What an end to the season for Swansea. We can all let out a sigh of relief because Swansea City are still in Division Three.

I am sure that both players and fans alike will be pinching themselves today to make sure that the dramatic events of Saturdays final game of the season were not a dream.

It was always going to be one of those days when anything could happen.

As the Swansea players were about to come out onto the pitch, I am sure they would have heard that the Exeter game had been delayed.

Swansea's saviour Brian Flynn

It's time like those when players getting nervous, start to get negative thoughts and begin to get the jitters.

But fair play to the 'heroes' as Brian Flynn described them. They proved that they were good enough to stay up.

They gave the bumper Vetch crowd and indeed the whole of Swansea something to be proud of.

Obviously it is the players and the result which will steal the headlines. James Thomas' hat-trick will be described as 'the goals which saved the Swans'.

I have no doubt in my mind why Swansea will still be in Division Three next season - Brian Flynn.

He knew that he had to bring in some new players and that's exactly what he went about doing Mark Aizlewood

He has done an absolutely fantastic job since coming in as Director of Football.

It is never easy coming into a situation like the one he was welcomed into. He will have had to call upon all of his years of experience, but in the end it was that experience that kept the Swans alive.

When he took over he realised that things had to be changed. He knew that he had to bring in some new players and that's exactly what he went about doing.

Eight new faces were introduced bring a mixture of youth, experience and determination to succeed.

Just take the likes of Roberto Martinez and Leon Britton.

Martinez and Britton celebrate after the game

Martinez is the type of player who can steady the ship but at the same time add that little bit of quality that makes all the difference.

Leon Britton has been inspirational since his arrival. Indeed, so well has he performed, he was named as the PFA Fans' Player of the year for Division Three.

It is signings like that which proves Flynn's quality. Take it from me, if he is still in charge next season, they wont find themselves in the same position come May next year.

There will be an extra reason for the players to be happy with Saturday's result too.

Swansea's sponsors, Travel House, had promised to take the entire team off to the sunny islands of the Balearics if they avoided the drop.

So I guess the passports will be dusted off and the sun cream applied. Well done boys it's much deserved.
