OSG Prem: Swansea Sack Laudrup

In the most recent version of "what have you done for me lately?" The Swansea front office, amidst rumor of split opinions on manager Michael Laudrup, has sacked him as the team is fighting to avoid the drop...

Last season's top-ten Premier finish and Cap One Cup win be damned, all the injuries in the world not withstanding (especially to Michu), but winning only one of your last ten will do this for you...

“It is a decision we have taken reluctantly," Swansea City chairman Huw Jenkins said on the clubs website. “But it’s a decision made in the best interests of Swansea City Football Club and our supporters. It is the first time in nearly 10 years that the club has parted with a manager in this way, but we had to remove the constant uncertainty surrounding the club and Michael’s long-term future with us.”

Garry Monk and Alan Curtis will share coaching for the remainder of the season- and all that's up next is the back-end of the Welsh derby with Cardiff Saturday afternoon...

So, in remembrance, here's the 5-0 whitewash of Bradford City in the final from Wembley:
