Our takeover is definitely happening, apparently. Announced next week. All people seem to know is that it is more Americans.

 

Knowing our luck, Gillette and Hicks.

 

Price?

 

220m or something like that.

 

Lerner paid 65m.

 

However, it is pretty amazing that even buying and then selling for such a higher fee, he will still have lost loads of money over that period.

 

The way we have been run has been nuts. So many expesnive, not very good players, on massive wages, walking away for nothing. Lerner's been a good one for providing the cash (till last two seasons), but has zero idea how to run a football club.

 

A fool and his money etc etc.

 

By the time he realised MON was f***ing nuts and put his foot down, it was too late.

 

Apparently, this is believed to be the conversation which caused MON to walk out.

 

MON: "I want to buy Aiden McGeady"

Lerner: "How much will it cost?"

MON: "As much as it takes"

Lerner: "Which is how much?"

MON: "As much as it takes".

 

You're fucking off your nut if you buy a football club like. Hiding to nothing.

 

I have no idea why otherwise clever men decide to do it. Fucking idiots.

Fayeds a fucking loon.

 

What he did was sell Khan a load of overpaid, undermotivated crap.

I've hardly ever seen a set of players less equipped to fight relegation than what Fulham had this season. Absolute bottlers, players over the hill and mercenaries. Coupled with no atmosphere.

the weird thing is its been obvious for years they were getting way too old squad wise and the solution was to buy more aging players.

Swansea City: Garry Monk appointed full-time manager

 

Garry Monk has been appointed Swansea City manager on a permanent basis.

Monk took over under the title of head coach from Michael Laudrup who was sacked in February.

The 35-year-old, who has guided the club to Premier League safety with two games to spare, has been given a three-year contract and will be assisted by current coach Josep Clotet.

"Garry represents all the strong values we hold so dearly as a football club," said chairman Huw Jenkins

Can't see Swansea doing so well next season.

Because having 'strong values' is what keeps clubs in the Premier League, Huw.

Hmm with Swansea it's what got them there.

 

Have to agree. The thing they've been best at is keeping a strong thread through each change of manager. Good luck to them if they trust Monk and he understands their philosophy IMO.
