Andrew Coleman : I don’t know if the club is up for sale on 09:57 - Sep 28 by jack247 | As in why he agreed to a chat that he knew would be published, when he also knew he’d be asked if the club is up for sale and he’d have to embarrass himself by saying he didn’t know. |
Is he setting himself for a job with the next majority shareholding, could they already own shares. So in theory he is currently working for them. | | | |

Bit of crossed wires here. I’m not talking about legalities or what the site is allowed to publish. That’s way out of my lane. If I was chairman of a football club, which may or may not be on the verge of being sold, I wouldn’t agree to a chat with any website or media if I knew I was going to be questioned on that and knew I’d have to give an embarrassing answer. He can’t stop anyone publishing anything, but he doesn’t have to go on record admitting he doesn’t know what’s going on either. | | | |

So why do it, is he unhappy and making a point OR really not very bright? Or is there a third option? | | | |

Well this is my question. Only plausible reason I can think of is that the club is changing hands and it’s a tentative way of getting it out there without confirming anything. It’s a total guess though. I have no inside knowledge and could be completely wrong. | | | |

Heis job is running Swansea city and seems to me to be doing a d cent job. He does not have a limitless budget and he cannot force players to sign new deals. He is a shareholder of the LLC but he is an employee of the LLC not a decision maker of the LLC. If you want to know whether the club is up for sale it is better to ask the parent company not him. | |

No need to ask anyone else. He’s told us all we need to know on that. | | | |

It all sounds a bit weird though, do you not think so ? | |

Andrew Coleman : I don’t know if the club is up for sale on 18:50 - Sep 27 by SullutaCreturned | I've said it before, I think the Americans thought they were getting a stable EPL club for their money. I don't think they unerstood the situation here at all. Most of us could see the drop coming, we saw the gradual fading of our team but Levein etc, they got sold the fairy tale by our previous owners and went with it. Maybe they thought, being smart alec USa businessmen that they knew better and were certain they were getting something more, more bang for their buck. They're more knowledgeable today, about Uk football, that's for sure. I think they want out but don't want to admit it. |
Wasn’t the season after we were relegated a massive hike in premier league tv rights money? They were looking at that, buy the club, make loads that year. [Post edited 28 Sep 17:19]

Andrew Coleman : I don’t know if the club is up for sale on 08:54 - Sep 28 by QJumpingJack | If true, Mr Birch deserves a lot better. |
Of course he did and does, but according to one on here he was useless for the Swans, the real reason for that accusation is that he didn't bow down to the Us owners and nor should he have, he knew the game inside out and knew what was needed to progress, you only need to look and see where Birch is now to see that. | |

Mr Birch is respected throughout the football industry. Moreover he was an excellent communicator when he was at Swansea. A lot of our off field staff could learn so much from him....... | | | |
Andrew Coleman : I don’t know if the club is up for sale on 20:47 - Sep 28 with 552 views | QJumpingJack | Going back to the original story posted yesterday. Coleman does not seem to know if there are any major changes planned. Did Winter and Martin know that Coleman and Watson were coming in Spring 2023? | | | |
