Chris Davies 23:42 - Dec 6 with 17995 views | jackrmee | Being reported in many places that he’s a big favourite for the job. I can’t understand why, if he turned it down whilst out of work, would he now take it when he has a very good job, and the Swans job must be less attractive now, as we are sh!t. Doesn’t make any sense to me. I would love him at the club. By far my number 1 choice. Potter second. But if he comes now, it’s surely for extra bread, right? What other reason could there be? | |

I think he’d be foolish to come to Swansea as things currently stand unless he has assurances that there’s going to be significant resources to strengthen the squad in January. The alternative could be he is given a free hand over the next 6 months to work things out and told whatever happens happens and he’s given funds for a major rebuild whichever Division the club is in. If I were Davies, I’d defo speak to Cooper and Martin, sit tight and see what the lay of the land is in the Summer. | | | |

I think we would have to stick with him, right or wrong and that worries me . I would have gone for an old sweat just to keep us up and do the basics right . Then,at end of summer ,reboot. We have to stay up ,surely . | |

Unless there’s an outstanding candidate I’d go down the same route, dig in then regroup in the summer. Look around for a manager who has an ethos, a style of play which will utilise and make the most of the resources at their disposal. I remember reading an article years ago about clubs changing managers and going for new bosses who had different approaches, styles, beliefs etc who then instigated numerous changes to the playing squad, the amount of cash wasted on changes which didn’t work out was unreal, and all to often the new managers were unsuccessful as they didn’t have the right players in place and were caught between the new style dnd the old style. | | | |

Not a surprise. Coleman playing ball with Levy was never going to work. That was if Davies wanted to leave a decent looking project to join a currently very ropey set up. | | | |

Apparently, he held talks, but decided he wouldn't have had enough control of the team | | | |

And the compo plus salary and two assistants he wanted would have cost far more than the club want to spend. | |

All parties would have known this in advance of the talks yesterday though, so I don't think it's that | | | |

Trust me. There were no talks either.

Chris Davies on 18:14 - Dec 16 by Whiterockin | So either a manager is in place who has agreed this or we are dictating to a future manager what staff he can have. I really hope it is the former or this will not end well. |
Wouldn't anybody coming in want someone they know and happy to work with as their no.2 so surely no guarantees can be given in all sincerity. As things get drag out further the better chance Sheenan has to try things that he thinks will work, he has put Key in a position that many fans have suggested and our shape and threat down the right looked a lot better while also negating the wing threat on Saturday that has plagued us all season. Stick or twist? | | | |
Chris Davies on 12:29 - Dec 18 with 1538 views | union_jack | I can’t be bothered to start a new thread and raise expectations but there’s reports in WoL that the club have tentatively sounded out Luke Williams of Notts County. Simple question, why would he? | |

Would be stunned if it happened tbh, why would anyone with any quality come to us when we seemingly have Jason Levien pulling the plug on agreed deals. | | | |

He does not give a flying f@#£ about the fans, if we continue to put up with them the more they will take the p!ss out of us. | | | |

Lets be honest there is a (strong) possibility we could be playing Notts County next season, if we were both in the same division I know who Id rather be managing. | | | |
