Here is the statement: Update from the chairman | Swansea City FC
My first reactions are that this is a cogent and encouraging communication that openly addresses the current situation and presents first steps in a new order at the club.
Roles for Leon and Curt beyond the ceremonial will add immediate substance to operations in the areas of recruitment and other matters. Birch is intent on setting up a solid recruiting system that well not be adversely impacted by the departure of managers and coaches.
Recognition of Routs' value is expressed. If all goes well, we will see him resign for next season.
Potter's departure is understandable but nonetheless one disruptive pain in the rear end we could have done without. Apparently the Club is already receiving applications for the job. Birch seems to have a very clear understanding of the alignment that there needs to be between our football model, our players and academy pedigree and the new manager and fitness for purpose.
I'm optimistic ... I don't have much choice, it's a hell of a lot better than being bloody miserable.
