Dave Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 The concept of a manager building anything at a club outside the current six clubs at the top is laughably obselete nowadays. Too much money at stake so virtually every manager is brought in to 'save' a season, then is inevitably moved on within two years after the new manager bounce has worn off. That's not to say the Clement sacking is incorrect, I don't know enough about them to comment but overall it's shite really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 The likes of Moyes, Big Sam and Pardew et al can positively influence an upsurge in results when taking over a club, but I dare say that's because of a new manager bounce rather than their capabilities or lack of as managers. Once their ways are embedded into their respective clubs it never takes too long to turn to shit and that's because, well, they are shit managers. I guarantee next season the fans of Everton, West Ham and WBA will be dreading match day and wanting their managers replaced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not to say the Clement sacking is incorrect, I don't know enough about them to comment but overall it's s**** really. For almost every club outside of the top 6 and those with some ambition its literally all about staying up because relegation is almost like the end of the world when it comes to money. The moment a club starts losing games and falls below the top 10/15 places its trigger happy time and what they then do is look at managers who can keep them up. Moyes, Big Sam, Pardew et al come in and keep a club up, but because they are crap, those clubs go backwards... then its trigger happy time again. Of all the clubs over the last few years who are really mid-table kind of clubs, I think Leicester have been the bravest, them and Southampton. I could never see them appointing a Big Sam or a Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy84 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Not arsed in the slightest, it’s December and we have 20 games left and a January window ahead. If we can’t get our own house in order and collect the points we’ll deserve to go down. Nothing to do with Swansea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess Pearson was Championship but Leicester seemed happy to appoint Shakespeare Pearson had a canny enough spell at various clubs at that level at the time and they were kind of brave to sack him when they did given how they stayed up. Shakespeare was a bold move too, unproven and promoted from within. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Hughes one game away apparently. Another reason to hope they beat West Brom - keeps him there a bit, keeps WBA below us, beats Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 They are obviously looking for another Monk, makes you wonder why they didn't just stick with him in the first place. Know absolutely nothing about Britton in regard to his coaching ability, limited footballer, think they've made a mistake in not going for Pulis though, the football would have been horrendous but his track record would suggest he would have gotten them out of it. This is a huge gamble for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I live in Swansea, and a fair few people actually want to give Britton the job full time, and he knows the club and "the Swansea way". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like hippo head saying he was retired and wouldn't come back to save another club that's failing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
