    The biggest reason he stayed for another season with us was to prove he could stay a 2nd season somewhere since leaving Brondby.
    The more fans and pundits complain about him not showing enough emotion on the sideline , the less he'll show .
    He'll leave in the summer . If we do well by seasons end , he'll be hoping for a call from a top spainish club . If we don't finish well at the end of this season I think there is an outside chance he will return to Brondby to take over for Frank .
    I think Laudrup will push hard to get points before we play Napoli so he can bring all to bare on Rafa's team , Premier league is important but Laudrup needs to do well in Europe to pad his resume .
    I don't think laudrup ever wanted to leave Brondby, nor do I think Brondby wanted him to go. I Think they all played chicken during negotiations of a new contract and no one blinked.

    It's all Alan Curtis' fault, he's the one picking the team.

    you have to know about the swans like i do before you can spout your rubbish.....Laudrup did not know we existed so how could he know the players <ok>
    It is plain to see that the premiership is far to hard from what he was use too and other managers have found him easy meat to play against...

    What is Jinx going to do about this wally Alan Curtis is what I want to know.
    Not in Martinez or Rodgers or even Sousa's class.
    Living off his reputation as a player, never gets off his arse he's got about as much go in him as my Grandmother and she's been.......(yawn)

    "I'm retiring after 54 solid support following the swans so i don't care what league we will be in"

    Use English correctly, your support hasn't been "solid" ever since I first read any of your posts back in League 1.
    Also, supporting the Swans for a length of time doesn't cause most people to "not care" which division we are in.

    "if we go down then I will know who to blame wont I" -

    So it is you and your ilk who need someone to blame then. Relegation is always a possibility. 3 teams go down every year. Why the **** should little old Swansea City with the smallest crowds and budget in the division be immune to flirting with relegation at any point in the season? Yet you and a few others seek to denigrate a bloke with more class in his bell end than your good selves by blaming him for this calamity that might not even happen. Get a ****ing grip.

    "but as i wont be going anymore then im happy with what we have achieved as i have seen it all. the lows and the highs i was there now its your turn...me i don't care"

    You know what I don't believe any of it and I and many others don't care if you go or post either.

    It doesn't sit right does it. A supporter of 52 years giving up because we have slipped in to the bottom half of the premier league. Daiswan, you must have been a barrel of laughs when we were bottom of the 3rd division 10 years back.

    I know it's a bit worrying being so close to the relegation zone at the moment but I can't help but feel that Laudrup should be considered on his way to becoming a Swansea legend, rather than debating whether he deserves the sack. He's got you to your highest Premier League finish and won you your first top level trophy in years, not to mention taking you on a successful debut Europa League campaign(so far). If you were in this position coming up to a run of games like you've just had then I could understand the concern but you've got a great chance now to move away from the danger again with games you've got coming up. I think you'll back at this point at the end of the season and realise what a storm in a tea cup it was.

    Sometimes it takes an "outsider' to take a dispassionate view and come up with a balanced point of view.It's a pity some on here are constantly so negative

    Tbh - I think that's the majority's view (mine certainly), trouble is, like any club we have a very noisy minority. ;)

    He cemented that status for me last season with the success we had on the pitch and getting us to the ok stages of Europa. We all knew at the start of January we would be in the **** given the games we had coming up, the big test game of this month is against Fulham next week. Win this and we will gain the confidence to put a run together hopefully.
