No good if there’s no end product.

The words, all fart no shite spring to mind…..

Poll: Would you take going down to League 1 if it meant new owners coming in?

Ankerson seems to have decided that possession is his new key statistic. So he plugs it in to his computer and up pops Russel Martin. Why bother interviewing Graham Potter when Ankerson has all the statistics to hand?

If you didn't enjoy all our pointless sideways and backwards passing this year then don't renew your season ticket just yet.

For statistic, read “reference point”…..

Swansea were in the top 6 for shots on goal, in fairness….

at the end of the day we are just paying customers. It is the owners who get to decide who to hire and fire.

You would not expect to tell the Asda CEO how to run the business

So Long and Thanks for all the Fish

Not the same. If I don't like Asda, I go to Tesco.

You can see from those stats how distinctive the Russel Martin style is. For example, Swansea were top of the league for total touches, but they were bottom of the league for total "take-ons" i.e. attempts to beat a player. In other words, never attempt to dribble past a defender, just keep recycling possession. I suspect Mr Martin will be shocked at how poor some of our passing is. One things for sure, if Martin signs then dribblers like Moussa have played their last game for Saints.

And in a similar context, it's the customers who get to decide if they want to pay for this nonsense anymore.

Or not.

Listen to your support and take notice. Or prepare to go under.

I can't recall seeing a Diallo pass that didn't go to the opposition.

And they were 4th for most goals conceded.

The average league position achieved by Russell Martin's teams in his managerial career in League One and the Championship is 14th.
