I didn't bother because I have the fraud on ignore, I could have taken him off ignore, voted and put him straight back, but I refuse to feed the troll. |  | |  |

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

nail head hit it seems only the opinion of those that attend away games matters as I have said I take my hat off to those that put in the hard miles.....and they do as they will always support the team no matter what.....FB is right it's about supporting the team not a manager.....I'm not able to travel away but I still go to home games to support the team but that doesn't mean I'm happy with the current situation and the lack of progress over the time Martin has been here |  |

The majority of Jacks don’t bother going to the game either. What’s your point? Forums are a place where both attendees and non attendees reside. |  |

Why would a thread be shut down because some have me on ignore, that makes no sense. Threads are shut down because I prove my point better than most to the point the weak have to block themselves from seeing it. I would say maybe 4 posters have me on ignore, each one still talking about me as much as they did before. Spoken by the poster of the year, voted by the very forum we speak of. As you were.

Fireman has a point . It’s why the positive drivel on here does not represent how majority fans feel. |  |

| Swansea City v Bristol City : FA Cup replay on 22:07 - Jan 16 by Fireboy2 | I suspect most people I will meet on Saturday will not be unhappy with Martin, ateotd they like myself go to watch the team not the manager. [Post edited 16 Jan 2023 22:11]

I believe a lot of people (myself included) will follow the Swans home & away but at this present time are not happy with the manager. I really do not think Martin is getting the best out of this squad & the football bores me but of course I will still go to watch the Swans. Still hopeful he can turn it around but anything less than a top 6 finish I believe he should be relieved of his duties. |  | |  |

I think it’s abundantly clear that it’s not a noisy minority that aren’t happy with the manager. Whether people at a game sing his name now and again doesn’t affect that, when people are at a game they are pumped up. We have sang BoB Bradley’s name and I’m sure if you asked people at that Palace game if they were happy, many would say yes. However in the cold light of day when people have time to reflect away from all the noise at the game and influence of their mates - that’s where you get to hear their real views. That’s why these forums are excellent as they represent everyone. |  |

Whether at home or there in person you see exactly the same thing. I can’t believe how many people - and it would surprise me if it’s a majority - think Martin is up to the job. He’s not. We’ve gone nowhere in 2 years being fed the same fare week in week out and the same drivel coming in post match interviews. He doesn’t learn even when his mistakes are obvious. This positivity thing is ridiculous. Given what we’ve seen since he’s been here, how can anyone be positive about the next game? You can tell yourself what you want but to be really positive, you have to believe it. |  |

Top 6? That's quite a high standard you have there, we could finish 4th or we could finish 16th, ita that tight, all depends on what happens in the next 2 weeks, we get rid of the babies and get a couple in hopefully attackers we could give a good go, we get no one in and we will finish mid table at most. |  | |  |

It does seem a bit cult like at times. A bit Scientology-esque. People seem genuinely offended by simple observations like “bottom half isn’t very good” and “Martin doesn’t really learn and is way too stubborn with a style that is proven not to work”. It’s become tribal now to a point where I think we could be relegated and people would probably blame the owners or something else altogether. All Martin has to do, is get the side playing to its potential and being consistently in the top 6-8. With the weakness of this league and the strength of this squad, it really isn’t a massive ask. His penchant for falling out with quality players doesn’t help matters though. |  |

It seems to happen more times than just coincidence I must say. I’m happy to listen to the reports of ownership practices that are hurting the club though. The sources on this board are usually very accurate because of their sources so don’t ignore them. It makes a lot of sense when you think about it given our behaviour in the market place each window.

Agree UJ. Ignore reports of source of transfer issues being caused by the owners intransigence at one's peril. The reports on here by the Swans Indy writers are I believe from reliable sources and it is a worry. |  |

All about opinions mate. I think when Martin doesn't insist on the players playing Martinball we have looked like a team worthy of the top 6. If we finish 16th he should get sacked, end of. |  | |  |

I wouldn't like to see him sacked, but finish in the bottom 3rd and he may feel it is time to leave. I cannot see the owners sacking him though |  |

The only way he will be sacked is if we freefall into the relegation positions and as you say we have a team worthy of challenging for a place off place. |  | |  |
