"Staff show support for Martin
Swansea City staff members travelled to Wembley to show their support to former boss Russell Martin. Martin oversaw a 1-0 win for his Southampton side, a victory that made him a Premier League manager for the first time".
This would absolutely infuriate me if I was Coleman. The club is having to sue him to get fair compensation and he has already taken a number of valued backroom staff. Are there concerns over "split loyalties"?

Why would you assume it would be lower paid workers taking a freebie, I sure higher earners would be just as happy to take a handout?  |
That's exactly how the rich stay rich ( in relative of course), by spending other peoples money. |  |

People at higher levels understand free hospitality engenders brand loyalty. In this case it is loyalty to brand Martin. If he has given free tickets to minimum wage people staff then it is probably nothing to be concerned about. The guy that cleaned his car orr took it to the car wash for example. | |

After a long hiatus after going through a spell of mental health problems that a few on here will never understand I feel good enough to post again.
Fvck me some things never change, the Martin haters are out in force just because he decides to invite the friends he made whilst at the club, how very sad, just get a life people and move on.
Btw thanks to all the people on here (you know who you all are ) who have helped me through the roughest time in my life, I will never forget it 😘 |
Good to see you back posting. Very brave if I might say so, being so open on your absence. Hope you are fully recovered & ready to go again. Try not to get too involved with the wind-up merchants & condescending types, we all know who they are |  | | |

Kindly I have no intention of diverting this thread. It is far too important for fans to understand who their real friends are. Out of respect of the good forum I will not take the bait. |
Funny that, you won't divert a thread you yourself started but you have repeatedly hijacked threads other people have started.
Out of respect, yeah right  | | | |

It's been tough but I'm stronger for it. 👍 |  | | |

You have complained and I have acted on your complaints. How can I criticise the Trust after that circa £2000 job they did on the entrance to the Vetch allotment.

Well, everyone gets sacked eventually, the only fixation I see is from people who dislike him. |
Really?
I am not sure the congratulations Russell Martin threads would have been started if Martin had joined the Basseys.
Hope he ploughed some money into your charity as I’d be amazed if your reasons for praising Martin were football related. |  | | |

Always had an open view, you only have to read some the pieces I have personally written. Some were very cutting, but not personal viewpoints on him, but on his tactics etc.
He gave me nothing for the charity, ever.
What people can do is donate to the brain tumour charity of their own volition.
That way I can’t be accused of being biased, bit of a low baller that. |  |

Not at all.
As I am sure you are aware I have donated to your very special charity (which is also close to my heart)
I can’t believe people believe Martin did a good job for Swansea | | | |

Proof would have been if he had the conviction to stick with his principles and honoured his contract, not many of the supporters would have offered him a new contract after the first two years but may have been happy to let him prove his tactics in the third year and the club could have given him an extension in the third year of his contract if things carried on improving from the end of his second season run. | | | |

I think he was giving them to his mates, not as charity |  |

It is called " Networking" notionally hospitality from brand Martin via Southampton football club. As Coleman would tell you " there is no free lunch".
If it was his driver or the cleaners it would be honourable and good. A gesture of kindness and well reviewed. I would not see this as charity at all simply a gift for " going the extra mile" where previously unrewarded. | |

If he were giving them to cleaners and the lowest staff, because they can’t afford it, it’s more like charity.
If he were giving them to cleaners because they were his closest friends whilst here, that’s totally different. | |

Of course he knows them. He knows them all. He gets 20 tickets does he give them to football people or ordinary workers.?
One is networking one is a gift for staff that treated him well. Neither is charity. | |
