Millwall v Swansea Sat 26 April 15:00
Swans fans will be frustrated and wondering what on earth is going on with the owners regarding their hesitancy in appointing Sheehan full time. The fans want him and the players have made it clear that they want him.
It’s deja vu time again, just like the owners hesitated to sack Williams until relegation was a real possibility, same with Martin previously. This time the wolves are circling ready to pounce and snatch Sheehan away. With the likes of Brighton, Chelsea, Leicester, Norwich, West Brom and Cardiff searching for their next manager, they will be watching how superbly well he’s performing in his interim role at Swansea.
With only two games left of his tenure the silence from those in charge is deafening. With no contact from the hierarchy and no job offer forthcoming what would you do in his position? His agent could well be in discussions with other clubs as we speak.
Sheehan can further enhance his cv with another two games left. First up are Millwall, three points ahead of us and still in contention for a play-off spot.
Last Saturday they beat Norwich 3-1 at The Den to recover from their 4-1 defeat at Blackburn previous match. They are in good form apart from that hiccup and are formidable opponents on home turf winning their last four games there.
Swans are also in good form winning five of their last six matches to shoot up the table and even give them a mathematical chance of a play-off place. It is so maddening that they have run out of games, with such top form a play-off place could have become a reality.
They sit at the top of the form table over the last six matches, outperforming all the top sides including Leeds and Burnley.
