    Chelsea fan here just wanting to say well done on getting Laudrup as a manager. He likes to play the football that you and we have all been accustommed to watching. Who would have though 5 years ago that you would be a mid table team with a great European manager coming in to take the realm? I have to credit the way your board, and also Norwich's board, for not making a fuss about Brendan/Paul being snapped up and instead moving on. Both sides are a credit to the prem.

    Anyway I'm looking forward to coming to the Liberty Stadium this season as I couldn't make it last time around (we were lucky). All the best.

    I think until this gets confirmed by the club we're all on tenderhooks, but it looks like something of a coup, eh?

    We've swapped Rodgers and some backroom staff for one of the best players of modern times, AND £7.8million. Huw Jenkins, take a bow.

    Exactly... seems a good bit of business... was watching Sky Sports News and they said it had been done but obviously as you say, it's not official until Swansea announce it.

    Just reported on the news at 12noon on the radio. Fantastic news!... and happy birthday Michael.

    Can't wait for the new season now and the fixtures are out on Monday. First time I've ever wanted the weekend to go quickly...

    Thanks for the kind words - glad that your team finally saw sense and gave a contract to the guy that won you the European Cup! Enjoyed the game - your team has some real spirit and determination under him and with some of your signings you'll be a force next year.

    Cheers, chelseaboi. I guess this might seem like a ripple compared to the comings and goings at your club but it's a huge news for us, after all we've been through in the past ten years.

    We love it in the Premier League and we hope that ML will help us to stay there and push on - preferably with the style of football that we have come to love down here. I hope you enjoy your visit to the Liberty - not too much, mind. :biggrin:

    I think Chelsea signed RDM swiftly as he was linked to us by the bookies! You can thank us later for doing you that favour chelseaboi ...................
