Letter received from the legend Frankie Burrows 26th November 1993 01:00 - Oct 31 with 3838 views_

Talking about the infamous letter Mrs Monk received i mentioned one I'd sent the legend Frankie Burrows 21 years ago next month.

This was his reply that got my total respect and to shut up a mad, young Swans fan ;-)

Dear Mr T2C

Thank you for your letter, and if I can answer your questions I will try.

You talk about the playing system of one central striker with two wide strikers, when this is working well all three strikers should have plenty of movement and goal chances.

This club is losing £5,000 a week and part of my job is to raise money to help Mr Sharpe keep Swans in a financially stable position. This means I have to develop the youth policy and also try and sell at a profit so that you can have a football club to support.

In Mr Sharpe's case, he must have put hundreds of thousands of pounds of his money to keep the Swans going.

So I find your criticism about Mr Sharpe and myself lacking the ambition to get out of Division 1 totally wrong and you are out of order in saying so.

This week I have had talks with Ron Donovan, Peter Storer, Craig Marshall and Ian Brogie. At this moment in time I don't have any money to bring players in unless I sell another player and I don't really want to sell anymore young players at this stage.

So I will be trying to bring loan players in like Warren Aspinall, but the wage that Warren gets is so way out of our league money wise.

I don't answer all my letters because I have no short hand typist here at the club and as you can see i have to write it myself and as my writing is not that good anyway you will spend the rest of the week trying to read it.

This is private information so I hope as a supporter you respect this. Thank you for your support.

Yours

Frankie Burrows

Well when I was a youth the only letters sent were to Santa and Jimmy to try to get onto his Tv programme. You seem to have taken it a step further and written to the manager of a football club. lol.

As I said previously, at that time, his conduct was not common knowledge and therefore the insinuation I am trying to link you with him in some sick way is all in your head. Another attempt to twist what;s written to cause trouble on here, to suit your agenda.

You knew exactly what you were insinuating by even mentioning a vile, disgusting paedophile in some sort of sick jibe. You'd think you of all people would know better.

Sadly yes. T2C sends them to me every time I post on here for some reason. As I posted last night, this place is not worth the hassle any more when people like this are able to get away with this sort of thing.

There are other Swans sites, mind.

One of which has a snazzy new chat feature where you can talk to your hearts content as a guest without the need to log in.

How great is that?

Do you condone making sick jibes about paedophiles, Darran? Is that what you're about also?

I thought that was a bit sick but typical of him. Actually, you also, the way you two round up on posters. Horrible.
