Opinions on Trevor Birch on 21:06 - Mar 11 by longlostjack | You’re probably right Flash. The romantic in me clings to the belief that despite being a Fellow of the Institute of Bean Counters his footballing background will allow him to see beyond current market value when it comes to valuing our talent pool. |
I wish I had a sliver of your optimism mate, but no matter how hard I try I can't see any reason for optimism ATM. Maybe a surprise win against WBA might brighten my spirits. | |

Opinions on Trevor Birch on 20:03 - Mar 11 by LeonWasGod | It's a shame the accounts are released about 9 months after the period they represent. We'll be in the dark guessing about this season for at least another year. |
The Finacial accounts are late already and somehow I don’t think you will see them for a while yet Well, not until Trevor Birch has got rid of more players at transfer values he’ hoping to get Even so, that is going to be a hard sell in itsel. Because every football club in the land knows exactly the reason why he’s been brought in. And that is because Swansea City are in big finacial trouble | | | |

Not gloating at all Just stating the obvious That still we have Swansea supporters that think that Swansea are not in such a mess When you lose £60 million of your income in such a short time and when your buisness hasn’t been well run for the last four years at least Then it’s obvious the club is where it is You don’t bring a solvency expert in to run your buisness if you are not in trouble If you thing last summers transfer dealings was a fire sale Then there’s more to come if not worst | | | |

Opinions on Trevor Birch on 19:14 - Mar 11 by Flashberryjack | He's come in with one aim only, and that is to sell as many of our assets as possible whilst cutting running costs right to the bone, irrespective of what damage will be done to the clubs long and short term future. He's here for the short haul, that's for sure. |

It’s a balancing act of who Birch will let go and how far down the Leagues the Yanks are prepared to go If you think of it logically. Players will have to be sold to get rid of some of this huge debt that Swansea has. As next years parachute payment from Sky will only cover the cost of Swansea playing in the achampiondhip Not just players like Naughton, Fer, Routledge and a few others as they won’t bring much money in, other than to help on the wages front. The likes of James and a very good chance that McBurnie, Rodon and Roberts will be gone as well If you look at some of my posts of around the end of the season last year. I was posting that players that went in the summer would be gone and that Swansea would not be getting the money they expected to get for them The same will happen again this summer | | | |

No, the accounts aren't out yet. For comparison, Cardiff have liabilities of £228.4m so Eames snr may want to start looking closer to home. | | | |

Fuk Em!I agree we need to cut costs ,but dismantling the team where we'd get a kicking in league one is gonna cause riots ,mark my words | |

Opinions on Trevor Birch on 23:04 - Mar 12 with 1413 views | jasper_T | We probably still have small long-term debts relative to most football clubs, but the large deficit makes the prospect of mounting very debt alarming, especially as we don't have owners willing to lend the club hundreds of millions interest free out of the goodness of their hearts, praying for a PL windfall to one day potentially break even. | | | |
Opinions on Trevor Birch on 23:16 - Mar 12 with 1400 views | jackrmee | From what I've heard on this forum about everyone being sold in the summer, training facilities being flogged, academy closed down... What has changed with this Birch guy coming in? You guys said that was all happening anyway mun. Now it's much worse because it's definitely happening! So the rumours before were just rumours, but this now confirms it? Or is it still just a rumor? I'm lost. I just don't get what all the renewed uproar is, if you thought this assett stripping, fire sale was on the cards anyway? | |

I am sure I saw a post the other day to the effect that the club as owed £800,000 from a company linked to the JTAK film, that’s probably going to have to be written off. That’s a lot of money, a PL team could swallow that kind of hit but my Swansea and not now. [Post edited 12 Mar 2019 23:34]

The big difference with the two clubs Swansea and Cardiff is one is owned by a man that’s pumped in at least £100 million and the other has put no money in other than to pay the old Directors to get control of Swansea and left you up to your Knees in the brown stuff So much so,that they have had to bring a man in. That works with clubs that are insolvent or about to go into administration I know what club is in safer hands And it’s not Swansea City Accrington Stanley comes to mind It’s hapened once and I can see it happening again Football as it is run these days is unsustainable and clubs will go to the wall | | | |

I think we're more vulnerable than your lot. An internal debt isn't as big a problem as no debt but insufficient funds to function through the year. Large internal debt that an owner is happy to have only really becomes an issue when it comes to selling the club, and not always then. Cash flow problems on the other hand... (see Bolton). | | | |

I like this bit “I THINK” we’re more vulnerable Owned by a Hedge Fund That are not prepared to put money into Swansea Just about to announce that an insolvency expert to take charge of Swansea City And a big black hole that will only partially improve by selling some of the best youngsters that Swansea have And you think that Swansea are only a bit vulnerable It was only last week that I was asked by posters to show proof that there was a black hole in the accounts You don’t need much better proof, when Swansea are just about to announce an insolvency expert is taking charge of the club Wait a bit I will possibly be asked for proof that this guy is taking over next | | | |

Then repeat it x amount of times and it then becomes fact? | |

Yes he is. He is very argumentative, but that has always been the case. And most of the posters on here are falling over themselves to get at him, after he posts antagonistic things such as you quoted. But then, it's always been the mouth breathing pack mentality on here. I will apologise if he has changed allegiances in the past couple of years mind. | |
