I'll never know why they sacked Monk. First sticky patch he hit and they got rid.

Appreciate he's not tearing it up in the Championship but he's working with Championship players.

A good, young British coach ditched because they hit panic stations - and I don't think they were even in the bottom 3 at the time!

I always use Swansea as a yardstick to what we might aspire to...some day.

Apart from a flirtation with the top flight in the 80's Swansea Town as they were then were always in the bottom 2 divisions wern't they?

I think their crowds used to be like ours in divisions 3 and 4 at the Vetch Field, with little or no prospect of making the big time.

There is always a chance of the unexpected in football as Swansea, Hull,  Bournemouth, Wigan, Burton, etc. have shown. We continue to live in hope.

Crowds literally doubled overnight with the new stadium Lew and yes they are traditionally a 3rd/4th division club.

Just goes to show what can be achieved with a savvy owner, Jack to a King is well worth a watch if anyone hasn't seen it.
