No.



Realistically it is down to him, one Man team, and I think Monk is a pretty shit Manager, although he has had Some good teachers in Martinez and Brenda....

He won't manage you next season ......


Yet we finished 9th, 11th and won a major trophy without him, funny that.


History, you would have gone down without him, and every Swansea fan I know says the same.....

Liverpool wouldnt be top without Suarez either. So what?

Its funny, every season people say the same. "Wouldnt have done so well if you didnt have..... *enter name here*"

You have a long list to choose from - Scotland, Sinclair, Borini, Sigurdson, Michu, Bony... The fact is, if we didnt have Bony, we would have someone else.

I'm sorry but your wrong there. Everyone does not know, and just because you and maybe other class it as a major trophy, it does not mean I or other people class it as a major trophy. What you say is not gospel I'm afraid :thumbright:

Re: Monk to steer Swansea to top 12?

Sun Apr 20, 2014 1:33 pm

Of course we would have because we wouldn't have had a striker :?

Not seeing your point at all im afraid.

Yes it is - it is a major trophy because it gives a prize of European football.

You can disagree because we won it if you wish, but that is the way it is and always has been and always will be. No amount of huffing and puffing will change that.

My local team won a major cup competition according to them, they didn't qualify for Europe tho :?

Thats because they aren't professional footballers so don't have the option of European football - so in their league, it probably is a major one in their context.

In professional football it is different.

in this country there are 3 major trophies as they DO provide a route into European football.

Im not sure what you are arguing about really. Its not even a subjective topic and a given that has been there since they were incepted.

Still find it amazing how many genuinelly thought we may go down. Should get above 40 points now.

Looks like it is between you, fulham and Norwich fighting for 1 safety spot.

You have a decent chance imo, Fulhams goal difference may become priceless.



Our chance is more than descent!

After the result at Soton, the well-earned point yesterday and our final games being 66% winnable, that's a damn site better than a fortnight ago!!

You aren't a one-man team as some others have said: You are a none-man team. Fights in the dressing room, bigger clubs coming in for your better players and a chairman with a money-grabbing nature, all add up to disintegration this summer, and you know it!!!

I do think the Crapital Bum Cup is the lesser of the trophies, however, concede it was important to you because you attracted some players with the prospect of European games.

There the success ends I'm afraid. You need the same reality check we've had. It's just that ours has come sooner this year.

BUT we are not dead and buried yet. 66% of our games as wins and we have another 6 points. That could well see us survive and when we do, it'll be a case of who wants to play for little old Swansea or who would rather have the backing of billions (I'm no Tan fan but the money is handy!!!).

Maybe Bony would fancy a short trip up the m4 to play for real money.

It is the lesser of the 3 major trophies, you are correct.

But a major trophy none the less.
