Thread | Williams is fully engaged in transfers.
at 19:12 12 Dec 2024
Luke Williams gave a very assured press conference today. Amongst the obligatory love ins for Grimes and Cullen he a made some good noises on the January transfer window.
This window has seen the last three managers go into a sulk and start questioning what they are doing in this city.
Potter called off sick after not getting £7m Ryan Woods. Cooper was openly dismissive of Arriola and Morris. Martin was furious after the January non event and the non completion of the WBA winger.
Williams says he is involved and "does not want to be the type of manager who throws his toys out of the pram" if things do not go entirely to plan".
It should be noted the recruitment knows he will not select player he does not rate. (Njoe an On, Kuharevych Abbey and to s lesser extent Pederson).

Houses are like roads. The more you build the more you need. Once there is sufficient affordable housing they will immediately be more people to take them. There will never be enough affordable housing. |

Food banks are not a bad thing in my view. If we are a generally a generous religious people then those of faith and others are obliged to share what excesses they have with those that cannot earn sufficiently to eat well.
No one in this country needs go without food..
I think it is not the job of the Government to keep everyone fed.
Comments like "how can we consider ourselves a civilised
country while people are homeless" does not seem reasonable to me at all.
Let the independent sector pick up those fallen on hard times. Voluntary work is healthy. I am a litter picker myself. I do about 3 hours a week. |

He put me on a final warning which of course I respect. I got a bit concerned when the site owner told him or her. "You have the keys to the shop are are in charge". |

I am allowed to call people behaving is a disrespectful / illegal way morons. It is an honest opinion. It is a reaction to their behaviour.
The illegal chanting from the Swansea end is slurring innocent people going about their daily business including taxpayers |

I am surprised he did not take on the Newport job. I recall reports that he was in the frame. The current manager was employed as a coach and then promoted to manager.
Two huge lads up top and not much sign of Swansea way so far according to fans. |

I am a Welsh person and generally kind and considerate. I call out uncivilised aggressive and sometimes illegal chants from wherever it come.
I am Welsh and do not accept anti welsh slurs of anyone including Welsh people. Welsh people who do this are lacking self respect and define themselves from English slurs.
I find it particular bad when they sing these sick chants on foreign soil like the Qatar World cup where they are ambassadors for our struggling country desperately needing investment.
While answering your quires have to take into account the warnings of Moderator D. Remember the chanting you seem to support cannot be discussed on here because they are deemed be too disgusting for this forum and its causes. |

If Williams likes MPH and sees his development it might be worth a punt in the transfer market. He is of the right age and physical. At his age he can be moulded into the Swansea way and improved.
Brentford will not have been impressed with his Portsmouth spell and they moved on another past Swansea loan player Finn Stevens to France I think quite cheaply. Finn is highly thought of in the Welsh u21 set up as Captain. |

Some reports suggest he had had enough of supporter abuse. It cannot be easy taken hostile abuse of a regular basis from morons from home and away. |

Paterson was bombed out of Charlotte FC it seems after only playing a handful of games. What happened? You would think w he would have been extremely focused in a new land |

He played his best football under Martin and at Swansea. Players when in this situation should not rock the boat and concentrate on performance.. He was starting to deliver and was a a steep upward trajectory. The benefits naturally follow on from this.
Rocking the boat mid season for a January move oftem messes teams around. |

Abdullai is a great prospect being played out of position. I have seen him 10 times or so and he was a standout evey time. It would be criminal if Williams fails to develop him.
Sam Parker looks a tremendous prospect and happily like Govea he has signed a long deal.
Cat one costs a reported £5m a year and few Championship team s can afford this. Where is the money coming from?
Cat 1 means big team cannot poach your players so easily but Swansea seem to be tying up their kids reasonably well. Iwan Morgan was one of he few that have left.
I forgot about Lissah would was primed to join the first team but is injured. |

24-25 yo. Cabango. Cullen Ollie Cooper First team
21-22 Congreve, Josh Thomas, Cotterill On loan two doing oK
19-21. Abdullai first team
19-21. Kyrrel Wilson Mitchell Bates ? fringes of first team
17-19. Govea, Sam Parker made debut and performed well under long contracts
17-18 Nzingo Woodward Henau, Watts, Bates, jnr Art Parker, two other guys linked with Arsenal and Man City. If Swansea can keep hold of their players and not get rinsed by the big guns they will do OK

There is no indication he is an addict. If I was in a public position I would be very careful about getting intoxicated or talking too much under the influence. Cocaine is something I am not interested in.
I liked when my rugby refs would said scrum down "Blue" not mention the team. |

If you assume that to a certain extent that Williams is cut from the same cloth as Martin then. we are in year four of the possession of ame with defenders cool on the ball and building up from the back. In his football career that is pretty much all Cabango and Darling have played.
Swansea must sign up one or both of these players. Three seasons of development work has been put into them. |

The club has become stale and needs a new broome. SwansTV and the commentary on games typifies this staleness.
Swansea TV is in the entertainment business. I gave customer feedback.
Back in 2006 another forum focussing on the Swans had one poll called "Jacketts's Hatchet" where you would put an axe on the pictures of the squad who yiu thought should be moved on. The likes of Garry Monk Tate and Kristian O'Leary.
You probably found it too tough back then.

I cannot comment on the animal slurs according to moderator D as it affects the charity. |
