Wtf is huw up to We have plenty off money yet can't even get Allen back No strikers For all the old board and huw has done it am pleased they have gone So much going on behind the closed doors For the love off me I can not see why we did not bring Allen back F#cking bargin basement players all the time. I understand we can't go stupid but wtf are they up too Stadium fiasco What a 3rd rate club we are Another season struggling it is then with less then 3 weeks to go and no strikers and no real first team signings after we struggled lass season.
I normally give the board and Huw the benefit of the doubt, but meekly letting joe slip through our fingers, when we were his first choice, is scandalous. With one semi-recognised striker going into the new season and no major signings, I worry for the season we shall have
Shame that we didn't push the boat out a bit there. Would have been relatively low risk and the fact that he's a homegrown player is something special.
Perhaps Huw is stuck in the past, in that he hasn't moved with the times. He got away with it the past but since ML and in particular since he's been trying to drum up some buyers he's not had his eye on the ball at all.
I was hoping with the americans coming he'd have to up his game...the next few weeks will be crucial, but the signs are not good (ulloa, Pritchard, HRK etc).
Price changed then between Friday afternoon when Jenkins said we did want him and now?
No it hasn't.
Some players you buy because you have a glaring hole in the team. Some because they are excellent long term investments available slightly in advance of a gap that you know is coming up.
Prediction - if Joe Allen plays week in week out in the PL this season, he will be worth at least double his price now in a year's time. These 'sitting' midfielders who can pick a pass are worth their weight in gold - look at Kante last year and what he's gone for this summer.
If we didn't want him, we really shouldn't have said two days ago we did.
I agree about the not being rich bit by the way - makes this whole 'we needed investment to compete' look a bit of an empty statement though doesn't it.
"makes this whole 'we needed investment to compete' look a bit of an empty statement though doesn't it."
It was always bollox from the start. Nobody fell for it surely?
Help? for what?.. being a rationalist.. your mother and father need to sue whoever gave you an education.. because the fees were wasted.. you're still sucking on your mother's t*t an all..
don't blame me when your future wife starts f*cking the plumber.. because you lack the required b*locks to man up.
This is planet swans gold ðŸ‘

Joey couldn't give two f*cks when Brenda snapped him up for 15 million, with a bumper pay increase..
Now his girlfriend is complaining about being homesick, and Joey is complaining about being homesick..
My sympathies go out to these multi millionaires for being homesick.. awwweee poor Joey..
f*ck me, I'd be happy with a job.. 1000s of people work away, and are homesick.. and earn a fraction of his weekly wage yearly..
But 'reality' doesn't exist in the footballing world.. or the 'real' world..
Come home Joey!.. we'll spend over the odds to make sure your life goes swimmingly well.. For no other reason than he's a 'local lad'.. f*ck, I wish someone felt for my plight and fight for a 9-5 minimum wage ambitions..
Poor Joey.. The bloke hasn't left his mother's t*t yet.. man up Joey, and take your millions like a man.
I'm fine with Joe not coming back. 1 year left on his contract and £13M? You're having a laugh. Plenty of equally talented footballers on the continent fot less money.
Bet plenty will applaud him when Stoke come down here tho'. You couldn't make it up. If he really wanted to come home, he could have dug his heels in at Anfield.

He should get applauded for his Wales performances as should Ramsey ledley and any others or has that all been forgotten already.

You expect Joe to dig his heels in and throw away a year of his career in Liverpool reserves? Because that's exactly what would of happened. They couldn't guarantee him first team football so he wouldn't entertain even getting a contract offer. They wanted to recoup some cash and Stoke have got themselves a very good player.

Agree with that mate.
Ramsey and Ledley have always got stick off our lot for their Scumdiff connections but after the Euros achievements I think we should applaud them all beforehand .......then go back to giving them shit for the rest of the game 😂😂😂 ðŸ‘ðŸ‘👠That's football after all !!
Think at this stage we have relegation written all over us. Every year teams need to evolve. We had a really poor recruitment drive last summer, which combined with various things going on left us looking very precarious.
When the word was out on the takeover, for me the most important aspect was if it was going to happen get it done quickly.
The time it has taken, the present structure is a fuc king shambles. It all points to things taking too long now leaving us scampering around for signings with Huw Jenkins trying to placate fans with bold statements.

Agree entirely. Even avoided calling Ledley rat boy.

Agree mate.
Outgoing board have been 'economical with the truth at the very least' whilst lining their own pockets through all of this.
The incoming Yanks are making bullsh*t statements and us fans are left with picking up the pieces and continuing to support OUR Club through thick and thin when it really has been treated with contempt by BOTH the outgoing owners and the incoming Yanks.
STID...😂😂😂.Or when it suits them , or until they get a better offer they 'can't refuse'.
Hypocrites the fuking lot of them, Jenkins & Dineen are just puppets dancing to the tune of the Yankee Doodle Dandies.
How convenient why Kaplan had to 'go back to USA on business and couldn't make the 'delayed' Press Conference it was left to Levien to face the music.Kaplan played a blinder there !!
I already get the feeling that I don't trust these b*stards as far as I can throw them.
For all those looking at 9/11 Conspiracy Theories etc just get to grips with the one that's happening right in front of our faces here in Swansea....
The Euros have screwed up the 'get the business done early' idea for most clubs, including us. Let's see where we are on 1st Sept.
Honestly we should have done our business before the season starts. I know it doesn't always happen, but if we know who we want then it doesn't take weeks and weeks.
