Unfortunately, for me, an old saying springs to mind - "It's the hope that kills you". But it's all we have right now. I hate being negative as well
The Club is owned by businessmen, and at all times they will be looking to make a profit. It's what people in business do. Why should their making a profit, by whatever legal means they see fit to adopt, be questioned ?
The Americans are entitled to do what they like and rightly so......They are not in this game not to make money and they will do everything necessary to do the best we can without getting relegated again and they are doing a fantastic job......They will not spend Millions on players and put them on stupid contracts again and that is great news as well. So far this season the Americans have proved they did the right thing getting rid of most of the expensive players on wages a small club like ours cant afford and replacing them with eager young players on less than half the wage these so called better players were on and that is more good news for the club.......We have a lot to thank our owners for and using the clubs money wisely.......Don't expect big names as you will wait a long time and i'm glad of that....
Beca Because we were promised that they would invest in the club to “take us to the next level” It’s very simple. They will only reap the profits they are aiming for if we return to the PL. Selling the best players and replacing them with cheap options rarely works.
Where have they proved they did anything right Dai ? All I see is a bang average Championship team. Mistakes have been made in the past, but nothing has been put right yet. If all they are interested in is making money, then forget about owning a club and just become football agents. There’s far more profit to be had there.
The saviours of the team this season were all here before the yanks came in , with the exception of Celina (ok still learning) McKay (the juries out on him) Fer (ok ,on occasion), we've been carried this far by U23 players and a couple of old heads that no one else came in for, and we're where we are in the league is down to more luck than design .
I'm wondering how much this prolific striker Dai said was coming in January will cost the yanks , but who cares it's their Club

Selling the best players and replacing them with cheap options rarely works.[/QUOTE] " we were promised ". Oh dear, here we go again. " Promises ", have little or no significance in these situations, unless they form part of a contract. Were these so called " promises " incorporated into the purchase agreement ? I don't know how old you are, or what your personal circumstances are, but I would wager that you have made many " promises " to many people, and broken a lot of them. I can " promise " you one thing though, and that is the Owners don't give a toss about you, or your alleged " promises ". You have absolutely NO SAY in the running of Swansea City F.C., not now, not ever, unless you purchase it. The sooner you realise that, the less angst you will feel, and I " promise " you will feel a lot better.
I don't recall Dai saying that a " prolific striker was coming in January ". But you are right about one thing, IT IS " their Club ".
Because you don't remember doesn't mean he didn't post it , unless of course you're Dai and I must admit there are certain similarities , big thumbs up
Knowing your propensity for making things up, I have no doubts now that Dai DIDN'T say it. You could of course reproduce his posts to back up your assertion, and I will apologise for doubting you. P.S. I'm not Dai, and you wouldn't dare bully me the way you do him, because I would kick you around the forum, and that's a " promise ". Have a nice day now, hiding inside that stupid hat you wear.
You seem to have put yourself forward as the forum police man , good luck if you think you can ""kick me round the forum "as you so succinctly put it ,you've neither the wit nor intelligence . Based on his previous posts I imagine Dai's a grown man and who has over the years on here and the old BBC 606 has proven to give as good as he gets so why you've become his champion ,especially looking at some of your responses to him on the Lesbos Island thread which is hypocritical at best.. May I inform you that just because you have an inordinate amount of signatures against your profile doesn't mean your opinion or views are superior to other posters on here ,and to be honest it does make you come across as a bit of a pretentious prat Regarding my hat , I quite like it moreso now that I know you don't
Oh my goodness. I refer you to your following points : 6.Never be a spectator of unfairness or stupidity. 2.All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good people do nothing. This 'Business is business' attitude just doesn't wash in football - it's too tied into communities, it's not ****ing McDonalds.
So, you have been reading my signature. I hope you are older and much wiser for having done so. The only thing that doesn't " wash in football " are some of the people who attend matches. Nasty, smelly individuals. Swansea City is owned and run as a business. Business' are created to make a profit, and are NOT created for the benefit of any community. Communities can adopt a Club, use it for THEIR benefit, but the Club has no real responsibility for the community.
I'm not a policeman for this forum, but I do observe that you are one of the resident bully's. Dai is indeed his own person, and I have never stated or implied otherwise, but don't let that stop you making something else up. My signature is just that, MY SIGNATURE, and is produced for MY benefit, and not for half wits who really don't understand what I have written. You just cannot handle someone having a go at you, yet you gleefully indulge in belittling a regular poster on this forum, and if I choose to take you to task over it, tough. Suck it up. Is your hat supposed to make you feel like a hero ?
You seem to have, unsurprisingly, failed to address my comments about your "bullying" of Dai on the other thread . I must add you seem to be very angry hence the incorrect use of words in capitals , (they serve no purpose other than to confirm what most know that so called liberals have a tendency to shout down anyone who doesn't fall into line with their particular dogma ). May I suggest you try some ganga or have a good w**k , a mind soothing experience believe me. Regarding your signatures I can imagine you have them draped over your headboard as a reminder that you do actually have a purpose in life and that's to make me laugh and its working , by the way are they in any particular order ?
Seeing that you never attend matches it’s hard to see how you came to that conclusion. You’ve made it up. Now put your well deserved TWAT badge back on and be a good boy. I know you come out for your fortnightly ****stir but it’s actually becoming sad to see you make a tit of yourself.
