Cabango and Darling. There is no money. Try logic.
at 19:37 27 Sep 2024

Coleman has a problem. Both Cabango and Darling and Cullen want to stay but there is not enough money around the new cost conscious club.

It appears to me all can stay until the end of the season but there could be bids in The January.

It makes sense to sell one and pay the other two what they want or let Cabango and Cullen walk at the end of the season and pay Darling.

A tricky one for the chairman. I stand to be corrected but both Cullen and Cabango will bring in development fees for the club whereas Darling would not.

If all three cannot be kept happy financially perhaps then it would be better to keep Darling happy and let the local lads walk.

On the other hand Darling would most likely draw a fee in The January to pay the pay rises of the other two. I confess I do not know what the s development fees would be. Swansea has to pay for Key.

Chelase and Man City have been forced to sell the family silver local lads in preference to transfered in players as they are logged as total profit in accountancy terms. A similar outcome for a different model perhaps. ,(Cole Palmer and Connor Gallagher sold way too cheap)

Rushworth not first choice at Hull
at 00:13 21 Sep 2024

Of course we are not long into the season but Carl Rushworth is not first choice at Hull city. One wonders what Brighton were thinking in sending him there instead of Swansea where he would certainly been playing every week.

Al these clubs have highly paid operators but many do not get what they expect or an understanding of how thing should pan out.

Swansea were forced to act out of the Brighton people dithering over this matter. Having said that Premier league clubs do not concern themselves over the needs of Championship clubs

No one really wants these games. They are a jolly for the ruling elite and funded by the ratepayers.

Unless it comes to Swansea and a tram line to Mumbles and redevelopment of St Helens part of the deal. Levelling up and all that

Bristol airport - only if you really have to.

Drop off charges are anti British.

We work on the understanding that firms provide a service and take a fee. At Bristol they create an artificial deliberate traffic jam to slow down passengers long enough to fleece them of £6. This is not a service.

Joel Cotterill makes big statement
at 15:36 11 Sep 2024

https://nation.cymru/sport/watch-joel-cotterill-bags-brace-as-wales-under-21s-be

Back in 2017 or so Huw Jenkins thinking of the future invested a healthy sum of Premier League money to send Swansea u14 to Los Angeles for an International tournament.

The "sell out" was investing in the long term. Amongst the kids were Cotterill Congreve Bony G, and Ludvigsen. Bony went to France last year and sadly Ludvigsen was released at the end of last season and plays for Penybont.

Cotterill is now looking to press on with a strong dominant performance on a hostile foreign soil. He is still only 19. Strong show from Josh Thomas as well.

Congreve is with Josh at Bromley. Lloyd a bit younger and Evan Watts are talented boys who need to follow Joel's example and grab their chances and emerge from the anonymity of the underage game.

He got an awful lot of patience at Swansea from the owners who wanted to give him even more time with a new deal.

He was not happy with them and jumped into a place where there is no patience at all.

Things go wrong when you relax.
at 15:55 22 Aug 2024

Mike Lynch established and sold one of UK s top tech companies to Hewlett Packard a few years back. A whopping $11 billion cost.

Afterwards HP complained they did not get what they expected. People in the business tell me that the movers and shakers in big companies do not always know their onions. The business was data collection and processing.

They took Lynch and his no 2 to court and last month lost their case in the USA. Lynch it seems drowned and his number 2 died in a road accident over the last week or so.

The sailing community do not understand how the ship sank.

Bianchini looks like a permanent.
at 13:19 22 Aug 2024

Trawling the internet suggests this signing is a permanent one. Other sites suggest a loan perhaps with obligation to buy. Swansea do not do these obligation deals much. They can I assumed lead to players being frozen out of it is dependent on appearances.

I assumed Abbey is homesick and looking for a permanent move back to UK.. All speculation.

I am very happy with the recruitment. Back to the ways of 2009.Up and coming players of talent

Why do Swansea want Rushworth?
at 13:13 16 Aug 2024

In my opinion Swansea have more important priorities than having to pay big money developing Premier league footballers for Brighton and the England National team.

Swansea did not get any benefit from Guehi and Gallagher because they failed and revenue from Wembley was small as it was during COVID.

The money should be invested in a development talent who Swansea can buy and develop. It would be a kick in the teeth for Vigareaux.

Deinstitualization over the last 50+ years
at 22:35 12 Aug 2024

Stabbings occurred again today. Some narratives have linked these horrible crimes to immigration after the event in Glasgow a year or two ago and to the Private Rigby murder by two Africans.

Other more common events have occurred by mentally unstable people of all races and origins, This is linked to the closing of Mental asylums and the move to "Deinstitualization".

I am not an expert but I suspect these crimes are more related to the closing of the asylums rather than immigration. The asylums were finally closed in the era of Mrs Thatcher. I actually remember it.

"Deinstitutionalization is the process of replacing long-stay psychiatric hospitals with community-based mental health services for people with mental disorders or developmental disabilities. The goal is to reduce the number of beds in mental hospitals and provide more integrated care within the general healthcare system. Deinstitutionalization can also involve reforming mental hospitals to reduce dependency, hopelessness, and other maladaptive behavior".

"The most important factors that led to deinstitutionalization were changing public attitudes to mental health and mental hospitals, the introduction of psychiatric drugs and individual states' desires to reduce costs from mental hospitals". (USA)

Spare cash -Another Museum is what we want?
at 16:07 8 Aug 2024

Coal mine = create wealth jobs and money.

Museum = gobbles up cash and closes within 5 years due to a lack of ongoing funding.

I love John Charles s history but no interest in seeing his shirt.

Welsh prospects are miles behind Denmark Croatia and Iceland . Swansea underage games were postponed from a mild freeze.
Funding something as useless as this is not my cup of tea.
