With Swans fans still in shock at the capitulation of our team with three straight defeats, most recent being a pathetic display against no hopers Birmingham, one has to wonder if the head-coach has lost the dressing room.
With no idea how to break down a Birmingham side fighting for their lives, who pressed us high up the pitch and negated our wing-backs, we resorted to high balls kicked up field in the hope of one of our players getting on the end of it.
Why didn’t the head-coach and his assistants change the tactics, change the formation, make some substitutions, not just stand there like statues with hands in pockets looking gormless and lost as what to do.
With the auto-spot out of reach now, we move on to the next match and hope we can at least remain in a play-off place.
We know these players can do it, we’ve already beaten the top two this season.
Preston at home should in theory be a banker home win, they are down the bottom of the form charts and last won away at Blackburn 1-2 on 12 Feb. The problem for us is that they’ve just sacked their manager Alex Neil and his assistant Frankie McAvoy has taken over as interim head-coach. His first match in charge Preston drew 1-1 at home to leaders Norwich. He’s had an immediate effect, so here we go facing yet another team with new manager bounce for the fourth consecutive match.
It remains to be seen if there’s any pride left in this team, we’ll soon find out.
