    How much control do Swansea fans have? (Genuine question).

    I think both those links prove my point. Swansea fans "own" £20 million of current revenue, probably less than £1000 each - if they could liquidate it. The list in the second article isn't exactly illustrious is it?

    To be fair Linton Brown is the man who deserves the credit for additional sponsorship.

    Swansea fans own over 20% of the club , have seats on the board and a say in every major decision. How exactly does that prove your point.

    We can't keep playing the 'rebuilding' card. Wilson admitted we'd highlighted Fleetwood's full-backs as a weakness that needed exploiting, yet we played a narrow midfield and expected our full-backs, that are actually central defenders, to go and attack the flanks. We still concede the same sh*t goals that we conceded in the Championship, only this time against poorer opposition. The midfield often look like they've no idea where they're playing. These things are nothing to do with rebuilding.

    Fair enough, we could say this season was always going to be a bit of a write off and we could've afforded to give Wilson more time. I don't believe he would've taken us down, and we never expected to be going straight back up, but he's not exactly shown anything that makes me think next season will be any better. The performances have mainly been dire. I've been to all but five games so far this season, and have seen us play some poor sides. Some poor sides that we've not even been able to beat. All the best to Danny, I wouldn't have called for his head, but I'm pleased he's gone.
