Cheers for that. Very interesting. I was not aware of the difference to the PL.
Do we have any links to the rules and regs on who we can sign?
At least we are all in the same boat together but I hope we will go for our full quota of continental players regardless.

More great news for our Academy ...


innit

anyone else agree that we should never have bothered with Tammy Abraham in the first place and given the chance to McBurnie all day long?

it's bleeding obvious to see, that's what winds me up the most.

It's not the relegation that pee's me off, its the stupid decisions our club makes.

Andrea Orlandi was a Barcelona player.

Where he’s coming from is irrelevant. How good he is is what’s important. I would love to think that Potter is already having a say before his contract is finalised and that this is someone he knows about. I doubt it very much though.

Under 23 or first team squad? If it’s U23 Cameron Toshack May be involved.

I'd rather we'd aim for a core of young UK and Ireland players. Look at Burnley's squad, very few overseas players, haven't spent a fortune on players, we could become the Burnley who play attractive football.


this is another good point worth mentioning.
We havnt got the scouting network we had before. id rather more hungry players from closer to home.

Oh and to add insult to our sad misfortunes, we bloody let Cork go to Burnley.

I can't.
Abraham, in fairness, looked like he could set up McBurnie hadn't.
The big drawback for Abraham was he was, for most of the season, relied on too heavily because of injuries.

Tammy was the wrong type of player for us.
He needs lots of low crosses coming into to box so he can poach. His hatful of goals in the Championship proved that. They were always tap ins.
For many on here there was no hindsight. Just a recognition that we would have to change our style of play to accommodate him. We didn't and we relied on him as first choice which was another mistake.

So..It's looking like we're going to rely on academy players from top clubs spending minimal fees..this could very much backfire.

Could be a player Potter and his scout have reccomended. I don’t understand why our fans are so negative about these low cost signings. Moan about average £5m signings, moan about signing young talent. What’s the point in supporting the team if you’re gonna moan about everything.

Most would like assurance that a new manager is in place and calling the shots.

The clubs recent transfer record has cost us big time.

The fans angst is with those at the club who call the shots.

Yet on the other thread, the same people protesting about the need for a new manager calling the shots would quite happily see the club sign the keeper Ward from Liverpool without the new manager being appointed.

If we sign a youngster it's another one for the academy moan.
If we sign a player on loan why are we helping other teams by giving them experience moan.
If we sign a player for a few million
. It's a Huw bargain 5 million moan.
If we sign an ex player lazy signing moan.
If we pay between 15 and 20 million for a player why the fukc did we spend all that money on that useless tw@t moan.

The second moan is pretty rare. Not heard that one.
All the rest are valid moans because of WHO did those signings and the eventual outcome.
If recruitment was in the hands of someone who had a clue what they were doing then there would be far less moaners.
What do you suggest? Keep schtum and hope history does not repeat itself?
No sarcasm here, I am genuinely interested :-)

The club have said they are considering appointing a technical director and reviewing the recruitment policy.
So all we can do is take that at face value.
Transfers are always a gamble.

Jordan Ayew and Mawson were good signings and they were fairly recent.
Last summer's signings didn't work out but who could have predicted Messa and Sanches turning out like they did.
The owners don't want us to be wasting millions on duffers.
Hopefully Potter the new technical director and the scouts will find a few gems this summer.
No guarantees but that applies to all clubs.

Another example of the fanbase being completely split and confused about its direction, ethos and ultimate goals.

On one hand we have people moaning that we are making signings with no manager in place yet I am pretty damn sure those same people would also be blaming the club for other clubs stealing a march on us in terms of transfers if there was no activity.

People are acting as if Swansea is the anomaly, this is regular practice. Just as relegation is. Yet people feel we should be immune from all of this. I can’t get my head around it. Before that, it was praising the clubs ethos of ‘prudence before debt’ - while complaining the Americans aren’t investing their own money into the club (debt).

Have our fanbase been in a more confused and contradictory state? Certainly not in the last 25 years for my mind. This is where the Trust needs to be galvanising everyone and coming to common aims and goals.

But it clearly is that hard, otherwise we would have him in place by now.

It’s not all taking a while just to annoy you, this is real life football situations. A lot of things need to be sorted for this to happen, clearly.
