Hypothetical: We get a new manager - what is their first move?

And tens of thousands of Swansea fans.

Swansea fans worship Rodgers, too.

A club like that is happy with a lot less than a club like us.

It was Kenny Jacket who turned around Swansea, though given he doesn't have a foriegn name he hasn't got the credit for it. Since then, the other managers (Martinez, Sousa, Rodgers, laudrup) have just kept up his good work.

Jacket got them out of the fourth flight and into and around the promotion palces out of the third flight.

Martinez got them out of the third flight and into and around the promotion places out of the second flight.

Rodgers got them into the first flight and into and around midtable.

Sorry mate you're wrong Martinez entirely changed the style of play from Kenny Jacket's "British" style the foundations of which Souza nearly wrecked and Rodgers had the good sense to maintain - the result is what you see today.

My source: watching it first hand having family and business interests in the area.

The point is if we want something different than the Moyes, Mcarthy, Mcleish, Hughes cabal who else with experience of the British game? Kenny Jacket perhaps?

I don't think experience of the british game is needed.

not Martinez.

Eddie Howe, now there is a quality young manager in the mould of Moyes except unlike Moyes he as been successfull in far more difficult circumstances.

And Liverpool, who he turned down (he did didn't he?).

Oh yes mate he did, what spice that would give to a derby game if he became our man after telling them to shove it.

sadly not.
He had a general chat with them, they never offered it to him.

They invited him out to America mate, seems fairly certain they were after him.

I quite like Martinez for the way he comes across, nice guy etc, I'd have hated him to go to Liverpool, look at what it did to Brenda, I have fuzzy memories of him being sound until he got the red net aids.

Fairly sure he was their 1st choice until he decided to stay loyal to Wigan, whether a formal offer was made or not.

If we do lose our manager then questions have to be asked why we're existing like this for so so long.

Any new managers first move would probably be to a big swanky house in Formby.

I've heard Martinez's dad is a fan of Formby but he likes Birkdale's style.

If I've taken anything at all from this discussion, it's that Chico gets his news from the Express.

Tell Anichebe and Neville that no matter how many blowjobs they offer it will not guarantee them a place in the starting line-up. New manager new rules.
