    Amat and Baston are both good enough for the Championship, but I am told that Amat wants to stay in Spain, and Baston really didn't travel well to Wales, and I see him staying in Spain also, as Potter has stated, we only want players that want to be here!!...... <ok>

    PS: If I remember right, I'm sure Baston made waves about staying at Malaga CF, back last year, when he also stated that Bob Bradley drove the players mad, and no one in the team new what he wanted?.........<laugh>

    We will be fighting a relegation battle again and will go down again the way things are looking.....I wont have an ounce of sympathy because it will be self inflicted.....There are a lot of much bigger and better clubs than us in the championship and they will put us in our place in no time. Be prepared for a lot of high scores against us this coming season.....

    Guess he’s not coming then .....

    Sky Sports:

    “Watford have agreed a fee with Ostersunds for midfielder Ken Sema, according to Sky sources.

    The 24-year-old midfielder has spent his entire career with the Swedish side and has made 66 appearances for the club in all competitions, scoring nine times.

    Sema will undergo a medical with Watford and discuss personal terms in the coming days.”

    I am not surprised, even if we had wanted him, knobhead Jenkins would have gone in so low we would have been told to **** off and then we would have waited till the last day. We are a club falling apart I fear.

    Not even with his ex manager here can we attract any players if someone else comes in for them.......We are the minnows of this league now with no ambition to get back to the premiership......We have promoted a number of players from the U23's and that is the likely way we will go from here on in......We wont ever play top flight for years and probably never again as we head towards Div1, Div2 and non league......

    I have to sat this is what I fear, but if it gets rid of a few at the top, then maybe it is worth it.,

    Seems that Bony, Clucas, Fer, Mawson and Olsson will not be available for the start of the Championship season.. ‬

    It’s lucky we’ve signed so many talented players ..,,. <whistle>

    I mentioned this last year that i dont think these yanks care to much with the playing side of things even if we go down towards non league football.....They will still make a lot of money and can sell the club if and when they get bored. I hope i am not right about this but the more i give them support the less i am impressed with their actions....

    depends on the previous state of the glass, a previously full glass will be half empty, a previously empty glass will be half full.

    Personally I'm looking forwards to seeing how Potter does, I think he's a good fit for Swansea

    Am I reading this wrong or does it seem that Potter has already resigned himself that we will not be spending anything on players and will be trying to sign scraps at the end of the window. I ****ing hate our board with a passion and they are slowly sucking the life blood out of our club and the fans. I cant wait for them to leave our club, sooner rather than later. Yank pricks. I hope the three of them rot in hell.

    I've resigned myself that there wont be any significant signings, same old transfer window for us. Then to panic buy in January as per usual.

    I hope I'm wrong and they shock me with some goods buys.
