    Support for Sousa?

    I read on the board that most seem to think he was the man and should never have been given the boot for Rangers however I have one question?

    In the Q, P & R blocks we tried to sing out he's name in support but it never seemed to work.

    We have had Gigi, Dowie & Magilton who had no problems with fans singing their names, so why was Sousa any different?

    The only time I recall we fans singing he's name was away at Cardiff, we fans sang he's name for a good 20 to 30 minutes load and proud, we fans were simply amazing that day but we could never get it going at LR, why was this and I've always asked myself this question?

    Anyone know why the manager the fans wanted most never supported him at LR, it's a bit late now to do so.

    Same answer as when you asked it on another thread.

    The singer in chief didn't sing his name as he thought Sousa was rubbish from the outset, as he has revealed just earlier today.

      I sang his name at Cardiff that night and despite the dreadful football I still maintain to this day that he should have been given a bit longer and the way he was treated was shocking at the end.

        Agreed. One of the worst chapters in the club's history, and that's saying something.

            to be honest, he was playing 4-5-1 at home, very frustrating to watch!

            however, that was his first time in charge and maybe he has learnt alot from his time here, which reflects swansea's league position.

            at the time of the sacking alot of people were calling for his head, but who knows where we would be if he was given more time?

              Very wrong you are and that's why I ask this question, I too didn't like the way Sousa played but we tried to get this song started at every game but failed.

              Like any song if fans want to sing they all join in but it didn't work but we managed to get it going at Cardiff, why was this and some genuine answer please because I can tell you for a fact we tried at every game.

              I'm not saying it didn't work at all but it was one that fans didn't want to join in with and as a result faded away.

                    Tim, again not twisting as I am a Rangers fan as well and it was not quite the same with Sousa, every other manager we've had our fans joined in right away but it didn't always work with Sousa and that is a fact because I still remember it when we are talking about just that.

                    If anyone can find old threads, you will see that I was asking these same question back then, it's not twisted words so go back and take a look for yourself.

                    I'm asking a genuine question as our fans seem to love him all of a sudden... I'm baffled more than anything else.

                          For the record this thread is not about good/bad manager, it's about us fans not giving Sousa the same support as every other manager we had, well that's my opinion from what I have witnessed.

                            This bit is better ""Swansea City give any manager a good platform to work from these days, that's why Paulo wanted the job, and I think most people within the game now recognise that."

                            and people within the game know we give them 15 games and sack them for reasons not related to results on the football field.

                              Get you off Flav and F1 and you're quite sensible.
