Legal action 19:45 - Aug 31 with 8470 views | cwmdonkinjack | Whilst on and off the field matters are separate to some extent, do we really want to drag the club through the courts and create the impression of disharmony. Sometimes in life you just have to take things on the chin and move on. I see the only winners of this action to be the lawyers and a media who would be more than delighted to stick the knife in. Let’s keep the positivity of a great start to the season and build on the momentum of our new management and eager squad involving many products of the investment in our academy. Several key decisions including the appointments of chairman, manager and transfer team are looking spot on and we have managed to move on some of the right players and get decent value for others we would have wanted to keep. C’mon you Whites! | | | | |

Legal action on 19:55 - Aug 31 with 5819 views | 3swan | So what you're saying is that, a decision that wasn't taken lightly, should be ignored as the team is doing well. I agree things are looking positive, what happens if we go on a bad run will your thoughts change? The issue has to be faced and not brushed under the carpet as I'm sure I've read there is a time limit for any legal action to be taken | | | |

How can you have a plan B when the current and ex owners would not take part in any discussions | | | |

Great post. The Swansea City Supporters Trust are an essential part of our football club through good times and bad. Justice should be served whether we are top of the Prem, or bottom of League 2. It makes no difference. | | | | Login to get fewer ads
Legal action on 20:32 - Aug 31 with 5651 views | swancity | Any impending legal action will have absolutely no affect or bearing on current team affairs. Whether things can be settled before any Court hearing is another matter but the Trust have been badly treated by those who were supposed to be working alongside them which is despicable in the extreme and those involved must now face the music. It will not be pleasant undoubtedly but the Trust have worked hard to fight for what is theirs and there's no going back now... | |

Legal action on 20:33 - Aug 31 with 5647 views | cwmdonkinjack | I’m not arguing about the reasons for legal action, that have been widely aired, I’m pointing out the reality of how long it might take, what it could cost and the unpredictable outcome and fallout. Whilst the current owners have been rightly criticised for many bad decisions and for their motives, the club, at least from the outside, appears to me to be run on a more sound footing than it was 2-3 years ago. | | | |

So you think the Trust should just stand aside and be a non entity because the club and team are doing 'ok' at the moment? I'm sorry pal, this is about the long term future of our club, not winning at Leeds and going top of the league after 6 games! | | | |

Backbone is one thing and weighing up the possible outcomes is another. I accept the majority vote but it doesn’t mean that it will be right. | | | |

Yes now is the time to attack the club . Baston and Ayew are playing well if they sell them plus Roden . They could buy the trust out. | | | |
