Stadium deal imminent 12:04 - Oct 14 with 4861 views | Wantagejack | Story in The Times today states 'Swansea City are close to agreeing a new 40-year lease at the Liberty Stadium. Under the terms of the deal being discussed with Swansea Council the club would gain day-to-day operational control of the stadium in return for meeting its running costs, which would reduce the potential liabilities faced by the local authority and fellow tenants Ospreys Rugby. If Swansea are successful in taking over the Liberty Stadium they will explore the possibility of selling naming-rights and seek to increase its capacity from 21,000 to 30,000.' | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Stadium deal imminent on 13:34 - Oct 14 with 4523 views | icecoldjack | The end game is fast approaching , can the yanks sell us before they relegate us ?? We all knew the situation once the club was sold, we all knew at day one the yanks could have made the perfect statement of intent by signing Joe Allen, they didn't , they only bought after they sold, the first predictable red flag, all that's happened since has been pretty much how most of us thought it would go, it's all so fookin' predictable, sleep walking to the decline of SCFC | ![](/images/avatars/13184.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Given there has been nearly 2 months gone since the vote and the Yanks still haven’t bought the Trust’s 5% stake - it really points to the Yanks requiring Trust to reinvest proceeds in this stadium expansion deal. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

They are clearly dragging back their investment money, IMO have already done so. They want all this with no investment going forwards. Fcking cheapskates. They have spent next to nothing by lower premier league standards and have coined in millions. Cuts [Post edited 14 Oct 2017 14:29]

"if we get relegated" Not to be a doom monger but surely it's a case of when we get relegated, especially as the team and manager suffers from a bigger re investment problem season after season. I agre though, absolutely stupid, and many people fans trusted sat back and let it happen ! | ![](/images/avatars/13184.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

They'll create a sub group in a couple of months time to talk about how they messed up again and how to spin it in a way that ensures the main people get voted in again in two years time. | ![](/images/avatars/10660.gif) |
