As usual no rational arguement just insult

I have never pined for Steve....but our current manager is not performing to the point loan players are jumping ship before he ruins their careers!

Insult 😳

Mostly every time you post about martin you refer to the last two seasons, not rocket science is it 🤷

And I don't offer my opinion because I will be wasting my time, people have opinions and never change them, no matter what.

The problem we have is there are quite a few fans who think that our rightful place is the PL, there lies the problem.

I certainly dont believe we have a right to be in the PL been around far too long for that

I want to see good football and us competing and winning games

Easy cop put that reply...my opinion on Martin is based on data and fact ....I researched him when he was appointed to date the opinion I formed on that data has not changed given what I have seen from him thus far...

SO whats your problem apart from believing you are some sort of super fan?

When Laird first arrived, he was eager to attack as much as possible. He would frequently (and often successfully) attempt to dribble past full backs and put crosses into the box.

The fact that he no longer takes as many risks in his game as the season has progressed is perhaps an indication that he has been instructed to play "safer". Russell Martin praising our possession statistics in the press every other week throws credibility to that line of thought.

Either he doesn't like the city; Laird feels his development is being restricted here; or Manchester United feel his development is being restricted here.

Regardless, it does not reflect well on Swansea City.

For me the turning point with him was the Reading game.
He started playing as he had before & was running at the left back trying to dribble past him, the only problem was that the Reading player (can't remember his name) was too good for him & kept stopping him/taking the ball off him.
The confidence looked to drain out of him, by the end of the game he'd stopped trying to beat him & hasn't been the same player since.

Kind of agree with that, never seen someone lose so much confidence so quickly in that game.

Not as many as you think
You never respond to dwight ac or me and its because you cant discuss matters.

At least give an opinion before you rip.I do.

I asked you via builth to fix me a parking spot for Preston and you refused point blank. Pitifully childish .

You need to look in the glass.

Hopefully the moderators decide to do something about your constant abuse and admitted trolling. I don't care who you decide is a "proper loyal swans fan" tbh. Get over yourself.

Naughton will have to go there in the short term I guess.

At least we have a chance to have some real natural CB’s in their correct position now. Could be a blessing in disguise.

Harassment is precisely what it is. Enough to discourage some excellent posters from posting I'm sure.

Hardly the role model for the swathe of new Young jacks on here from mid Wales.

I agree we should still be in the EPL.
The fault that we're not lies firmly at the feet of our previous owners and their incredible incompetence.
And having the likes of Brad Bobbley here and the other Clouseau type mamaners we endured didn't help. Brought in because of or by incompetent owners

But that relegation is in the past and we can't change it.
Trouble is, we were spoilt.
The older fans who've seen us at the bottom table, top table, bottom and top again realise that.

My worry is that if RM is being seen as a fraud, then we're not going to get decent loan players in.
I don't think we can develop enough of our own players who are up to the grade.
And if we're forced to develop our own, then we may actually find there is an area lower than the bottom table we've been lucky to stay in

If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious.

I’m afraid he already has. It’s why the likes of Lee Bowyer stick one over on him.

Martin s a nonentity, and far worse than Bobby B who was dumped early. Bob didn’t damage us,Martin is and will.
