Garry Monk won't let Swansea City's season "fizzle out"

Swansea City manager Garry Monk has insisted that he will not allow the season to "fizzle out" following their FA Cup exit.

The Welsh side's chances of winning a trophy were thwarted following a 3-1 defeat to Blackburn Rovers in the fourth round of the competition.

Prior to Saturday's loss to Championship opposition, the Swans suffered a 5-0 hammering at the hands of Chelsea in the Premier League.

"[The season] won't fizzle out, I'll make sure of that," the Daily Echo quotes Monk as saying. "It's my job. Anyone who knows me, the players that know me, will know I won't accept that and the players won't accept that."

Swansea are currently ninth in the league table.
