The loss they make, if that what it end up being, will be shared by how many? Investors want a profit but they also will know that not everything goes their way, and will have a figure in mind that they can take a hit on. | | | |
face it lads on 19:04 - Dec 19 with 1645 views | owainglyndwr | We are knackered, the Americans have no interest in throwing millions during the tranfer window and The board or Ex Swans supporters have money to spend now with no interest in us. | | | |
face it lads on 19:07 - Dec 19 with 1631 views | jack247 | I'm sure it is. Let's not pretend Bob was anything other than an owners appointment though. By the Americans for the Americans | | | |
face it lads on 19:08 - Dec 19 with 1630 views | PawelAbbott | I don't think that is the plan. I think they intended to bring in an American manager and a few American players cheaply from their other teams. Then get a good marketing campaign going over in the US about the American team doing so well in the EPL. The potential interest is huge and an opportunity for them to do it cheaply. If they manage to get us to 17th at the end of the season with Bob in charge then they can promote it as the American guy coming in to save the club that the British and Italian had done so badly with. Expect to see some more Yanks get signed in January and Bob to be here until we are mathematically down. | | | |
face it lads on 19:15 - Dec 19 with 1596 views | A_Fans_Dad | As I said on a previous post I can't see the real investors being very happy with the way that Kaplan & Levien have handled this deal. I am sure that is was sold to them the way Jenkins sold to K & L, ie that the squad was good enough, we had great players and we just needed a decent manager to make it all happen. Instead they have bought a club that is facing almost certain relegation and vital losses in potential earnings. | | | |
face it lads on 19:16 - Dec 19 with 1595 views | longlostjack | If you are right we can look forward to a bumper injection of funds in January to make their dream come true because by now they''ll have realised that they can't do it on the cheap. Or maybe not. [Post edited 19 Dec 2016 19:18]

face it lads on 19:18 - Dec 19 with 1592 views | 3swan | Agree and as investors they will make their thoughts known. The loss won't be just a two way cut (K&L) but spread out. | | | |
face it lads on 19:24 - Dec 19 with 1554 views | A_Fans_Dad | If K &L oversold us as per Jenkins spiel and the J T A K I can't see them getting any future investment cash from those guys. They could even end up with broken legs or cement overcoats if they loose them a lot of cash, depending on who they are dealing with. | | | |
face it lads on 19:25 - Dec 19 with 1446 views | Landore_Jack | The biggest mistake was allowing Jenkins to continue with his normal duties. They trusted him and it has backfired badly. | |

face it lads on 19:27 - Dec 19 with 1430 views | Loyal | Or they left him in there to take the shit while they claw their money back, then sell us for a sweet profit. | |

face it lads on 19:27 - Dec 19 with 1429 views | PawelAbbott | I think we're going to see large amounts spent in January. I also think it will be funded by player sales, probably Gylfi, Ki, Bartley and Gomis. If the Ki to China rumours are true, could be worth £50M + in total. | | | |

face it lads on 19:40 - Dec 19 with 1378 views | Landore_Jack | I don't think that was their intention. They thought Swansea was a well run club that they could sell for a profit at a later date. They never anticipated what was to happen. They want to see the club stay in the PL because it would be worth a lot more compared to the Championship. Also, the chinese tv deal will be in affect next season so income will be a lot higher. Unfortunately, they put too much faith in Jenkins after the JTAK bullshit. | |

face it lads on 19:47 - Dec 19 with 1348 views | LeonWasGod | That's my take on it too. Which is why it was incredibly stupid of them to meddle by appointing Bob's. The most important decision made by the people who know the least . And as for the OP's £48 m claim, I can't see how that would be possible. We barely break even even with a player sale or two. Suspect they were relying on a reasonable divi each year, helped by greater commercial activity in America, and then maybe a sale down the line for a higher figure if the club continued to grow. That seems more likely. | | | |
face it lads on 19:48 - Dec 19 with 1340 views | NeathJack | Which makes you wonder why on earth the leech is still there? | | | |
face it lads on 19:51 - Dec 19 with 1320 views | Flashberryjack | I wouldn't say they specificaly intend to get us relegated. As long as they don't spend any money, there's money to be made wether we stay up or go down. The only sure way that they'll lose money is if they do as others have done, and throw money at the club in an effort avoid relegation, they may know feck all about football, but they sure as hell know the dark arts of business. Send no money relegation | |
