Reply | Luke Williams : The Swans just need to stop making the same old cheap mistakes

This is going to be a big ask of Coleman or anyone with little to no knowledge of how to run a professional sports organisation. With little or no experience of actually doing any role within such an organisation previously
He will need to balance the books & be expected to deliver success on & off the field. It appears that he is actually at ground zero, with absolutely no structure put in place by the previous administration after 8 years in charge. He is seemingly unwilling or unable to build an organisation or able to identify the skills of people to do it with him. A clear case of trial & error so far. Things are likely to get worse before they start to improve.
Based on his actions ( and words) how can anyone be convinced that he is the right man for the job ? |

Is that the Rob Edwards who got Luton relegated from the EPL & took them to the relegation places in the Championship ? The same guy who thought they were the better side against us over Xmas ? No thanks |

Well deserved in the end … Sunderland hanging on all second half, lacking quality but a young squad |

Probably could have included Cooper & his England juniors connections Guehi, Gallagher, Brewster.
Potter never really had any connections with clubs in this country as he had been making a name for himself in Sweden. Hence signings made in his time were poor to say the least
Martin lacked connections unless you believe that Darling & Fisher to be big successes, though the one that got away (O’Riley) would have been the pick of the bunch.
As for Luke & the Notts Co guy possibly on the way - their pedigree is lower & non league connections with the likes of Notts Co, Swindon etc |

Really struggling to understand the club direction of appointments with people with poor or lower leagues connections in the game. Bringing in coaches from lower leagues, appointing people without pedigree or know how seems to be all financially driven, a gamble, bargain basement types
Success in our history has always been about appointing people with pedigree, knowhow, people with connections to attract the right types of player:
Toshack - with his Liverpool connections
Flynn & Jackett - experience at lower league levels
Brendan - Chelsea, Watford, Reading connections
Laudrup - the Spanish market
Martinez - Spanish & Scottish league connections
We now seem tied to having a manger & recruitment specialist based on their knowledge of working in the lower leagues. Baffling |

Making an offer at the end of the transfer window … stupid strategy especially when we don’t have the people to carry it out effectively |

Unfortunately his time was up before he came back to us. Ridiculous decision to bring him back. A terrific player at his peak, if only Huw hadn’t hesitated when he was no longer a part of Klopp’s plans. Wasted at Stoke City |

Not sure if he is to blame or not … whatever his job was it’s a a total 100% shambles with or without him. What exactly has he achieved in his time at the club ? |

Most clubs have managed to get multiple players in - I read that Luton has brought in 8 players - there is only one place that Andrew Coleman needs to look for this shambles, the mirror |

Yes - but Swansea City AFC is an organisation that is in a battle to attract will want to players, customers, coaches, youngsters etc etc, Matt Grimes is an individual footballer who will be forgotten about very quickly
A few well chosen words wouldn’t have gone amiss |

One of the weakest squads - yes
Weakest striking options- definitely
Grimes replaceable- yes but his replacement should have been In place
One of the poorest coaches in the league
Current ownership doing nothing different to the recently departed
Maybe the performances against QPR & Luton were the exception and all performances since are closer to the norm ?
Good enough to stay up ? Hmmm - looks like we will need the rapidly eroding points buffer but it is too close for comfort to be confident. We need another 14-16 points from somewhere |
