Sorry if a ferdy. But does anyone think that perhaps the Yanks will give him a bit of dosh to spend on transfers? They obviously like and trust him so why not? |  | | |  |

Sure as hell hope so.
But if it depends on Jenkins I'm not confident |  |

Will he bring a scout with him? Who would he bring in player-wise? US, Egypt, Norway and the French lower leagues (although Marhez came from there and from Le Harve no less) is a bit of a limited pool. |  |

Also depends on whether we are in the sh!t or not at the time of the next window. We saw the problems teams in a relegation fight have signing players last January | | | |

They didn't spend any in the summer and if they didn't trust Guidolin then they should have sacked him then.
No, I don't think they will be spending much based on what they've done so far. |  |

It wasn't an issue of trusting Guidolin or not, he didn't have his hands on the chequebook.
The change in manager won't effect our spending at all. It's still Huw's job to assemble the squad, and he's happy with it apparently. | | | |

If we are struggling by January, I'd imagine they will throw money at the problem. Let's face it, this is a commercial appointment and they can't afford to risk relegation. If we are holding our own, I can see them being as tight as they were in August [Post edited 4 Oct 2016 15:17]

I know he didn't have his hands on the cheque book.
I was talking about whether they trusted him as a manager to make the most of what they spent on transfers. They didn't spend any money so did they not trust him or would they have been as tight whoever was in charge. | |

Well for one they did spend money. Huw forked out £15m for Baston, for example.
I don't see why trusting the manager would make Huw more likely to spend money on players. Surely if he didn't think Guidolin had what it takes to make the current squad play to the best of it's ability he would have been MORE keen to spend, not less. He doesn't want Swansea to fail (does he???) | | | |

I actually just had a look online and it seems that at both Stabaek and Le Havre Bradley worked under a Sporting Director which I assume is a Director of Football, who I assume deals with the transfers. So I would guess that Huw is still in control of that side of things. | |

in order to spend money, due to our paucity of commercial income outside the TV deal, then they will need to do what Palace, Bournemouth and several other clubs like ours have done, and have a business plan in place which means they can break the FFP rules, as they can show a credible break even point in the future.
I am guessing they are looking hard at all of the commercial deals that we currently have, and how they can create more lucrative ones to replace them. And quickly.
otherwise their hands are tied the same as they were in the summer, when they took over.
You can't simply give the club money. | |

I don't think inventing ways to get around FFP and spend their own money is top of their agenda at the moment | | | |

What Bournemouth did was run up a 42m loss, over 7 times the legal FFP limit in the Championship knowing that no transfer ban or points deduction would happen in the Prem since the offence occurred in a different competition.
Meaning they ended up with a 7m fine in a season where they made 100m in TV rights alone.
Break even point had nothing to do with it. [Post edited 4 Oct 2016 23:36]

The £ has depreciated verses the Euro and $ over last few months so there will be no money for transfers. | | | |

They made a net profit.
They didn't spend any of their money. | |

Well no, and they won't in the future either (except in terms of very temporary, probably expensive loans). They're not in this to put money into a football club. | | | |
