at The Swansea Jack.

What questions (constructive) should be asked?

Maybe someone from this forum can collate the best questions and take them to the forum?

What is the "project" we hear mentioned so often, particularly when selling the club to players, coaching staff and investors. What are the short, medium and long term plans for the club on and off the field and how do you intend to reach these targets.

Are there plans in place to appoint an experienced director of football in order to properly supervise the recruitment team and allow Gorringe to concentrate more on the commercial side?

It will be interesting to see why there are currently only two on the panel and if more will be added.

Where have Snoop Dogg and Luca gone?

We need their support more when we’re struggling. Going quiet when we’re going through a rough patch isn’t a great look

Good point
Think we were all rather excited with their investment
But

They’ve been nowhere really and can’t see how our profile has been raised as we thought it would

There was an article on Modric in The Times over the weekend about his amazing performances for Milan. No reference to Swansea at all.

Nobody wants to be associated with a struggling team, it damages their brand.

In fairness to Modric, he is still a full time footballer so his time is limited. He's not going to be popping by every week to gee the lads up.

As for Snoop, the next round of commercial deals will indicate what sort of impact he's had.

They're investors. Not hands on. Yes high profile which attract headlines, but they pass on their money to have a little stake and assume they'll get that back with interest one day.

I wasn't expecting them to do anything else.

No, they are superstars hand picked to raise the profile and commercial income of the club.

Sure they own shares (I’d imagine bought at a very competitive price), but they aren’t run of the mill investors, there’d have been no publicity if they were.

Modric I can understand as he’s always been an understated character who just commands respect for what he’s done on the pitch.

Snoop would be shouting from the rooftops right now if we were in Coventrys position.

They don’t like losing mate.

I can only imagine they’ve got something lined up for the Wrexham game.

Exactly

The only thing I can really say for them, is they were probably sold the dream in the summer. Didn’t sign up for a rudderless half season with drab, losing football

After the failed summer transfer window, what changes will be made to ensure this does not happen again?

See how Matos does

I’m leaning towards it was a failed managerial appointment rather than a failed transfer window.

If he struggles as well, I’ll change my mind.

For whatever reason. I’m not seeing it as a bad summer window.

Galbraith ✅
Widell ✅
Burgess ✅ ish
Casey ✅
Stamenic ✅
Wales 🤷🏻‍♂️
Idah 50/50

Benson 🆘
Samuel Smith 🆘
Yalcouyé 🤷🏻‍♂️

Santos back up
Farman second back up

So 5 out of 10 with a tick and one of those could be going back in January, I was expecting it to have better results.

You could argue that only Galbraith has been the most consistent performer. I expected better from Idah and Burgess. I reserve judgement on Wales, Casey, and Widell since they have not played enough games.

Another player you have not mentioned is Inoussa

Overall it has been a disappointing summer transfer windows regarding incomings.

Not sure what fans want. The amount of experience and players that left was crazy. For me Benson is the only one that really hasn't worked. Yalcouye showed glimpses, but not sure if by what Matos is coming out with if he feels he is working hard enough? You could see him slightly sulking in the background with his arms crossed in the latest inside Swans video in the dressing room. Who knows what the issue is there. Burgess has been hit and miss, Wales we don't know yet. Other than that no complaints from me. Only complaint is our performance and who is to blame for that who knows.

I’d agree.

It’s been our best incoming window for years and we didn’t sell anybody.

The only one I'd say hasn't worked at all has been Benson. There's not even been flashes of quality from him. All of the rest you can point to moments, OK, perhaps not many, that there's something there.

I think if we'd gone into this season trying to play like we did last season instead of abandoning it for reasons known only to Sheehan and O'Dea we'd be doing better than we are. There's definitely something for Matos to work with IMO.
