🔴 January Transfer Window 2024 on 16:17 - Jan 18 by union_jack | By who though Keith? And what difference will it make. Coleman is no more than a mouthpiece, that much I’m sure about. |
Fans say he is a) On huge money b) Every US guy gone is cash in the bank c) He has no clout and a poodle for Levien who still calls the shots. He could employ a "Limey" on less money just to be a poodle. US saying. "do not buy a dog and bark yourself". These sayings have credence. Coleman has made it plain. The buck stops with him not Levien. The best signing Swansea have made recently was found by Levien. Fletcher exactly what the club needs. A 18 tyro striker on a steep upward trajectory.

Levein didn’t find Fletcher, he’s not a talent scout. Fletcher was loaned out for experience during the MLS off season. Levein himself said he’d be returning to DC United at the end of it. He was never registered to play for the first team here as part of that move. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Haven't you learnt by now Billy, only thing he believes in is the voices in his head. Levein was never gonna let him play here, its obvious that he's got serious plans for the young fella, which clearly doesn't involve playing here and I'll be very very surprised if that stance changes. | ![](/images/avatars/9760.gif) |

The personal attack go on. Nasty little cheap shots. "voices in his head" yeah nice Fletcher was at Swansea on trial . Duff admitted he club were "assessing him" for playing in the first team. WoL stated he was keen to stay on. Duff said he was OK but behind Parker and Wilson perhaps in the queue. He failed the trail. He would not be considered for the first team unless he sign up in January. Fletcher wants to play in Europe not North America. Levien sent him over and want to keep this asset signed up in the ownership group. The scenario is all a little too subtle for you and others. Henderson was on at least £12-£15m a year but could not see out even one year. Hypocrite and a wimp. [Post edited 18 Jan 22:47]

Fletcher was never at Swansea on trial, he was here to learn and develop, hopefully increasing is long term value to his parent club. He was never going to be allowed to play first team football for us, just accept the facts. | ![](/images/avatars/9155.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

🔴 January Transfer Window 2024 on 18:31 - Jan 17 by KeithHaynes | I think they have their ducks pretty much lined up. They simply have to recruit after Coleman’s bold statements this month. He may be a lot of things to a lot of people but he wouldn’t survive a complete loss of faith in him if nothing happens. Unless Levien intervenes as he has done the last two January windows. Then he would be in the same position as Russell Martin last year, he would have to apportion blame. Imagine that ! If he is to believed then they’ve been plotting this next two weeks for months. Coleman’s integrity is at stake for many. |
morning every one, with just 13 days left beforen the window slams shut i am still hoping the "frenzy" will come to life but in reality going on past windows in January am not expecting much if anything to happen that will greatly enhance our play off chances , and as Keith says the chairman who says HE is running the show will have a lot to answer, but lets hope we do IMPROVE the squad in the next days ( not holding my breath) | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

My take on it is. There is no sake buying just to bolster the squad, we need pace out wide an a proper goalscorer we probably have enough elsewhere. So unless we buy to go straight into the team there is no point. Other incoming players will be dependent if anyone leaves, that can change quickly and hopefully where the preparation has been done. | ![](/images/avatars/9155.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

This is just what I’ve been told, rightly or wrongly. Fletcher wasn’t on a contract that enabled him to play for the first team. Levien never planned for him to do so. Clearance papers would have been an issue, although not prohibitive. He desperately wanted a pro contract but Levien and co wouldn’t allow it. They have plans for him at DC Utd. That may include a proper loan back, who can say 🤷🏻♂️ | ![](/images/avatars/27565.gif) |

Fletcher was not on trial, he was loan to the u21s only nothing more. As far as I understand he was never registered to play for us in the league. Duff could say all he wanted, but I don't believe he was aware of the fine details of the loan, hence the background noises stated at the time. This is the DC statement at the time. Note he was on loan to the u21s, not Swansea City. https://www.mlssoccer.com/news/dc-united-loan-kristian-fletcher-to-swansea-city- EDIT The reply was to another post not Keith's [Post edited 19 Jan 13:44]

So was Duff in on it? I mean, maybe Gletcher was further down the pecking order for a shot in the first team, but couldn’t he just say “the boy can’t play”? | ![](/images/avatars/11384.gif) |
