Whittaker taken out of squad today on 12:07 - Jan 21 by Dr_Winston | It's almost as if the players aren't the problem. |
Absolutely. Recalling a player who wanted to stay at Plymouth, who the manager wanted to stay at Plymouth, who still has two and a half years on his contract and who’s value has increased substantially in the past six months is short termism at it’s finest. Unless we’re absolutely desperate for the funds now, his value and/or potential to play in our first team would only have increased by the start of next season. But let’s blame Russell Martin. Just like we did with consumate professional Michael Obafemi. | | | |

I think it’s obvious it was always in the plan to try and get rid of Morgan this month or in the summer. To avoid being unprofessional and subjecting him to the distraction of a transfer whilst at Plymouth the club rightly brought him back. For me, they weren’t that transparent about that, if Morgan had stayed at Plymouth they would complain his mind isn’t on his game, as would the fans and they would blame Swansea. The club brought him back and still got shit from Plymouth fans, and in any event their opinion hardly matters. But it happened. For the player and for Swansea having him at Fairwood was a much better option than at Plymouth. The club played a blinder yesterday stating he was in the squad, and Rangers have either bitten or more contact has been made. The club want 2.5 million, they will get it, that’s what they value him at and rightly so. Be that this month or in January. | |

He is under contract to 2025. He cannot play for anyone else until then. He will be 25 then. | |

He can play for us this season or any other 1 club. He can then play for 2 clubs per season. Don't see where you get can't play for anyone else until 2025 | | | |

You think? Accepting the possibilities of injury or massive loss in form, I think his value would only have increased playing where he was happy and productive. If Rangers had met our valuation this month while playing for Plymouth, so what? It’s only then that suffer and no more than they did with the recall. Pre-season with us, with an eye to selling him while he’s hot, with the backup of being able to play him if someone comes in for Piroe sounds eminently sensible. Unless of course, we are that desperate for funds. If we’re relying on selling a player who we’d have made a loss on at the start of the season, that’s a real worry. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

"Unless of course, we are that desperate for funds. If we’re relying on selling a player who we’d have made a loss on at the start of the season, that’s a real worry." To cover the loss we will make on selling Obafemi now compared to last summer? | | | |

Possibly, but I’m talking about selling him at the end of the season (or selling Piroe) after a full season at Plymouth. It’s only a few months away. I’d have thought however much we’ve already had of the Downes money would take the pressure off? | | | |

Where he plays up to 2025 is the decision of Swansea city. No one else. | |

Where he plays up to 2025 is the decision of Swansea city. No one else. He is under contract and in no position to blackmail the club. Why does he not want to play for Swansea? It is obvious to me. The reason is that Martin does not rate him. Martin not only does not rate him but told the world he does not rate him. Martin told the world he was not bothered if he came back or not and at that time rated Cullen and Fulton higher than him. The player knows he cannot progress under Martin. Rangers are being advised he is the next "Rihad Mahrez". If that is true than Martin needs to be sacked this afternoon. Jamal Lowe was not rated either. A goal and hit the cross bar. Swansea after 65 mins not a shot on target. Liam Cullen tries his best. [Post edited 21 Jan 2023 16:35]

Because if he plays for us he can’t go to Rangers. Could it be any more obvious? I don’t blame him at all. | | | |

Even mainstays like Manning and Latibeaudiere are dragging their feet over staying put. | |

His situation is unique though isn’t it. He’s got a massive club, albeit in a minor league, chasing him. One minute for us and he can’t go. I’d guess most would feel the same in his shoes. | | | |

Been the standout player for the last few months and that alone deserves rewarding off him 15k if he sticks his two fingers up to that then, Its thankyou for your efforts Ryan and best of luck with the rest of your career. Huw Jenkins and his vipers decision to sell the club was because they had the resources to sustain SCFC through troubled waters should they arise, utter arse dribble, where's the yanks mouth piece Silverball these days? | |
