Rate your Swansea managers... 12:08 - Oct 31 with 4363 views | Starsky | Your mission... Rate them from 1 to 10. What you must take into consideration: 1: they must be rated as what impact they've had with our club, astute signings etc... NOT who you like the best. 2: you can take their Swans playing days into your decision as well as their managerial efforts. Garry Monk Michael Laudrup Brendan Rodgers Paulo Sousa Roberto Martinez Kenny Jackett Brian Flynn John Toshack Harry Griffiths Frankie Burrows Off you go. [Post edited 31 Oct 2014 14:01]

Rate your Swansea managers... on 00:46 - Nov 1 by TNT | Ok Starsk, 1. John Toshack 2. Roberto Martinez 3. Brendan Rodgers 4. Frankie Burrows 5. Brian Flynn 6. Michael Laudrup 7. Garry Monk I struggle to put Paulo Sousa and Kenny Jackett in there, because I didn't enjoy watching us under them. John Hollins, gets no mention at all, yet was no worse and got us promoted. See you at Everton, Enjoy! |
TNT... Thanks for response but you can't list Laudrup that low, lol. | |

Roberto gave us a blue print for modern stylish football that has served us so well. Flynn brought in Lee Trundle - and on that basis alone is our greatest and shortest manager. Harry Griffiths and mad Frankie - legends both. | |

Rate your Swansea managers... on 21:55 - Oct 31 by TNT | Any sentence incorporating the name Appleton shall instantly turn this thread on its head, thus becoming a list of worst managers. Surely he and Cullis would appear in everybody's top two? I'm still working on the original post, Starsk. Lots of rubbing out / pencil arrows / pros & cons etc. If I crack it, I'll post it! Now, Harry Griffiths was my first manager see, but ... ...oh, there I go again! |
Appleton wouldn't be anywhere near my top two worst managers. In no particular order, but all of the following were worse (as managers) IMO : - 1) Kevin Cullis 2) Terry Yorath 3) Mickey Adams 4) Nick Cusack 5) Roy Bentley 6) Les Chappell 7) Alan Cork 8) Kevin Nugent 9) Alan Curtis 10) Doug Livermore 11) Jimmy Rimmer ....and that's only the ones since I started watching The Swana in 1970 | | | |

Terry Yorath and Roy Bentley both achieved promotion managing the Swans, yet John Bond and Harry Gregg get off Scott free. You haven't thought this through. | |

Rate your Swansea managers... on 14:47 - Nov 1 with 929 views | ShakinPyramid | I certainly have thought it through. I have a personal hatred of Terry Yorath, never having forgiven him for missing the penalty against Yugoslavia in 1976. He was captain and decided that he should go for glory and take a penalty when Tosh was the far better option. I will admit to be irrational but have spent years and years thinking through about his inclusion on this list. Harry Gregg did more with a poor squad than Bentley and if you look at development of young players, he was streets ahead. John Bond was a fantastic manager, proven long before he arrived at The Vetch. The circumstances under which he had to manage us at that time, with bankruptcy on the horizon were impossible. You cannot blame any manager for that. Even Clough or Shankly or Mourinho would have struggled. | | | |
