  1. And Taylor joins in allowing Windass to sneak in to score the winner.....
  2. You know what, I wouldn't be surprised if she writes a very pro Keegan piece now
  3. I'd say a mass demonstration before the game outside SJP or everyone gets in early and holds it inside. Then another mass demonstration after the game. I know talksport are covering the game live, I would take a stab at Five Live doing so too so a vocal demonstration is important if you want to cover that media. Even a half time protest - no-one leaving their seats just 15 minutes of pure demonstration. During the game itself though I'd vote for getting 100% behind the 11 players on the pitch. Show everyone where the frustrations lie.
  4. He's a bit of a legend and hero down here to boot. He will manage (and do a good job) in either the Premier League or La Liga in the near future. I suppose alot will write him off being a "lower league" manager. But he has done a top notch job. According to the talk down here in Swansea he has very good contacts in Spain as well, hence why he has been able to bring in very good players from Spain. He is a very intelligent Manager but as I said I just can't see him being anyones puppet. For him to leave the Liberty Stadium I think it would have to be an attractive offer, and Newcastle doesn't look very attractive at the moment. Are you 'in' Swansea or around it? Live near Llanelli myself

  6. Just saw the worst penalty ever in the Scotland Slovenia U21 game. Lucky Scotland were 3-1 up and it was the 90th minute
  7. The only thing Keegan has been doing over the last few days is making sure he isn't out of pocket by leaving. He's managed to persuade the club to pay him all his wages despite resigning has he? Do me a favour, go and take a walk on the highway with your eye's closed. It's been well documented that he'd have to pay the club compensation if he walked out, you can bet he's been negotiating his way out of it. Anyway, I've seen your post about not supporting the club anymore so it was nice knowing you, people like yourself won't be missed. Still think your DOF bollocks works ? Yes, just not with bottlers like Keegan. we'd better get David Gill or someone at ManU buying players above Alex Fergusons head then . See what he does. Man Utd is the perfect structure imo. Fergie employs coaches, physios, nutritionalists etc. He takes no active part in training but directs tactics etc which are implemented by his coaches. He is then involved in identifying talent at all ages the lets Gill et al do the negotiating. Fergie becomes invovled to seal the deal only or where it is a massive signing to show the intent of the club. He also gets involved in which kids are retained by the academy.
  8. I'm totally convinced its this guy. Jiminez got Ramos to leave Sevilla for Spurs and will have little problems coaxing a guy from the Spanish second division to a Premier League team. Half our team are now Spanish speaking and he'll have support from the unholy trinity- something i think KK never had. Just this summer didn't he say that he wouldn't leave Spain until his son finishes school
  9. They can fuck right off with that shite as well! We don't want, nor do we need a shitty director of football when we had someone perfectly capable of signing his own players and creating a good team ffs. You know what, for all his faults at least Freddy faced the media when he got rid of managers
  10. I've posted before that my boss knows Ashleys chief purchaser for Sports Direct. Now he's left, but I'm seeing him tomorrow. Any messages to pass on? I'm passing a note simply saying. 'Do the decent thing, sell up now'. I'm still supportive of the way he wanted the club to go in, but he's fucked it all up and lost the 2 most important assets the club has/had. Keegan and the fans
  11. Tried posting that myself. Young, growing reputation, great in the transfer market at his current level (relevant?) and Swansea play the right way
  12. From what KK said it seems that the new boys didn't come to play for Keegan
  13. Ahhh fuck it. After today Come on you Indians!!
  14. Or the DOF picks the manager. Would you be happy with Wise picking our next manager. Yes, between him and Jimenez I think they would come up with a bright young manager, Jimenez was the one who took Ramos to Spurs after all. When you get past the hate people have against Wise from his playing days, his opinion on a potential manager would be worth more than that of someone who sells cut price clothing, a casino manager or a scrap man. who is the scrap man ? Fred
  15. You will have to go a long way back to find the last training session Ferguson took at Man Utd. Thats why we have coaches
  16. Some papers are saying he is in the United States but they may well be stirring trouble again Holiday Barbados or States business, take your pick. I'll have the holiday thanks. When do I fly? Yesterday. God, Barbados looks a lot like East Manchester today

  18. And the nature of the buck this summer was a difficult one The lads he's brought in seem on first impressions to be just what we needed and have been delivered at a low cost - therefore well played Goggly Eyes. But I think most people would have liked to have seen a couple more bodies through the door - black mark Wisey. The player sales have all made sense imo, and only Milner would have been likely to see significant playing time this season. However, I do believe that players out of the door should always be down to the manager as he is the one who sees them day in and day out.
  19. Back to 4-3-1-2 for me. Given Beye - Colo - Taylor - Enrique/Zoggy (depending on the opposition) Jonas - Guthrie/Barton - Gonzales Owen X.I.S.C.O - Martins (was it Mick Martin who was known as Zico Martin btw?)
  20. O'Leary would do quite well at the dark place. He was doing ok at Leeds on a cheque book before the likes of Woodgate and Kewell becam perma crocks. Not as good as Keane, but he wouldn't be a massive step back for them
  21. There's a couple of major business problems with this theory: 1 - Its not the manager's money. 2 - The manager doesn't have the time to dedicate to scouting. 3 - Managers get invested in their own selections ... the new guy wants his own players in ... resulting in a clear out & total loss of value. 3 - You have to be able say NO if the player valuation is not right ... consider that our current admin. team may be having discipline in this area which has rarely been a feature of our recent spending. Bingo - we have a winner. Probably not what people want to read though so best ignore. Missed one problem. If the manager picks his team of Wise etc then there is a temptation to get a yes man - think Mick Wadsworth. I'm a big believer in healthy conflict, as long as it is a fair and open forum where nothing personal gets in the way of a good decision being reached. Everyone needs questioned, and this often brings the best results out of people.
