When Swansea buy a player and he flops they get an haircut. Man city and Villa get their money back and fulfill their FFP requirements.

El Ghazi linked to Cardiff with Pro Palestine views.
at 14:15 30 Jul 2024

https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/cardiff-city-talks-si

In my opinion he was harshly treated by Maintz.

He could do well at Cardiff with the owner manager and chairman presumably of the same faith.

The Israelis have criminalised a common sense solution to their problems.

It is not difficult to create a Palestine " from the river to the sea" without splitting Israel into two.

Any Palestine would need a port which is Gaza. This would be linked to the West Bank within a narrow corridor with service areas or small linear villages ( subject to negiocation) . The Israeli roads crossing would be in short secure tunnels.

The alternative preferred by Israelis would be a tunnel from Welsh Bank to Gaza.

Both would fit the "River to the Sea" words which are in no way provocative. It is a simple request and easily achieved.

The only issue is the safety of the illegal Israeli settlers in the West Bank. Palestinian must bite the bullet that UK citizens have done. We have not repatriated many of our "illegals".

El Ghazi should be allowed free speech in Wales if he comes.

What type of centre forward do Swansea need?
at 15:35 28 Jul 2024

Swansea have a big lad up top already and he was not used. Was this for tactical or discipline/ commitment reasons? This has not been explored.

Sidebeh looks short strong and fast and may be able to convert crosses that in house players cannot.

The other alternative is a specialist aerial player like Llorente was. He was good enough to put Liverpool on the backside in a passing team. Mykola could be that player.

A player who can run play with his feet and athletic is Sory Kaba considered by a number of Championship clubs. Mobile athletic and powerful. A player like this I would like to see.

Barry Town v Swansea u21
at 15:37 27 Jul 2024

HT and Swans 1-0 up. Iestyn Jones

Swansea playing some nice football with good tempo. No information on players. Margetson in goal got away with passing to a player not paying attention. Dabrowski is a feisty tough guy amongst the Barry tough nut. Some good midfield players possibly Bates and Woodward.

Who is actually in Austria?
at 20:07 23 Jul 2024

I looked on the internet and got the squad list from the Graham Potter trip. Information is very scarce these days. Were the following players on the trip?

Pedersen
Ntoe an On
Kukharevych
Broome.

Mykola did not feature v Bristol Rovers after scoring v Swindon.

Are the following now first team squad and in Austria?

Josh Thomas
Evan Watts
Dan Watts
Lissah
Wilson
Cotterill
Congreve
Liam Smith

Smith featured in recent u21 games. What is the logic of this. Is he going out on loan?

Information is welcome.

For me no. If French players started signing about Keifer Moore' parents being born in England I would not be bothered at all. Perhaps Cascarino is self conscious? .

Sulking entitled footballers
at 13:43 16 Jul 2024

The England players again disrespect the tournament. They were second best because Spain were the better team.

This is sport. You come first second or last.

Respect the organisers and the medals they give you. Arrogant jerks. Love your medal and go one better next time. It is silver. It is what you deserve. They fly home like criminals in an unmarked plane. Pathetic.

Hot news. Marg is back!
at 19:30 15 Jul 2024

The England hero s arrived back at Stansted this morning and I can confirm the squad included Swansea's GK coach. See video below.

Strangely the Airbus 320 had no British Airways livery or any other commercial airline livery.

"Hello Dave can you send the Airbus to Berlin Brandenburg ready for a 10am flight to Stansted Monday".

"British Airways or one of those Rwanda ones, Chris".

"Make it 'a Rwanda' Dave. Cheers".

"Here are some of the back room staff who get so little recognition. "Some full bodied bloke next to Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink" .

Football and far right politics Turkiye.
at 15:23 3 Jul 2024

Merih Demiral lost all control on Tuesday and after scoring made what most liberal Europeans regard as far right hand symbol. Cenk Tosun was warned for making the same political hand gesture while at Everton. He claimed it was not deliberate.

The second photo sees him making the Wolf hand gesture and is related to the MHP (Nationalist People's Party) in Turkiye. Their flag is three crescents on the normal flag. He was making a political statement of support to a political movement. Football let the cat out of the bag somewhat with the BLM fiasco which saw players do the 'black fist' for example.

This is a challenge to Kurdish and other Anatolian peoples and traditionally Turks consider all Kurds to be Turkish. He was agitating. They may now be tempted to react. Turkish speakers in UK come in three main groups Turks Kurds and Cypriots.

The BBC in the turkish languages represent all British people as English. 'İngiltere' and 'İngiliz' . I correct them every day after breakfast.

Maliq Cadogan out on loan.
at 13:16 3 Jul 2024

Talented player Maliq but probably not hard a tough enough at 19 to cut it at present. Fast skillful now the time to add beef and a bit more aggression perhaps? When Swansea lost to Sheffield utd in the final they were a little underpowered.

The club have learned perhaps to get these guys out the door early for pre season training with the new club. If they leave it to after pre season the youngsters will need to change the managers perception of his first. 11.

Swansea / Erick / Jason / Oxford / Indonesian links.
at 13:26 28 Jun 2024

Nathan Ntoe A On was persuaded by Erick Thohir to sign for the Indonesian national team.

Erick was an Indonesian Minister in the Government and has sporting investments with DC United and is presumably friendly with Jason Levien. He one time owned Inter Milan.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erick_Thohir

He now owns Oxford Utd with a partner. Nathan may be heading there on loan or permanently so they, instead of Swansea, can benefit from the 280m Indonesian population who love football.

Swansea now have a high powered management team. Why are they not doing this?
