Strange how there was so much harmony and debate when he left then the board turned to ****e as soon as he returned Insults and snide comments are what he likes to trade in, and of course complete fabrication and twisting of pepoles words
Clearly lost the plot here, who's talking about Managers? we are talking about poor player signings, nobody is giving it big, we all get things right and wrong, but casual was incorrect, when he said it was Hindsight, now you are moving the goal posts and referencing my disappointment when we signed Rodgers, which I got wrong, but let's be honest he was way down the list at the time, but has subsequently been one of the best signings to date, why some on here need to score points is beyond me, I don't normally bother anymore with this, but felt the urge to correct a few misconceptions, no worries though, chill and have a nice day Aussie!...............
you will be surprised on the amount of money that has to be spent on a daily basis just to compete in the premiership. it goes into millions of pounds and a ball has not been kicked......
What have we spent millions of pounds on today then? And as far as Knackeredjack goes, he has the knack of drilling down to the crux of most arguments and coming out with a sensible opinion as a result which makes him one of my favourite posters. [My fee of £100 can be paid into my Swiss bank account ]
Aussie rules !! ...... P.S. You have to have some sort of debt to be ambitious , heard it somewhere along the way
I knew I had a fan club out there somewhere. Maybe Dai can be Chairman (how ironic), Noway can be Secretary (complete with nail file and lipstick) and DPJ can be (yes it has to be) the tea lady.
What have we spent millions of pounds on today then? aswan ..this is what mean when i say most fans dont understand how a football club is run. you think it all starts and ends on match days.........believe me there is a lot more running costs than that....
At the risk of this turning into a bit of a lovein I'm also a fan of Knackered's posts. He usually does post sensible posts and get's to the bottom of arguments and usually reaches a sensible conclusion.
I fully take your point that running a football club costs a huge amount of money but I doubt that Swansea City costs millions of pounds a day to keep running. Players wages could be £100,000 a day, plus the back-room staff, admin staff, travel, hotel costs, training facilities etc etc etc. I felt you had overestimated for effect. Or am I missing something huge in the figures?
Noway: Where's your fan club? Having a meeting in a telephone box? No aswan, it's not you that's missing something...
I'd be worried if you got references from normal posters Knakered Aussie, but from aswan, well say no more!............ On a serious not, though Aussie, my only observation is that, when you lose your argument, and you do, you resort to getting personal, as you have done with Norway, but then you always complain about that, when it is aimed at you, If I can see this, then I'm sure many others have too, that read these forums. And while your posts as aswan has stated do get, quite often too the heart of the matter, you seem to be very reticent, in having them challenged, what we all have to remember is that these boards are merely views and opinions, and for them to succeed, there must be mutual respect accorded to all, which clearly currently you are having great difficulty with, in regard to Norway, and Dai, Light hearted banter and humour is one thing, but getting into personal attacks really does invalidate your point of view. As for Norway I'm sure he too has a fan club, and is always objective, and respectful of other posters on here, something you could well emulate, in my view! Just an observation....................... please log in to view this image
DPJ, you'll be pleased to know that you're also one of my favourite posters - in a 'jolly uncle' sort of way.
million pounds a day ?????? where did i say that ......you read it wrong but it does cost a few million a year on things that you or i would not think about.
You will be surprised on the amount of money that has to be spent on a DAILY basis just to compete in the premiership. IT (presumably you're still referring to the amount of money that has to be spent on a DAILY basis) goes into millions of pounds............ I think that was where you said it would cost millions of pounds a day. Or am I wrong??
...... aswan on a serious but positive note, positive being the buzz word lately, it's my view that our Swansea board is not only growing, but has some of the best bunch of posters of any forum, and the balance can only be kept if we learn to respect each other, and Aussie and Norway are both top posters, who in my view should be setting the standard, rather than fighting, and I hope, that they both will move on and get on, for the benefit of this Swansea city forum, we have had quite a number of new poster over the last 6 months or so, and long may that continue, but infighting is counter productive, and we need to realise that, you are one of my favourite posters too aswan!.....
aswan are you too young to understand what i mean???just asking as what grown up would think i said or mean millions a day.........it dont make sense.....
I can only read what you type. If you mean something completely different from what you say, then what chance have I got?
Don't really want to get into this again, but I think you'll find Noway called me 'Aussietwat' recently. Possibly on this thread. Can't be bothered to look. It's noticeable you've picked me up on personal insults but not others. No surprise. Oh, and I make no apology for having constant dig at Daiswan. Most on here find his constant and vitriolic attacks against Jenkins rather offensive. I like to treat him as a lead member of this forum's lunatic fringe. If I took him seriously then I really would get angry. Your overt encouragement of this person makes things a lot worse.
