The Swansea City Supporters Trust has called for the removal of Huw Jenkins as the club's chairman.
The trust has previously expressed its lack of confidence in Jenkins and said in a statement its "concerns are well justified and remain the same".
The trust congratulated Huddersfield for remaining in the Premier League for another season after drawing 1-1 with Chelsea but admitted it will "unfortunately almost certainly be at our expense".
"When Swansea City were promoted to the Premier League in 2011, we were similarly unfancied [like Huddersfield] to remain in the division," the statement added.
"However, we confounded our critics by playing an exciting brand of football on our way to safety, at the expense of more established Premier League clubs who were on a downward trajectory.
"It is with sadness that the Supporters' Trust notices the parallels between our current situation and that of those clubs relegated seven years ago.
"As a football club we have lost our footballing way and our footballing identity, making poor, usually reactionary, decisions time and time again. the Swansea Way, for so long a source of considerable pride, has not existed for some time."
Having called for the chairman to step down, the trust wanted to remind the majority owners to take this opportunity to learn and improve the club.
It added: "The Supporters' Trust urges the majority owners to take this opportunity to learn from the mistakes of the last few years and implement the necessary changes to ensure our football club regains its sense of identity.
"If we fail to do so, there is more chance we will struggle further rather than regroup quickly and challenge to regain the Premier League status we have now almost certainly lost."
Sky Sports News understands Carlos Carvalhal will not be given the opportunity to manage Swansea beyond his contract which is set to end at the end of the season.
Swansea are 18th in the Premier League and are likely to be relegated on the final day of the season following their 1-0 defeat to Southampton on Tuesday.
Carvalhal's team would need to beat Stoke City on Sunday and have a 10 goal swing work in their favour ahead of Mark Hughes' side in order to beat the drop into the Championship.
