The Swansea Way

He tried to time waste - it was the 85th minute. I don't condone the kicking and the card was rightly given, but the boy should also have been carded. One for bad acting and two for obstructing the player. I'm not a Chelsea fan but regardless of whom was playing, what the ball boy did was wrong.....Oh hang on, he is the son of a Swansea director.

Apparently Liverpool have offered Swansea 20 mill fo the kid - he goes down easier than Suarez and holds the ball better than Henderson.

Laudrup out.

Can't quite believe that

Taking owners to court for unfair dismissal.

I thought he was doing a good job, however they have not won an EPL game since early December.

"Following Brian Laudrup's sacking from Swansea City it has this a.m. been announced that Fulham, Cardiff, West Ham, WBA, Sunderland, Norwich, Crystal Palace and Hull City have also sacked their managers, and tomorrow Stoke, Aston Villa and Newcastle are expected to follow suit."

- AAP

Michael Laudrup.

lol

What is it with owners of Welsh clubs sacking popular managers just as the idiot Cardiff owner did?

Always makes me laugh when they replace an established manager with someone from the club with no experience, as if that's supposed to improve things. In this case they've replaced Laudrup with club captain Gary Monk who has no coaching qualifications or experience.

In place of a legendary player who has extensive coaching experience with  Denmark (assistant manager), Brondby, Getafe, Spartak Moscow and Real Mallorca.

I took an little more interest in this game as there was a player that I first saw in junior football more than 10 years ago.

Ki Sung was a junior in the Brisbane football competition and playing for his college. I had heard that a lot of Korean lads went to school there and many of the teams had plenty of these talented players. I went along and sure enough they were sharp, skillful and quick. 

Little did I know that one of these stand out players would piss me off by scoring against Utd.

Hmmm .... three games, nine points.
