Russell Martin speaks out in support of Swansea City’s owners 3rd Feb 2022 14:52
It hasn’t been a decent run of results for the swans and despite the growing calls for him to change his managerial style and tactics it seems the support he is getting from the clubs owners is as strong as ever. And it will eventually lead the swans back to the premier league. 0




All seems ok for now, click above.

I’m sure Daps said all was not well and he was furious with the owners.

All isn’t well in certain quarters that’s certain, but it’s not exactly unfixable.

Good old PR stuff though? Even if things aren’t perfect he’s not going to publicly go against the owners and his employer. This season will play out hopefully with improved results. The main pointer of how well thought of he is will come in the summer

Of course, I’m just pulling his leg.

Last time I actually believed what a manager said in a press conference must have been in the 90’s before I realised it’s meaningless nonsense. You have to use your common sense and read past what they are actually saying.

Let’s not forget it was only around 6 months ago he was telling MK Dons fans he was staying for the long term only to leave 2 days later. Again he wasn’t going to say “nah I’m off”.

I have never understood why managers even do press conferences anymore, and get asked the type of questions they get asked when you know you aren’t going to get the truth.

Who’s injured, who is fit… that’s about all these things are good for. The rest is just noise.

>> Looking forwards Martin is confident. "They have the financial power...... >>

Which is precisely what we understood. Clearly choosing not to overspend right now (not wanting to compete with behemoths like Celtic); wanting to see more evidence of the sustainability of the current management team....

Makes perfect sense.

I’d say he almost certainly does.

When he was at MK he said “I know people will be criticising me for saying this again…” when he was talking about “should have won, we dominated”.

I think they were very much saying the same thing at the time. Considering the country was in lockdown he must have been talking about forums/Twitter etc

There's probably a clause in his contract about speaking out. If he says anything wrong he could face disciplinary action maybe?

Some of his comments would suggest if he doesn't read this board that somebody does and conveys opinions to him!

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

Martin accepts shared ownership and management decisions made as a group. Silverstein, Winter, Allen, Martin. He may not entirely agree but he accepts it. Swansea are not Bournemouth or Stoke.

What do you expect him to say...."Im pi$$ed off that despite getting some players lined up the plug was pulled at the last minute...its not good enough" and then throw his toys out of the pram....the guy knows he has already had a fair chink of wedge spent out for him...

Don’t doubt it at all. Some of his comments even early on in the season felt if they had some connection to what was being said elsewhere. As I said earlier in the thread it appeared to be that way at MK too.

He’s only human I suppose, I bet many would do the same.

He reads this site as do some players for sure, certain posters have been mocked within the group of players with one users name used when another player was being silly....it was a few years ago but couldn't say if it is still used although I highly doubt it.

The lady doth protest too much daps. I love the fact you try to give inside info on this forum when you have spent the last 10 years getting transfer link after transfer link completely wrong… I won’t be relying on your info any time soon.

You have had a Daps, son
