Swansea staffers supporting Russ. Is this healthy?
at 19:08 28 May 2024

This clip was taken from WoL

"Staff show support for Martin
Swansea City staff members travelled to Wembley to show their support to former boss Russell Martin. Martin oversaw a 1-0 win for his Southampton side, a victory that made him a Premier League manager for the first time".

This would absolutely infuriate me if I was Coleman. The club is having to sue him to get fair compensation and he has already taken a number of valued backroom staff. Are there concerns over "split loyalties"?

Are they missed.?

The super rich are off as they do not want to pay tax.

If they create jobs and businesses then off set the tax. If is just to enjoy Ascot and the cricket then no great loss.

Canaries perhaps Bluebirds for Cooper?

I reckon Steve knows he has to get a gig this summer.. Being out for too long affects marketability for his trade.

Bulut has given no reply after complaining about no offer. Could Steve use CCFC as a fall back position if there are no Premier League jobs. ?

Would not like to see it actually. He is a perfect fit for them.

Africa Russians taking advantage of Western malpractice?
at 13:29 3 May 2024

Africans have long been complaining of Western countries and firms exploiting the locals and winning contracts by bribery and corruption. These days African countries are working more with Chinese and Russians.

Wagner were hugely corrupt and violent so it might be out of the frying pan into the fire. Prigozhin was thought to control mines and worth billions. It does not suggest progress to me but who knows. It is a shame Western Governments did not operate more ethically. One is reminded of the mess Maggie's boy got into. Arrogance on stilts.

Could Swansea buy Rushworth?
at 17:37 2 May 2024

Imagine you were a US owner of Swansea and worth a billion or two as were a couple of your mates on the board. Could Swansea make an offer for Rushworth. £8m cash.

https://www.sussexexpress.co.uk/sport/football/brighton-and-hove-albion/award-wi

Of course Swansea would have to sell Wood and pay him £10k for sustainability reasons as explained by Mr McGuire.

It seems to me Rushworth is as close as a "sure fire bet" in transfer terms you are going to get. Uncle Sam wants sure fire bets and has the cash.

Some good news for Bridgend

The old Ford site. Vantage US investment. God news what they do but it is a massive site. Chip factory perhaps. They have a big footprint in South Wales.

They bought up a Chinese firm in Newport last week after security concerns.

Well done the WAG.

A centre forward who does not like heading the ball.
at 21:31 28 Apr 2024

I saw Liam Cullen's debut versus Crystal Palace in the league cup early round 5 years ago. Potter threw in a number of youngsters Harries the centre back, Dan James, Reid the solid full back and one or two others. He looked lightweight

Reid put in a beautiful aerial cross to Cullen to head and score on his debut. He made a miserable contact and the bll dribbled away. It seemed to me he did not fancy it at all.

Two year later Bidwell put in another great cross that Ayew would have buried. Sadly it was Cullen on the end of it and missed everybody. He by then had beefed up quite a bit.

I have always backed the man as Swansea born Centre forwards are very rare indeed. I want to see development.

Versus Norwich Ronald did a beautiful pass fed in Key and put in a lovely cross head height. Perfect for a planted header giving the keeper no chance. The Centre forward declined to head it and leaned back and took it on his chest instead. This gave time for the Norwich defender to get a block in.

If you do not like that sort of contact then you cannot be Swansea city's number nine i my opinion. A lot of chances will slip away with two wingers and Key and Tymon putting in juicy crosses.

Swansea appears to have two forward one who cannot head the ball and another who can but is not good enough on the deck.

Cullen does not have lightning pace like Michael Owen type so needs an all around game. Cadogan also have an horrible headed effort for the u21.

Other opinion are welcome.

A good uplifting game and a good point but are the statistics a concern?. Shots attempted and shots on target for Rushworth to deal with.

27 shots.

7 shots on target.

Any one seen Tom Coleman?

TC seemed to be the WoL Swansea city man after the other fellow went to the BBC. WoL who I have defended the ave recently not been attending away games.

So what does he do instead? Well it seems he is focusing on the pseudo Hello celebrity section on "Reynolds and the Yank" watch.

WoL cannot cover Wrexham and Swansea so Reynolds it is.

It makes no sense . Their readership is in the south. Bring back Abandonatto.
