The club has seriously been eroded away. The boardroom shite is rearing its ugly head

And having 3-4 transfer windows where you sell off your best players only to bring in squad reinforcements. If first team players aren't bought in January it's relegation for sure

Then supporters appeared unhappy at players who failed to acknowledge their arduous journey to the north-east after the game.

Wales defender Neil Taylor and Swans full-back colleague Rangel seemed to be the only Swansea players to go over to the travelling Jack Army.

Some supporters had moved to the bottom row of the stand they were in and clearly wanted more Swansea players to come over, yet many disappeared without even lifting an arm to applaud.

Looks like favorites to take over are

Giggs
Paul Clement
Gary Rowett
Harry Redknapp

I'd go for Clement or Rowett. Giggs was deemed less qualified than Bradley in October so don't know what has chenged there. Harry has a history of being relegated despite spending big money. The other two have done well in the championship on small budgets and got fired due to shitty boardroom situations.

Paul Clement hasn't been offered the job......as head coach not manager. Seriously, Huw, GTFO of the club now

Rowett would be a solid hire.

Agreed but I don't know if it matters if Huw keeps control of all the transfers.

Mawson was my MOTM today. Great goal, great in defense and had some great passes all game

Taylor was again fricking terrible but thankfully he was so bad Rangel came on and scored the winner.

Fer off the bench was a beast. Maybe that's how he's best used

Tough run of games coming up again

Yeah I like Mawson. He had a sick pass to routledge in the box. Routledge then fricked it up like the shite player he is.

Taylor fractured his cheek bone in training this morning. Time out TBD. The player who did it should come public with it because he would drink for free in Wales for a while

Luciano Narsingh in for his medical right now. Hopefulyl he provides that much needed end product from the wing for £4m

Martin Olsson incoming from Norwich for £5m. Should be able to slot right in at LB

Claude Makélélé joins the coaching staff

Clement put the brakes on an £8M move for Tom Carroll thank god. Good to see we don't have a yes man anymore and someone who will tell Huw that the deal sucks. This move just shows again how Huw has lost his grip on the transfer market.
