A number of the fans on their forum want Bradley gone..............after 4 games.

Two of those included Man United and Arsenal. And stoke away.

The pennies dropped with most though, Jenkins outttttttttttttttt.

Even as we speak they are scouting colleges for the best talent to see who they can get with that first pick.

By pick, I meant draft pick not a pick of Huw's ginormous nose

5 points adrift, a manager that has never managed at the level he finds himself at, no real leaders on the pitch, fans revolting( as they've always been) owners that are not investors but speculators. I bet they find a way to stay up though, if they do go down they may spiral out of control, normally wouldn't like to see it, but we have taken so much shit from them.

Actually as it stands 6 points adrift WBA winning.

Some have given up on 'soccer' and have vowed to return to watching regional rugby on the box next year. Huw Jenkins has become the Antichrist and they want to change the manager every six weeks. Sam Allardyce is their preferred choice what with Pep Guardiola being unavailable. At what point will they realise they have become totally spoilt?

Swansea City
Bad. I mean really bad. The kind of bad that makes you check the odds on a team finishing bottom of the Premier League, seeing the price of 5/1 and considering it. The kind of bad that makes you watch Match of the Day 2 five hours after the game finishes to check it was really as bad as you thought, and realising it was worse. The kind of bad that makes you check to see that Swansea didn’t sell four of their first-team players from last season without you noticing. If Bob Bradley didn’t already know that he had a job on his hands, he does now.

One huge worry for Swansea’s new manager is that there is no discernible fight from a group of players whose comparative quality makes fight a vital tool. The squad is littered with players who are not good enough, not good enough anymore or not good enough yet: Angel Rangel, Modou Barrow, Alfie Mawson, Stephen Kingsley, Leon Britton, Wayne Routledge. Ask yourself whether any of those would excel in a Championship promotion-winning team.

The sale of Ashley Williams might just have been the removal of the glue holding Swansea together. Their defence on Sunday – Mawson (who is still young and highly-regarded, Rangel, Kingsley and Van der Hoorn – is worse than at least four or five Championship teams, and every other Premier League team. Just in front and behind them, Leroy Fer and Lukasz Fabianski are left with far too much work to do.

In addition, the two strikers on whom Swansea have gambled their Premier League survival are also struggling for service and form. Fernando Llorente has had three shots on target since the opening day, while Borja Baston has had two in total. The pair need to click and click quickly if Bradley’s team are not to be cast adrift.

Rangel used to be a quality player (excluding when he used to be run ragged by Bellamy) but every time I see him now he looks like a headless chicken.

Do you think he's like a punch drunk boxer? Too many nightmares against Bellamy frazzled his brain and its affecting him now a few years later:hehe:

With no improvement pretty soon, I can see Sunderland getting shot of Moyes then who knows what will happen with them and a new manager.
I really cant see the Americans sacking their fellow countryman, and the first American to manage in the prem however bad the results get.
Ah well..

Sunderland could be a decent route back into football for Allardyce?

I hadn't really looked until reading this thread, but the jacks have only one win and have half as many points as hull (who were in all sorts of trouble over the summer).

Not looking good!

Same here.
All i've read recently is about the crisis at Sunderland and how bad they are doing, Swansea are above them by only one goal.
I was suprised.

Everyone talks about 40 points - they need 35 points from 27 games for that. 10 wins 5 draws 12 defeats? That's midtable form for the rest of the season. Tough.

What's he done wrong?

Invested 50k in their hour of need and got a return on his investment.

He's clearly a huge fan travelling from Holland for all those years to watch the Jacks in the lower leagues.

To be fair that's from around 30 years ago when he was a young man and it was part of youth / football culture at that time.

He's become a succesful businessman in his own right since then and helped save them from extinction. Remortgaging his house without telling his wife that's fanatical to say the least.

Typical football fans forget that like the time Borley was getting abuse from fans online even though he helped keep Cardiff City alive.
