Oh yes, we were sold for a pound. That was because Petty was desperate to get shot of us as he knew he wouldn't survive another week otherwise.
We chased him away because we knew better. Unlike you lot up there who welcome any shyster in with open arms.
Ironically, that pound turned out to be an incredible investment, whereas you have been taken for mugs time and again and just how much does your debt stand at?
Even your attempts at winding us up on here are comedy gold because the facts speak for themselves!
And yes we've been broke twice (before you say it) but our total combined debts are a small fraction of what you currently owe.
I have a personal favourite comedy moment, a cardiff fan (on realising I was a Jack, we were over in Swansea car auctions talking football) said "who'd want to watch them" and all I said was "yeah, it's hard being a Premier league team" not so funny in itself, but the look on his face as he turned and scuttled away was hilarious. |
Petty sold the club for about £100k ish He was the one who bought it for a quid off Mike convicted fraudster lardarse Lewis. |  |

£20,001 if I remember correctly. There is an amusing story that as the £20k was handed over in some hotel, Petty then asked the consortia for the £1 which was the consideration for the shares. They cobbled it together from pocket change in as small denominations as possible - and threw it at him.
I'm sure Phil will correct me if I'm wrong on that.
EDIT
It was £20k.
"In January 2002, a package and draft Consortium agreement was put together with the aid of Swans fan and Solicitor Steve Penny, who had offered his services free in the campaign to oust Tony Petty, and he, along with Tim Jones, Mel Nurse and David Morgan, travelled to a meeting in Cardiff to meet Petty. Thankfully, the offer of £20,000 to buy out Petty was accepted and a further meeting was called in the Sea Haven Hotel on 6th February to discuss the Consortium Agreement, which would become a signed agreement for the formation of Swansea City Football 2001 Limited."

Although the formed company was actually Swansea City Football 2002 Ltd. And doesn't mention the pocket change.

Be careful. It could yet happen to you.
Before Tan came, your club was on its arse financially and facing a day of reckoning in the courts with HMRC which it couldn't pay - which is why Ridsdale flung himself on Tan in the first place.
If Tan decides he's had enough and walks away, he certainly won't forget all the loans he's given you, and currently still earning him 7% annually on his investment. Is it inconceivable that he might sell the club for a £1, removing himself from the running of the club but yet leaving himself a nice annual return from whoever takes over? All conjecture I know but it could happen. |
I don't like to correct spelling errors, especially on one who always writes Standard English, but you wrote, "...removing himself from the running of the club...," when you meant "...removing himself from the ruining of the club...." I trust you will forgive me. |  |

Hello Sweyn mate (hope you don't mind me calling you that), but the thread is called comedy gold and i was just stating an occasion of yours. Now i know you are not like some on here that like to have a pop at us but don't like it coming back, very sensitive see some on here.
Referring to your point though, you will never find a post from me that has said it would never happen to us, far too intelligent to make a bold statement like that. | | | |

Howdy-doo, ScoobyDoo.
nope, I have no problem you referring to me as mate. You're a tidy poster and I like following your posts, you give as good as you get. Shame about your taste in football teams but we all know you can't help your allegiances.
Do you sing along with the "always be blue" the fans sing, or does the oxy-moron stick in your throat? | |

Good point about the always be blue inaccuracy. They should sing 'we'll always be sh1t'. that's an utterly safe bet. |  |

In full Tommy!
“Some people tell me that Swansea is the enemy. Swansea, for Pete’s sake! There is nothing wrong with Swansea but is that the extent of our ambition? Swansea will never be a big club and if they are being honest with themselves they will say so. If Swansea fans are Welsh and want to see top class football in Wales, then they should recognise that Cardiff is the only Welsh club with a cat in hell’s chance of making it.” (August 2000) |
That has to be the best |  |

I didn't think I'd see you apologise for it. I'm not surprised about you being, shall we say a traditionalist - do you know anyone who has bought into the red rebrand? | |

Ok i might have worded it wrong but i know you wouldn't like the word mate being associated with a Cardiff fan on here i thought you were bigger than that but ok i was wrong.
Not 100% blue but we are getting there jack. | | | |
