Next up, in the last game before Xmas, is the 410 mile round trip to Luton this Saturday at 3pm.
We come up against another ex-Swan, this time Luton manager Graeme Jones. He was assistant manager at the Swans during the Roberto Martinez reign, before they both ran away to Wigan taking most of our backroom staff with them. Graeme was apparently well thought of at Swansea and since he left we have tried twice, unsuccessfully, to lure him back as manager.
From 2007-20018 he worked with Martinez at Swansea, Wigan, Everton, and the Belgian national team. In Aug 2018 he left Belgium and Martinez after two years there, to become assistant coach to Darren Moore at WBA. They lasted seven months until March 2019 before being dismissed after a poor run of results.
In May 2019 he signed a 3 year deal to become manager at newly promoted Luton. His record there in 25 matches is W8 D2 L15 with a 32% win ratio.
In comparison, Steve Cooper W11 D7 L7 with a 44% win ratio.
