So, contrary to popular opinion, the Swans haven't been sitting twiddling their thumbs during Southampton's attempt to screw us out of about £750k and have actually been quite proactive in making sure that our gap between managers is as small as possible.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

How new Swansea City manager Michael Duff has become hot property 23rd Jun 2023 09:32
New Swansea City manager Michael Duff is renowned for a pretty rigid 3-5-2 formation, and that has served him well since he made his first steps in to management. At Cheltenham and then Barnsley the vast majority of his games were centred around this preferred strategic choice. However, it really isn’t as simple as that. 0

Love this paragraph:

"It’s clear Swansea fans won’t see the patient build up play that Russell Martin favoured, but they will see more endeavour,chasing down and dynamic switching of tactics to exploit the opposition. These were areas that Martin very often failed to implement, be that by choice or an inability to see what needed to change in a game."

I don't think I could be any more excited or positive about an appointment. A managerial upgrade and we've drawn money as well?
If we can hang on to Matty and Jay this season could be a cracker.

Their personal circumstances would be the reason why they stay, but Paul Watson will already have loads of work done, that I do know.

Well difficult to say just yet, hopefully he'll have more substance than our previous incumbent ,reading his resuma although not vastly experienced he learned a portion of his trade under Dyche, a manager I do respect

They are business people, and they know their trade in business which changes little whether it’s recycling rubbish or football ( not dissimilar ) 😂 They have kept a level head even when the pressure was extreme.

If anyone thinks the likes of Silverstein or the new investment group put millions in to a venture just for fun then they are welcome to that opinion, but it’s nonsense.

I can assure anyone who cares to listen, Cardiff would love to be in our situation.

Sounds promising, much better than the snooze fest we've seen for most of the last 2 seasons, be more enjoyable for the players as well I expect.

Welcome Michael Duff, and Good Luck!

The owners need to realise that you don't get league points for winning stand offs with other clubs. Sometimes you need to compromise and do it quickly to progress on and off the pitch. By all means don't be a push over, but there has to be a balance.

Well said Keith, unfortunately many of our fan base do not appreciate this.....The Americans interest is purely a business transaction unlike our previous ownership who were fans ....the days of the likes of Struel,Dougie Sharpe and the "sellouts" are long gone.....most club ownership is not as engaged with the clubs as the like of those and therefore decisions are mainly made with pure fiscal reasoning but as you say folks are welcome to their opinion but "tightwads" they are not.

As I posted elsewhere how do folks feel about all the season ticket holders puttin in about £3K then at the clubs last financial year have to shell out around £1K each to keep us afloat?

The previous ownership were not all fans. Two were 'venture capitalists ' a Frenchman and a South African. Another was more interested in rugby. All were happy to sell their shares and make profits except the Trust.
