I'm basing it on a few sources, not all emanating from Swansea.
What are you basing your opinion that there was no contract on?
Faith?
Joe Allen tells Swans he wants to join LFC.

If there was a contract, surely Liverpool wouldn't be able to attain Allen due to Rodgers being his previous manager, even if there is a release clause.
The burden of proof isn't for me to prove there is no contract, it falls on you to prove there is one.
The board of directors at my club are doing the best job in the whole of English football, possibly World football....which is why we manage to take the Yank twats at your club to the cleaners.
Go away and meditate on what a prize dipshit you are.
What a bellend, "taken to the cleaners" how so? Because we paid £15m for your best player. Swansea soon to be circling the drain to the Championship.
Have we got any details on this yet?
Edit:Just read the rest of the thread and as I thought timidtwat has no clue whatsoever.
Well here's the thing...as we are signing JA there's either a good solid contract between the two clubs that we can't break other than with a release clause etc...in which case we are doing nothing wrong. Scenario two is that there is no real contract and HJ is just pushing all blame on to BR. Scenario 3 is that there was a contract but it isn't legally binding (gentlemans agreement) which really makes HJ a tad naïve and BR a bit of a naughty boy
Either way I get the feeling if BR wants to raid your squad again there will be ways and means for him to do it 
Now initially I really didn't want him to go and buy all your players but after a few weeks having to suffer the gnashing of teeth and crying from some of your lot...I hope he keeps buying your best players just to piss you off even more
None of us know the details of the agreement.
None of us know what BR and HJ said, or how JA was approached - if he was.
99.9% of managers take players from their former clubs or that they have worked with before.
Call the police!

If there was a "legally binding" contract that Rodgers couldn't sign Swansea players don't you think by now Jenkins would have said so and be taking legal action against Rodgers/LFC and that the FA would be on the case?
Purely conspiracy theories.

Don't be confusing the dickhead with reasoned thoughts on the matter.
Express is claiming the deal is expected to close today.

Swansea City's wage bill = £17.4 million (this included the bonuses paid out for the previous season's promotion)
Swansea's squad was assembled for £11 million
We topped the Cost Effective League Table by several country miles.
Liverpool's wage bill= about £130 million isn't it?
Liverpool's squad cost = £178 million
Position in value for money table = 18th
Yet we won 4 points out of 6 last season.
Our revenue streams are increasing dramitically Liverpool's are shrinking.
We've just sold Liverpool Brendan and Pascoe for £7 million and Allen for £15 million.
We've replaced with Laudrup for free and De Guzman (loan with option to buy at aprox. £6 million)
I consider your management to be incompetent and taken to the cleaners, don't you?
Aaaw come on TT where's the fun if we can't confuse him with reasoned thoughts??
On the 8/8/12 at 8.39 pm you posted:
Can you give me detailed analysis of the BBC's sports department, how many journalists do they employ exactly? What are their responsibilities? How do they compare with other media outlets?
If not, shut the **** up about needing hard evidence you ****ing hypocrite.
Hear that guys, Liverpool's revenue stream is shrinking...Our £20m a season sponsor contract and our £25m kit contract are gone!
Not to mention our wage bill has gone down with the departure of Maxi, Aqualani and Kuyt, I can see us being the new Rangers.

Epic swerve attempt
...But back to this contract you know so much about....I'm still waiting for the EXACT details you have all this concrete info on
I presume I probably shouldn't hold my breath...right??

The reason why you sold those players and have brought in 2 former Swans on less money is precisely because you were on the path to becoming the new Rangers.
We sold those players because Maxi wanted out, Aqualani was never really here and Kuyt was aging. For a Liverpool expert, you seem to know **** all.
Yet still to see your proof of this magical contract stating that Rodgers can't sign Swansea players.
