investment is still needed on and off the pitch they decided to take money out of the club ( perfectly entitled too) but the moment they did the whole dynamic changed.
That is not criticism just a reality of cause and effect

Any board has to take the hit, irrespective of dividends or not. We have a board who won't push us beyond our means, and the new fair weather fans screaming that we haven't signed Lionel Messi can do one !

The board and the club don't deserve the fans! I have never seen such a fickle bunch of fools as on here, we are Swansea City not Man Utd, Bayern Munich or even Real Madrid. Get some perspective ffs, we are a small club punching way above our weight with a prudent board and a world class Manager. When Huw does something right he is lauded as a genius, but when it is something the glory hunters don't like he is public enemy number one.

I'm still waiting for the penny to drop with some of our fans that it is not in the nature of our club to do major business in January.

The last (and only?) time the board were convinced to spend in January, they got their fingers burnt.

The board have done amazing with the managers appointed and lots more, but there will come a time when they reach their peak and lack of experience and other factors will come in, its a fact of life unfortunately.

For now great job, but as soon as they started to take money out of the club they leave themselves open to questions.

What you mean like Jenkins who said:

"When I hear some of our players and staff talking [about getting to 40 points] now it really upsets me that they can actually think like that, because you are more or less conceding a third of the games you play in before you start. I find that the hardest thing to take, that we have actually got staff and players that struggle at this point in time to see where we can compete. And that's the biggest challenge I've got, to make sure that turns around and that everybody working with the club believes if we keep doing things differently, we can compete, irrespective of the size of the club or budgets."

Ngog, Emnes and possibly Bannan are squad players , Jesus wept who the hell are you expecting Rooney, Mata or Messi. The negativity on this board is astonishing I just shake my head at the fickleness of our so called fans

I'm talking about transfers, wages and general budget, not where we end up in the league. We laugh at them lot up the road spending obscene amounts of money on mediocrity but many of our "fans" would follow their lead.

The voice of reason, we would all love to sign the superstars of the football world but we are not in a position to do that. the signing's are loan players who if they don't perform can be f*cked off at the end of this season when we finish tenth.

Am I the only one who thinks Marvin will do alright for us?

Squad players who don't really cut it at championship level. I'd have preferred us to stay as we are, N'Gog was signed for cover, don't see the need in signing another championship player to sit on the bench.

The Emnes signing, highlights the fact we have our own
backroom staff, scouts etc, as in not MLs. The board have
highlighted this model for a long time over the last few
years, so that if a manager does leave our back room stage
wont automatically head in the same direction. This does
bring stability to the club and ML was aware of the set up
when he came and should be used to it as its common in
Spain. Many Spanish clubs operate this way!
Question is though is he happy with it and is that the reason
for the speculated friction between the board and ML and
why he may be not here next season?

Neither Emnes nor N'gog fill me with excitement, but they're low-risk signings that have a chance of surprising us. Comparable to Brendan signing Routledge and Lita. One paid off, one didn't.

People have quite rightly been complaining that Vasquez and Donnelly are not good enough back-up to Bony. We now have two players who should be upgrades and can cover out wide also. If they don't work out, we don't keep them next season and acquire a better player in the summer for less money.
