No pictures or quotes to back it up but 'I know someone who is very friendly with Ash's family' & she has heard that Everton have offered to almost double his wages' & he sees it as his last significant contract - he has been looking at property up in the North West.
I guess we could offer him more money to stay but suspect if Everton get anywhere near £12M+ we'll move on - assuming Fed's fit looks like him & Amat to me @ Burnley.

Gabriel just got what looks to be a bad injury for Arsenal. I can honestly see them stumping up the cash for Williams now. It's an emergency situation for them, they literally have no one else.

Hate to do this on here aswell, but maysaswell share it.
I was told today by someone who is best mates with a senior member of welsh squad, won't say who it is, but he isn't one of the Swansea lads, he said he told him Ash is 100% leaving.

Until it gets to 110% then there is always a chance he'll stay.

I hope you asked about him leaving ?
I spotted him on the gokarts with his little lad while I was queuing with my kids. I didn't want to intrude on him having a day out with his family, not exactly a conducive situation for a proper conversation - however as he was walking past us on his way out I did briefly wish him good luck if he was leaving, to which he uttered the immortal reply, "Thanks".

4 pages on someone's friend of a friend told me rubbish...Some more humble pie to be dished out soon when the transfer window shuts. Wouldn't blame any player wanting to leave if this is how so called supporters think of them
Most appear to think he’s entitled to leave (if he wants to) if another club pays our valuation and that we should not increase his wages yet again, in an attempt to make him stay. Not sure what is wrong with that view.

Moralee's a phucker, I know it's his job to get the best for his player but not every year If I was HJ I just wouldn't deal with you again whatever player you have

So he's really waiting for the green light off Everton to pay us a couple of million more than they offered last Monday which we rejected on Tuesday.
What are Everton waiting for?
It would serve them right if Arsenal offer the right money first.
I joined up on here a few months back when there were rumours re. Naismith joining you guys.
I'm rarely 'ITK' on much - but one of my colleagues (and it's our job to get stuff like this right) has very good contacts at Swansea - he's a fan incidentally.
The situation is this, as far as the info he has received:
- Monday last week a deal was agreed in principle between the two clubs. Hence the reports from the local press in South Wales on Monday evening.
- EFC opened talks with Williams and by Tuesday the deal with the player was agreed.
- Tuesday afternoon/evening Swansea moved the goalposts on the initial fee and wanted more money (I'm not sure on the figures - he didn't have the info). Common consensus is that the initial offer on Monday was between £8m and £10m, so I imagine it was either more money needed up front or more in total. Btw, I also want to stress that no EFC fan is begrudging Swansea on this. It's business. The only snidey thing really was doing it publicly (the articles on Tuesday evening) but it happens and is understandable.
- The wording of said statement ('offer currently on the table') obviously left the deal open. EFC returned with an improved bid Wednesday.
- The last I heard (which was yesterday) is that Swansea are happy with that fee. No messing about on EFC's part, just business from both clubs. This agreement may have been in place late last week. Things may have changed but as of the latest info (from the Swansea side, I personally have no contacts w/Everton) this is either done or looking very likely to be finalised.
Just wanted to put that on here. It's got nothing to do with EFC attempting to short change Swansea.
Not sure of any Arsenal links. Nothing's been said though obviously with the injury to Gabriel things may change. Williams very happy with the EFC offer though.
