Are we entering two huge games to determine Russell Martin’s future at Swansea ? 11th Feb 2023 11:06
The away trip to Sheffield United this weekend is possibly not going to affect the immediacy of Swansea City’s managerial future. However, without exception Swans fans will be looking at Wednesday nights home game against Blackpool after last weekends collapse against Birmingham City. 0

Pretty much my sentiment too. I was quite emotive after the Brum game as were a lot of people but in my opinion we played well enough and should have put the game to bed long before their resurgence, but having calmed down and given it time to sink in I’ve made some decisions.

I’m not going to renew my season ticket before the 18 Feb because it isn’t good value for money at the moment, if I see investment going into the first team over the summer I might change my mind and it’ll cost me £30 but in a strange way I might feel that the protest will have worked.

Answer is No,as he isn’t going anywhere.
We ve been told that
Frankly, this is the closest I’ve been to not giving a rats arise and that includes the Perry/Cullis era or even the late 60 s .
Martin has killed any joy due to his affectation with mindless passing and the Owners simply allow this .
It’s why both are to blame

My feeling is that if we lose both games five - nil he will still be in the driving seat. If we only gain one point out of those two games, we will be drifting towards a relegation battle. Lady Luck might be involved at some point or other.

If Martin were to be sacked I expect the compensation will be linked to league position. 1-6, 7-12,13-18,19-24. The lower we are in the league - the less we pay out.

I expect Martin will leave in the Summer. We are likely to lose today but could get a victory vs Blackpool.

A manager out of his depth combined with distant owners in terms of location and interest. It looks like we are stuck with what we’ve got - would the yanks be willing to pay Martin compo? Do they even care? “Next Level” eh.

It’s ok, he won’t be here forever.
Did you honestly think he would be here forever 😂

Its disgraceful that the manager is being blamed for the owners incompetence, the cheek of it, Martin is a better man than the entirety of our board, the disgraceful clowns, how can anyone with an IQ bigger than their shoe size think the manager is to blame

We were so lucky to win away at Blackpool. It was a lovely day out in the hot sun. One of the few highlights of the season. Let hope they don't get the luck we had down here.

I think his win / loss record regardless will now be the thing most will focus on.

We've just conceded seven goals in two games.

He's spent all of the money he's been given on the back five.

Fisher is crap, Darling is average, Wood is worse, Sorinola is league 1 level at the very best and that's being genorous.

The owners aren't great but......

He’s not being blamed for the owners’ incompetence, he’s getting blamed for his incompetence. He has a team of players who are good enough to be top 10 at least but insists in the same old ineffective dross week in week out.

The manager is being blamed because his tactics have become garbage.

I have always backed him, but no more, oh and the board have backed him, and he has wasted the money

we will limp along over the next month. Win one, lose two, draw a couple.
I expect we will win at Cardiff in early April which will paper over the cracks.

We are sleepwalking into trouble. I can't see us going down this season but the alarm bells are already ringing for next season.

So what if the owners had signed 4 players how do you believe that would have changed things

Look back at the Brum game despite having a seasoned defender on the bench who can play at RB LB or centrally in a back 3 our manager rejigged the back line and put an attacking midfielder at RWB a position alien to him at a time we were under the cosh
The owners have their faults but not as many as this manager we could have signed the likes of Pele Messi Beckenbauer and we’d still be where we are

It’s a pretty easy fix.
Bring in a free agent keeper and abandon suicide passing .
Move the ball quicker and forward .
Remove captaincy from Grimes immediately .

In relation to the original post.....i would say yes.

HVe to agree with OHL, Fisher is not up to it........we will really miss Benda and it just highlights how poor Fisher really is and that one quite clearly has to be on Martin.

Fisher did ok yesterday, but what yesterday showed is we are in freefall, and have two say its combination of everyone at the club , owners , players , including the one just gone, and management,

The events or non events of the transfer window may come back and bite us with a vengeance . fingers crossed it wont, but that last goal yesterday was a total sickner for me.
