Hollins: Parlez-vous Français?

Last night the Swans travelled to Newport to take on County and came away at the end of the game on the wrong end of a 2-1 defeat. That in itself, isn't too worrying from a pre-season game but other events are not so clever.
First off pre-game. Mike Kent reported on www.scfc.co.uk that he saw Matthew Bound leaving the ground pre-game in his kit and not looking the happiest of bunnies. Now we know that Matt and JH had a falling out last season, the last thing that we need is for Hollins to start falling out with players, especially his more senior players.
Secondly, one of the team today described last night's game using the following words. "It was going well in the first half and we looked good and then the muppet went and changed everything" Sidibe and Arranz apart, the same player described the rest of the triallists as useless and even Mazzina got the thumbs down for his performance last night.
But, in the best tradition of saving the best till last, we have John Hollins walking into the dressing room pre-game with his French phrase book in his hand. From what I have heard Hollins pre-match team talks are not the clearest at the best of times but this is a classic. I hope he can read it clearly otherwise he will be asking some of his foreign imports "Can you tell me where the railway station is" or "I would like two bottles of red wine please"
Things are not looking good at Swansea City and, take the result out of the equation, there appears to be some unrest at the football club and I, for one, am worried by that fact. Should you be too?
