My personal opinion on this is its not so much the manager it down to Mr Lai whether he is going spend the cash to support any manager we have , i really think the coats family at Stoke & with Swansea's chairman they will put money in will ours ? Then we need a good tean on & off the pitch then we have a chance if he don't i fear for us for a long time . Would love Roy Hodgson as manager again in my opinion he's top bloke but we would never get him again .
