    Well it could have been worse, we could have ended up with Giggs, though both should be plying their trade in the lower leagues............<ok>

    my 6/5 bet with the house looks pretty damned sweet right now <laugh>

    the guy is VERY unlucky as his team really tried their best for him. New guy i don't really know if he's good enough. I remember his yank side but god... you know it smells like new us owners just putting their own man in and he could be awful.

    he managed usa when his son playing in world cup 2006 and 2010.

    IMO its a HUGE risk for a guy who's not managed a top club in europe.. le harve hardly count!

    He did well with USA. lets be fair. All I can say is theres a lot more to running a football club that that and the day to day week in week out stuff is a question.

    huge risk IMO.

    I'd have preferred a management team made up from Giggs' former misstresses than Bob Bradley.

    Shame. How long has he been in the job - 9 months or so?
    I think managers need more time than that to turn things around.
    Unless they're Woy, obviously.

    Managers like Woy shouldn't be given the time for an interview.

    From the outside looking in....

    I think Guidolin did a good job when he came in. He seemed to steady the ship and started grinding out important results to ensure Swansea's safety last season. This season, they have played Chelsea, City, Liverpool and the defending champions. What did they expect?

    I honestly think the new yank owners wanted thier man and that was just it.

    the minute i heard they were talking to guys i knew the result this weekend was meaningless and this was preplanned for this international break.

    The guy could have beaten us 3-0 (and might actually have done it) and he was getting it. Yank owners wanted a yank manager.. and i hope the swans don't pay for it

    Again, you need to read up on the rules if you've not heard of the term 'exaggeration' as opposed to simulation. Maybe such things haven't penetrated as far as South Wales yet. And there was nothing 'soft' about the pen - it was nailed on. And the 'accidental' foul by Ki was worthy of a booking as it was uncontrolled. That's in the rules too, should you be arsed to back up your hysterical tantrums with any actual facts.

    Absolutely. You ****ed us in that first half, even more than Arsenal did to us in our opening game. You should have been three up and out of sight at half time, but you weren't. As with Arsenal in the second half, we came out a different team, but we didn't score three more like we did against them, and we were left hanging on for a silly (on Rangel's part) pen, and incredible luck when your CD missed an open goal in the dying seconds. That's football.

    We were spawny a couple a season's ago at the Liberty when Hendo deflected one in from thirty yards. That's tough. But we splattered Burnley and they scored two goals from two attacks, which is our fault. These three points, from our perspective, make up for those. What goes around, and all that.

    Good luck with your new manager. The Prem is a better place for Swansea, despite one or two of your whingey fans.
