Russell Martin believes Cardiff City's managerial merry-go

Mon Oct 24, 2022 6:54 am

Russell Martin believes Cardiff City's managerial merry-go-round has helped his Swansea City side become so dominant in the South Wales derby in recent years.

Since the Bluebirds returned to the Championship, they have now had five managers in the dugout in seven derby fixtures. The Swans, meanwhile, have had only two in Steve Cooper and Martin.

Robinson getting sent off had nothing to do with it then.

Probably a better assessment as to our woes than our own board could come up with

Need to take look at how many managers both clubs have had last 10yrs? Makes interesting reading if true.? Will say they're far better at picking managers to suit them than we are. :D

Exactly they are a sly cheating little club, nudging players in the back on the sly then pretending the've been shot when tapped with a ball then every player juming around the ref, we just need to be a little more streetwise and do the same.

I would use every trick in the book next time to wind them up.

Hypothetical I know but I’m sure we would have got at least a point 11 v 11.

We never seem to do enough rolling around like we've been shot compared to other teams and seem to suffer from it.

You’re right. But I’d rather us not resort to those tactics regardless of consequences against us tbh.

He can talk about merry go round they lose managers every 18 mnths or so he is already being touted as possible manager elsewhere... in 10yrs they've had managers us 9.... temps not including... always easy to say after win personally I take his comments at a sligh dig at club because hes had good results lately different story earlier in season..

Exactly Alan, the man is so arrogant and until recently not liked my many of their fans. Totally played down the sending off as if it didn’t have an impact on the result just to try and claim all the credit. He’s so desperate to be liked it’s almost pitiful. I look forward to the day when it all unravels.

Thanks that was what was trying to say.... it was way it was said just how a swans fan on here would put it... your right as said earlier this season was not liked at all and tbh watch them sometimes on tv and to say been fortunate at times is about right at moment they are making most chances......711 passes 84% possession and just 6 shots on target shows this.... the game was ruined by Robinson just as other two games were changed by decisions from ref if had 2 or 3 points from them and be up table its that close.

I get the feeling this is a subtle dig at the club for sacking Morison. I would not be surprised if a lot of people in football feel similarly about that.

It's a dig by a smug person who 6 games ago was as popular as tan is! Was trying to be popular with swans fans by being one of them with his remark...
They didn't win because of change manager they won primarily because we got player sent off after 7mins...

They got better people running the club they have people that know about football unlike us with the idiots like Choo and Dalman not bugger all and an owner who thinks he is a football king but is a football clown
