May 8, 201114 yr To Brendan Rogers for reaching 3rd place with Swansea and to Scott Sinclair for banging in 24 goals (so far) this season - let's hope we see you at the Bridge next year Congrats also to Fabio Borini.. let's hope we see him at the Bridge next season!
May 8, 201114 yr Author let's hope we see him at the Bridge next season! Well pen needs to be put to paper quick. If he was going to stay I don't think he or the club would allow his contract run down.
May 8, 201114 yr Well pen needs to be put to paper quick. If he was going to stay I don't think he or the club would allow his contract run down. I fear you're right but hope you're wrong. He's looked a natural goalscorer for the reserves and for Swansea, and I would love to see what he could do in the Premier League.. in a Chelsea shirt, of course.
May 13, 201114 yr Swansea were excellent last night in the first leg of the Championship play-off semi-finalaway at Forest, coming away with a 0-0 draw despite being down to 10 men for almost the entire game, Neil Taylor having been sent off after only 90 seconds. In fact during the first half especially it was difficult to tell which team was a man short. Fabio Borini, who had come close on a couple of occasions, was taken off with a suspected hamstring injury but Brendan Rogers said after the game that he didn't think it was as serious as they'd initially thought. Second leg next Monday., match report here: LINK
May 13, 201114 yr I really think he will be staying in Wales if Swansea is about to get promoted. Would be great to get him to sign for us and go on loan to a premiership club though :)
May 29, 201212 yr Really hope he doesn't go to the scousers. I like him too much for that. Plus, I think he'd be good for them and any team in the PL to an extent Edited May 29, 201212 yr by GaryWalsh
May 30, 201212 yr The BBC's Midlands Football Reporter Pat Murphy reports Swansea City manager Brendan Rodgers is expected to be confirmed as the new Liverpool manager in the next 48 hours. The clubs are understood to be discussing compensation now.
May 30, 201212 yr Cant believe he is going to Liverpool. A good Ulster man gone bad. Take em down Brendan
May 30, 201212 yr Didn't he do something similar at Watford by saying he wouldn't join Reading and 2 weeks later he joint Reading.
May 30, 201212 yr It is quite strange that a week ago he apparrently had no interest in the job and now he is going to get it. He's a good manager, but then again so was Roy and the pressure and circumstances of that job destroyed him within six months. Rodgers has a lot of dross to clear up, and that squad still his to be revamped totally (thanks for that Kenny).
May 30, 201212 yr As much as I like Rodgers, I cannot put into words how much I hope he fails miserably at Liverpool
May 30, 201212 yr Why, Rodgers? Me too , I want him to do well but not at that place .................so long as he gifts us 6 points each year might not be too bad
May 30, 201212 yr Oh dear, not nice having to wish one of your own a sh*t time there but my God I hope he f*cks up.
May 30, 201212 yr I think he's on a hiding to nothing. Third rate squad and fans with ridiculously inflated expectations for where they are. Most of them are still pining for Benitez and Dalglish. He'll be under huge pressure if they don't hit the ground running.
May 30, 201212 yr http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2110901/Chelsea-job-destroy-says-Brendan-Rodgers.html Haha, what a twat. Can't wait to watch him fail, get sacked and then wonder where his hubcaps went.

Rodgers has a lot of dross to clear up, and that squad still his to be revamped totally (thanks for that Kenny). I gather that he distanced himself from the role when there was a long list of candidates, sort of took the "why bother upsetting the club (Swansea) when my chances are so slim" mentality. Wonder how this would make Sigurdsson feel? He's about to sign for them for 6.8m. If we weren't looking so plush with attacking midfielders I'd say we should hijack the deal!
May 30, 201212 yr Real shame as I liked and respected him. All thats gone out of the window now. He'll either be great or an absolute f**king disaster.
