By doing the same thing and it hopefully working out this time, Ankersen wants to prove he was right about Jones.
Imagine how badly his vanity has been dented. He needs to try to remedy that. |
The W⚓︒s vanity will be even more dented when he see the season ticket sales if he appoints this tvvat. |  |

I just had a look at the Swansea fansnetwork forum to see what they think about Martin
The first comment struck me as somewhat familiar:
"When he goes,we will see a putrid goalkeeper replaced, the end of suicide defence passing and players being respected and nurtured playing in their best positions.
It might see us enjoying watching us again."
"It hasn't taken two years to get ready to launch an assault on promotion. We've basically wasted those two years trying and failing to get Martin's process to work. It's only when we abandon most of it that we get results.
By any reasonable measure he's been a failure here." [Post edited 22 May 2023 13:43]

56 passes. 53 virtually irrelevant. No pressing from other side and one incisive pass and a good finish which could have happened 50 passes earlier..... |  | | |

Cant help thinking 'Whats the rush'
Why have we charged into getting someone who's a risk to say the least. |  | | |

I can’t see why we can’t get Potter. He is a known quantity after all. | |

Based on his career so far, we can expect mid-table mediocrity, a lot of sloppy goals conceded to misplaced passses at the back and heavy defeats to the top teams in the division.
Why on earth are we choosing such a mediocre manager? We asked the same question when Nathan Jones was appointed. If you aspire to excellence, you don't embrace mediocrity. [Post edited 21 May 2023 23:48]

I think what we should expect from him Dirk is 4 months work for 3 years pay. |  |

You cant help thinking that we go for the sort of manager who wont rock the boat too much. | | | |

We seem to go for the sort that's more likely to sink it | |

Reason for optimism? |
Reason for optimism if you can teach the likes of Diallo, Bednarek and a couple of others how to actually pass the ball. | | | |

Not sure why everyone’s so negative, at least we might play some decent football so it’s nothing like the weird Jones appointment, we all knew he was a long ball merchant. I’m optimistic, some posters on here are like dogs with a bone, Dirk for example |  |

Well I think the negativity now stems from the constant slaps in the face by the procession of underwhelming managerial appointments, players brought in who don't really want to be here and
the resultant utter dross served up on the pitch. | | | |

Maybe he doesnt want to manage in the championship ? | | | |

When managerial appointments are as obviously stupid as SR's have been, you have to ask how much longer they can keep this farce going. | |

And it is turning into an absolute farce now but It's difficult to see a way out of it for Sports Repbulic . They'll get nowhere near what they paid for the club even if they do manage to find anyone interested in buying it.
A possible solution might be a breakup at the top, with Dragan Šolak releasing Rasmus Ankersen, who is behind the terrible decisions that have been made. They are long-term friends though, which complicates the issue. | |

At the end of the season, some folk on here will be applauding the players and the club for not getting relegated again. |  |
