1000 or so Swans supporters staged a protest against the clubs owners, marching from Castle gardens to the stadium.
Lots laughed at them.
Are they laughing now ? |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

I am laughing at them . Brats that demand success. There is no quick fix. Just hard work on the training ground and shrewd recruitments. The club is actually on the right path but far from perfect. The team has to progress and use the academy stars . |  |

Thing is what happened after that ?
Of course it was a big support to see them gone.
There’s few with the danglers of those who put it on the line twenty five years ago. |  |

How is the club on the right path?
Financially spewing cash.
Recruitment is awful.
Youngsters out on loan aren't exactly setting the world alight.
Established players not being offered contracts.
Each season is worse than the last.
No one is demanding success, competency would suffice for now! |  | | |

Well, atm they have reduced that massively.
They don’t want the next P&S and the 2026 to reflect badly on them.
Ego and the desire to always have a club that is performing off the field to an extent with a for sale sign always there. | |

The cash flow is being worked on and I expect much better figure in the next accounts.
Recruitment may not be that disastrous. These players coming in are 22-23 or so and many never played in the Championship. Swansea as a club and as fans have been far too quick to write off very good player coming on loan or o permanent deals.
To massive goalscorers brought by the club and were shunned by the managers Cooper and Martin. Gyorkeres and Whitaker. The manager preferred to develop Cullen who is not making any progress and have given a new deal to Josh Thomas.
Jamal Lowe a natural goalscorer for Swansea was tried and trusted a but Williams did not demand to have him and previously Martin showed him the door. He runs at people. Swnsea mangers could not wait to move on Lowe Yates and Whitaker and now have gone 5 game without a goal.
Cotterill can play for Swnsea next season to replace Joe Allen. Congreve and Josh Thomas need games. Kukharevych who is not much older than Josh Thomas is scoring for Hibs and plays every week.
Darling and Cabango have been offered deal and I expect one to d sign and one to be sold. This is not unique to Swansea. Players like Freddie Woodman and Connor Roberts are entering the last 8 months of their deals.
Abdullai Lissah Govea Wilson and Parker are real good prospects and I rate Watts the keeper. | |

Some of that clearly isn't true, again. Take Lowe, we wanted him to stay but he was offered a far better deal that we could not match, or would not match, whichever. You can put that down to "the cash flow being worked on" because you can't have it both ways.
Cotterill and Congreve are not good enough. It doesn't matter though how your or I rate players, it's the manager/coach who has they say.
It has been pointed out many times that Darling and/or Cabango will stay and run their contracts down to get the best deal for next season. Of the 2 maybe Cabango will stay, Darling is far more likely to abandon the sinking ship. My opinion only, of course.
Not many are disagreeing about us having good prospects but why aren't they being given a chance? | | | |

100% the next accounts will be better. The Piroe balance we received from Leeds was used to clear the charges that had been in place for several years. That took place just before the end of the financial year. This financial year will be interesting as there has been no player to sell at a significant profit, the Wood sale was very small in comparison to the business we have done in recent years, plus season ticket sales are way down. The 15,000 crowd yesterday was padded with children paying £1 so although the South Stand was excellent, there was little money in it. The next home game on Tuesday 5th will a significantly smaller attendance for obvious reasons. The biggest effect on this financial year will be who will actually owns us, this we will have to wait and see. | | | |

Swansea spent money on Bianchini so did have the money to sign Lowe. The club were content to let him go and go for a younger payer. It was a choice. The club could have matched Sheffield Wednesday.
It is better to let Cotterill and Congreve develop. Cotterill is developing nicely. Congreve is a big powerful fellow that eds to kick on. The club have to use player they have invested a lot of time in.
Darling could be sold for a fee in January.
Injuries have interfered with Govea, Parker, Wilson Lissah etc | |

It’s odd isn’t it, apparently when we reported that summer windfall from Leeds we were wrong.
All of a sudden now, well, it’s correct.
Always said, the internet is a great time stamp.

The fan base is a mixed bunch with a very wide spectrum. The Trust lost out because the smarter wiser people were not listened to I would imagine.
The marchers were a hopeless bunch who wanted Huw Jenkins out after one bad season in 14 and had brought Graham Potter to the club. They had lived through the best times in the clubs history and protested the first sight of difficulties. They were part of today' s "entitled culture". Most now would probably want Huw back I suspect.
We have a Welsh / American ownership and the Welsh owners will not spend cash. They were worth a staggering £21m in 2016 but declined to cash in as they knew if they had cash they would be pressurised to invest in the club and be run professionally. They invest their money in murals and the Vetch gate which i at least something. .
The Americans control Swnsea city and keep the bills paid and around 300 people in employment. As Silverstein said when they stop investing it is administration. It is the American who will bring in new investment and Silverstein and co have been seen in Saudi Arabia. They can avoid FA inspection by using the LLP in Delaware where investors are anonymous as I understand it.
Some of our supporters sing disgusting slurs against the Welsh populace and the old boy dinosaur posters defend the ethnic slurs sung at Gerwyn Price to upset him while plying his trade Skysports Boyle sports and the PDA do nothing.
Coleman is accountable and he has a plan. It is a medium term plan is bringing 22 -24 year olds and developing them. I am unhappy at the goal drought and would not have let Yates and Kuharevych leave. The 22-24 yer old needs time and patience. | |

I am different to you and believe in personal responsibility. The marchers were at a time that Huw Jenkins was under pressure and Potter was a having some bad results HJ had one bad year and the club was recovering from the sick bed.
The marchers may have been upset on how the Trust had been mistreated. In fact they were architects of their own mess. [Post edited 29 Oct 16:17]

Umm, no. We didn't have the money to sign Lowe because the American owners would not sanction it.
Again you assume that Congreve and Cotterill will be good enough, the vast majority of players that go through academies do not make it into the first team of that club, most fall by the wayside, some go to lower league teams. Less than 1% of academy players actually "make it"
Darling can only be sold if he agrees to go. In January he can negotiate with other clubs, if he is offered a big enough deal on a free transfer, he will sit here and see his deal out. In fact we could lose Cabango that way as well, seeing as we have apparently insulted them both, why would they not do the best thing for them?
Injuries eh, who'd have thought it. They're not all injured right now are they?
What do you expect at Oxford? | | | |

Lowe or Bianchini? Swansea reportedly paid a substantial fee for Bianchini. The club could have afforded Lowe and chose not to. The fact that Coleman decided it is neither here no there, The money was available.
The club has gone for a medium to long term approach and that means players need time. Lowe would not have needed i any bedding in time.
I hope Cotterill will be good enough he starts every week which is good news and he impressed for Wales u21 in Iceland against a committed opponent. Cotterill is well along the process for becoming a professional football and scores goals.
If Darling gets an offer he has to consider it. Clubs with money will go for players like this, Swnsea did it with Manning. If it is right money wise geographically and in a club going for promotion it would be a bid g draw.
No one has been insulted. That is nonsense from agents. I do not believe everything in the press including this web page (with respect).
I expect a draw at Oxford. | |

The money wasn't available because the owners said no. Williams wanted to keep him, apparently.
How is what Coleman decides "neither here nor there"? He is Williams boss, even if he is a glove puppet.
We all choose what we want to believe but when 2 automatic first team choices are not signing deals and say they feel disrespected by the low offer, only a fool would deny the possibility they felt less than great about it. | | | |
