Oh Dear... 11:41 - Dec 30 with 7110 views | TimTtam | https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/swansea-city-liverpoo Steve Cooper has reiterated that Swansea City will not be making any signings in the January transfer window, despite reports claiming that they were on the brink of securing a loan deal for Liverpool's Rhian Brewster. But speaking after the stalemate with Gerhard Struber's men, Cooper once again stated that his side were not going to bring any players in next month. "No update, apart from, it's common knowledge that there's no money," he said on Brewster. "Until such time that changes, in terms of personnel, I won't think about it but we won't be bringing anyone in." No signings. None permanent, or on loan. None. | |

Oh Dear... on 12:07 - Dec 30 with 4953 views | thornabyswan | 180 million received in transfer fees and parachute payments since relegation 1 point off the play offs wage bill massively reduced as well. And still we are skint fukcing joke. | |

Oh Dear... on 12:11 - Dec 30 with 4920 views | Swanjaxs | The sooner everyone realises the Americans have been royally bumming us from day one the better 👠| |

Oh Dear... on 12:13 - Dec 30 with 4919 views | thornabyswan | And the trust cant see the accounts odd that. | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:13 - Dec 30 with 4918 views | A_Fans_Dad | This guy has zero ambition and zero backbone. No mention of the fact that if Ayew gets sold we would have cash and a massive reduction in wages to fund a player or two. | | | |
Oh Dear... on 12:13 - Dec 30 with 4916 views | Badlands | I think he'll get a bit of a bollocking for that statement. I doubt we'll bring in any major signings, TBH I don't think it's worth investing while Cooper is manager. 1 point of play-offs we may be but does anyone seriously think we could promoted with this manager? | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:16 - Dec 30 with 4898 views | Cooperman | Are you naive enough to think that he would say that to the press? | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:18 - Dec 30 with 4888 views | A_Fans_Dad | To say what to the press? | | | |
Oh Dear... on 12:19 - Dec 30 with 4870 views | Cooperman | Cooper and what you wrote. | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:20 - Dec 30 with 4865 views | thornabyswan | Yes dont like the truth this lot. Would prefer Trevor to come out with a load of hot air and pi$$ yes thats the carling that was served up yesterday. Yanks out. | |

Oh Dear... on 12:22 - Dec 30 with 4851 views | Highjack | Welcome to the next level. | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:25 - Dec 30 with 4841 views | A_Fans_Dad | Why shouldn't he say that to the press, every manager before him since the yanks took over has said the same thing, we can't buy unless we sell. But he didn't say that according to the OP. | | | |
Oh Dear... on 12:27 - Dec 30 with 4828 views | TimTtam | He did say that until the financial situation changes, there will be no signings. So it's possible we may make signings. But that will only happen if we sell Ayew and/or Rodon. | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:28 - Dec 30 with 4820 views | Cooperman | It would be equally naive of him to present our financial outlook to the entire world and in particular those clubs / players / agents who may be the focus of our new found ‘wealth’. | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:29 - Dec 30 with 4810 views | monmouth | Basto must surely be first out the door? | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:33 - Dec 30 with 4787 views | magicdaps10 | What wealth?? | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:35 - Dec 30 with 4783 views | thornabyswan | Yes he will be off a couple of Spanish teams interested. Wages transfer fee will be the problem my guess as they want him for nothing with us paying half his wage. [Post edited 30 Dec 2019 12:42]

Oh Dear... on 12:35 - Dec 30 with 4780 views | Highjack | The stupid thing is last time we were in this division we finished third playing great football, dominating teams and scoring lots of goals with a squad mainly built on free or cheap transfers. Those players are still out there, we just can’t be arsed to look for them anymore. | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:40 - Dec 30 with 4746 views | A_Fans_Dad | As if they don't know, even Birch tells it like it is. | | | |
Oh Dear... on 12:41 - Dec 30 with 4739 views | Cooperman | It was a little bit tongue in cheek that you’ve clearly missed. | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:41 - Dec 30 with 4739 views | thornabyswan | And even if we found them Cooper would have them playing percentage football. We need New owners New manager New side. Apart from that would leave it as it is. | |

Oh Dear... on 12:48 - Dec 30 with 4693 views | Whiterockin | Last time we had a style and structure in place to develop and go forward. We brought players in to fit the recognised style we had and it was a seamless transition. Now we a just a mess from top to bottom, board, manger, players and even the trust. People are saying we are only a couple of players short of a promotion push. So what if we managed to get into the play offs, we certainly wont be top two, and somehow fluked promotion. Does anyone really believe that we would do anything but come back down with bigger dept. The mess at the club needs to be sorted out before realistically we can move forward.

Oh Dear... on 12:50 - Dec 30 with 4669 views | Badlands | We had all that in place when Monk was given carte blanche. | |
| |
Oh Dear... on 12:59 - Dec 30 with 4626 views | Whiterockin | And we all know the Monk appointment was the beginning of the end. He did not fit our style and personally decided to deconstruct everything we had in place. | | | |
Oh Dear... on 13:11 - Dec 30 with 4590 views | sainthelens | Sums up the state we are in. Make a statement like that then advertise season tickets for next year. Couldn't make it up. | | | |
