Swansea City veteran Leon Britton has jumped to the support of Kenny Jackett.

The former Swans boss has just been sacked by Wolves.

"Kenny played a big part for us," Britton told the South Wales Evening Post, "and maybe he does get missed out a little bit when people talk about our climb up the leagues.

"People talk about Roberto (Martinez) and rightly so, but Kenny got us out of League Two and he very nearly got us out of League One as well."
