  1. Rumours beginning to circulate that our Bob has gone, should never have been appointed. If it's true I'm still not happy as the brain dead that brought him in will no doubt have another unpleasant suprise for us.
  2. That's because we were sold out to clueless American's in the first place. Bought the club because of the Premiership money, not to build a winning team.
  3. The biggest mistake was not going for Joey, he wanted to come back we didn;t even bid, thats the reason Williams left, he even said he would during the Euro's if we didn't sign him.
  4. and yes Bradley hasn't a clue, I think headless chicken is the most common description on our board. Not a clue. Before this year we always picked up some unexpected results against bigger teams simply by the way we played, nowadays we give the games away without a wimper.
  5. Bradley looks absolutely hopeless for you's. Awful tactics today to allow Man Utd so much time on the ball. The board who were heroes for so many years sold us down the river this year, took the silver and screwed us. Everything we were known for has gone.
  6. Looks like we won't be playing Newcastle again for some time
  7. I'd say two/three month is trigger happy considering their form from the beginning of his reign. From a swansea fan I know, they were bad from February last year onwards minus a good start to last season. From another Swansea fan (this one) that's a load of nonsense, we played some of the best football towards the end of the season, including 4-1 away to West Ham and 3-1 at home to Liverpool.
  8. This is the result of selling to a group of know nothing Americans. Guidolin had the full support of the Swansea fans everyone could see that he was screwed from the decisions made by the new board over the summer and felt the team had played well this season, only the Hull game was a shock the rest could be expected, a very hard start to the season. As can be seen by our messageboard, very little to no support for this action. http://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/football/swanseacity/forum/180140/page:1#.V_JaOSgrLIU Looks like our flirt with the Premiership will end this season. Hope we can stop a slide like the 1980's.
  9. Who'd have thought, a ref giving an extremely soft, no way in hell, penalty
  10. 1-1 half time for Swansea, best I've seen us play all season although saying that, Man City showing why they are top and had the better half.
  11. No chance Swansea going down mate, those who know nothing about our team make too much about Ayew and Williams leaving.
  12. Borja Baston at last http://www.swanseacity.net/news/article/2016-17/swansea-city-record-signing-atletico-madrid-borja-baston-3239835.aspx?utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=SocialSignIn&utm_source=Facebook Rumours of Ryan Shawcross now, not at the money that goes with the rumour though.
  13. Wow, unheard of things, Swansea about to break their transfer record with a 15 million striker and at the same time a reported 17 million turned down for another striker, Islam Slimani http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11731/10530144/swansea-bid-for-islam-slimani-rejected-by-sporting-lisbon-8211-sky-sources?
  14. My guess Amat, he is a good defender and we're lucky he's still here with Williams and Fernandez keeping him out, his chance to shine. VdH has looked decent as competition and we have a highly rated younster Joe Rodon coming through.
  15. Without taking agents fees in hand and assuming the Borga Baston deal goes through as stated for 15M then Swansea would have made 42M on sales and paid out 22M for new players. Against the flow at the moment it seems.
  16. Nothing we could do if the story that he's doubling his wage (120K being bandied about). The money turned his head and he wanted to go, all in a very short time. Suprised they allowed him to complete before signing his replacement, who we've been told for a few days now is imminent.
  17. This will be Mo Barrow's year, if he lives up to his expectation we'll be lucky to keep him after this year.
  18. Looks like a Spanish front two for us with Borja and Llorente.
  19. Wonder if he's the John Stones replacement? Agreed. Makes you wonder what Wenger is playing at. Crying out for a solid centre half to go with koscielny and he misses a great chance. Guaranteed they won't make the signings they have needed for years now 10m is a very good deal for Everton: Arsenal should be all over this deal A lot of Swansea fans getting worried now, at the start of the transfer window we were supposed to be after Bony, we sold Eder (never seemed to fit in when he played) and Polaschi (big suprise), then nothing happened. Then it seemed we were waiting until after the Euro's (could have got Joe Allen prior for about 10 mill, its the one signing the fans were desperate for). In the background the uncertainty of an American takeover that had been rumbling on for months. Joe plays extremely well in the Euro's and one of the Swansea Welsh players is runoured to have said that he wold be off if we didn't sign Joe. The American take-over finally happens and after that we fail to make a bid and Joe signs for Stoke and whoa and behold Williams looks to be off, we loan out our last remaining striker and pay a large chunk of his wages (about 22K a week I believe) and still no sign of any strikers being. Ayew, who's not really a striker but is still our only regular goalscorer is now a target for West Ham, who raised their offer to what allegedly was the asking price! The start of the season is looming and it appears from the friendlies that Routledge will be the main scorer. Its not all bad as the friendly results appear to show we still have a team that can win, but these new American investors so far don't look live they intend to deliver investment on the team. Worrying times.
  20. We should have played like this against England, I think they played for a point and suffered for it.
  21. Swansea agreed a fee with Atlanta to sell Paloschi, the player making his mind up if he wants to go. Odd one, only arrived in January, the majority of fans have high regard for him and a 2 million loss.
