No, not a cooking thread.
Plymouth had their manager Ryan Lowe poached by Preston a few years ago, Schumacher was his assistant and he as given the job after Lowe left, and now Schumacher has been poached too.
It must be very frustrating for their fans.
Our neighbours to the west have had to deal with this before a few times I seem to recall.
In my 25 + years supporting it’s never happened to us.
Has it ever happened in our history?
Fairly certain Swansea have had four managers taken by other clubs in the past 15/20 years.
Martinez - Wigan
Rodgers - Liverpool
Potter - Brighton
Martin - Southampton
Appointing crap managers has a silver lining!Quote:

Phil Neil was poached by Steve Coppell to join him at Manchester city
That went well didn’t it.Quote:

Probably on a fair amount more. Bigger club. Lot closer to home.Quote:

We have more of a frying pan environment here so poaching is never going to happen
