I wonder if Swann is attempting to show potential managers that he HAS changed his approach, i.e. away from hire and fire in order to help him recruit someone new. Let’s face it, nobody — including a potential applicant for the job — could accuse Swann of not giving Cox every possible chance to turn things round. The squad isn’t great but good enough for a decent manager to get us out of this mess.
For all Swann’s faults I simply cannot believe he’d be happy for us to be relegated from the EFL. Unless a miracle takes place and Cox somehow manages to put a decent run together I think Cox will be sacked in the next few weeks.
Swann might also be lining someone up in the background. Again, I don’t think anyone could really blame him for doing so given the current circumstances. If Cox does go, which he surely must, a new manager needs to be installed and up and running very quickly.
