First is predictable, 1 win from 11 games in the league from a team looking for promotion is shit, second decision somewhat baffling, he did a great job at the end of last season, not a great start this season, but axing him after 7 games is ridiculous.
I still think Swansea made a bad decision in getting rid of Laudrup, I know he had issue with the board but still, I think if they had stuck by him they would be challenging for a Europa spot most years. As for Guidolin apart from Hull and maybe Southampton, they weren't games I expected them to get more than the odd draw from; when you look at the fixtures they weren't exactly games I expected Swansea to get many points from. I get the board wants to aim high but firing a manager after losing to City twice and an in form Liverpool is beyond me. Okay he threw away leads to L'Pool and Chelski but still, if that what the bar is to getting fired nowerdays then wow.
Bob Bradley has been appointed the new Swansea manager, good luck to him, he's going to have Giggs sitting in the wings waiting for him to screw up which I don't envy him for.
