Not bothering to acquire a replacement when we had already lost Terry was lunacy, though. Not so. He was pretty good when he first arrived and played well with Chester. He struggled later on and never recovered fully. Signs he can play -he has had good games-not just easy games. Good coaching and team structure would help any centre half. One thing no-one would criticise was his attitude.

As much as I am very excited by the appointment of a coach and a DOF I do however have some concerns on some of the stats I have seen.As much as we assume he plays attacking football his win ratio is not as impressive as I would of expected and he never emulated the league position his predecessor did at BrentfordI really hope that it works out for the guy and for us
Totally agree re Chester - a left sided centre half and left back are the only signings we need to make in January.
Should be a big crowd for his first game in charge. Swansea have sold out 2800.
I remember watching Elphicks debut thinking ‘he’s not up to much, I hope he’s got it in him to get better’He didn’t. I don’t think I saw him have an impressive game, not his fault, we’ve made better players than him go to pot quickly.

Upper Trinity now open for Swansea. Nice.
Does anybody know what's been happening since the appointment? Dean Smith had prepared to do double training sessions with Brentford this and next week but I haven't seen anything to say he's been at Bodymoor Heath with the players yet. Maybe he's with Terry and O'Kelly planning and only starting with the players on Monday.
