    It is money orientated now where everyone is far too greedy...

    It is a short career, so some players will want out and we will want to reduce the wage bill so it will work for us too. Some of the other players let us down and the question is do you want them taking up a space at Swansea or us getting rid?
    I will be more interested in how we use the money and who we get in.

    "I'm excited by the project going on here and I can't wait to get going," said Mawson.

    "The football being played last season was lovely on the eye but also effective and I can't wait to be a part of it.

    Players going on about loyalty kissing the badge and swearing undying love for the club its all a jike and we pay their wages!

    He may have been pushed just like Andre Ayew. Ayew wanted to stay here, allegedly.

    £13.5m

    Gross was £15m, but £1.5m goes to Barnsley. (Barnsley negotiated 15% of any fee above £5m)

    However, Barnsley have to pay Brentford 40% of what they receive.

    So, the £15m will be shared:

    Swans £13.5m
    Barnsley £0.9m
    Brentford £0.6m

    The price is £40m but there is a special price for today only of £15m...... <laugh>

    Taff is right they are obviously in need of money to go back to yank land, so probably offered them a one day special, at least DC UTD will have the money to pay Rooneys wages for the next few months.
