender, Cabango central with Wood possibly moving to right side to offer a bit more thrust complimented with a left sided defender of the same ilk.
Midfield is a concern, we need a player in there who has some pace or is prepared to drive forward because we have too many who are too static and we need to break lines from there and it won't happen with the choices we have currently.
It was solid but we lack that va va voom and I still think a back with a solid 2 in midfield and wingers playing off Yates with Piroe dropping off as a 10 is the way forward.
We need that left wing back, left sided centre half and a midfielder with an eye for going forward.
We had that in the team today and I would be writing this with 3 points in the bag
Big up for Cabango, had a rough ride lately but was absolutely solid as todaym |

All over twitter supposedly.
Good player but suprised if he is the Ntcham replacement as he is more of a holding midfielder.
I would say a good quality LWB and we are good to go as long as there are no other major departures.
Ntcham fee will open up a bit more leeway to push on with LWB.

First it was by the side of the pool and burning my belly......its the closest part of me to the sun whilst laying down so no suprise.
I have read the word disjointed and I totally agree.
Rushworth will do well despite the error, you can see he is good and with confidence to go with.
I like Key but he is not a regular LWB, he seems to be a player who could play in a few positions.
Slow first half and then we got into it 2nd but could have easily lost it so a good point all in.
Still a bit to do on the training pitch and a LWB and creative midfielder between now and the window closing.
PS-And of course a striker if Piroe leaves. |

Have to admit that his signing doesn't really make me get excited although this type of signing always has a certain feel that in time we could be calling it a masterstroke.
Something that has caught my attention, Hibs fans seem to rate him and rate him highly. |

Thread | Lee Buchanan and this Ashby guy
at 08:50 29 Jul 2023
This one is spot on
Buchanan fee and all personal were agreed with Werder and Buchanan in his team, Swansea asked if the deal could be finalised towards the end of August and Werder were happy with this......Birmingham came in and matched the fee and terms atleast.
It's all very strange but certainly ties in with the story that Cravatt is putting in and a delay in announcing it.
Ashby, Duff is supposedly looking at playing him as right handed Centre Back. |
