Certain reporters saying we have little money! 20:03 - Jul 21 with 2326 viewsmagicdaps10

Bit confused here after we were meant to be making a significant loan signing, spending 1.5M already and talks of bids in for players like Henry that these certain reporters are saying we are interested in.

Am I missing something or will this be the start of the movement once the new guy is in place!?

I guess it reflects the end of the Premiership parachute payments…?

Then why was it leaked? I don’t mean published on here, I mean by wherever the info came from. The club knew Cooper was leaving two weeks ago, so it’s odd that news of a significant loan signing should come out last week.


What I was trying to get over, surely the loan news came out after the deal was done with Cooper to part ways.

It wasn’t leaked mate, and I mean by that it wasn’t told to a selected few.
Personally I wouldn’t say anything more than that, and of course nobody would ever disclose their sources. However, there were developments from within the club that were not natural since we started to write about Cooper. And logistics that suddenly occurred that became a part of the assessment process we went through. The main media were clueless, I’ve seen two text messages from so called professional hacks completely annihilating our Cooper stories. And then today Percy Thrower or whoever writes an if buts and maybe story and the main news media break Cooper leaving the club, you couldn’t make it up.

If they placed half of their alleged ability in to assessing things properly and using specifics ( the already known ) in to their decision making they could have written that weeks ago.

"Chuck money" Not a term i have heard on Bloomberg.

Tends to be used buy poor old Phillip on SCFC2 who was convinced Swansea had 200 fake employees at Fairwood receiving zombie wage slips. "Martyn" loved all his post until he realised eventually he was a looney tune.

We spent £1.8m on Craig Beattie alone over 10 years ago. £1.5m is peanuts. No way are the yanks paying the rumoured Henry price.


Craig Beattie cost less than half of that.

Yes, I was corrected above. Still, Craig Beattie was our £800k marquee signing in 2009. 12 years later after 7 years in the top flight, £800k (Lowe) was our level of marquee signing.

That is what the reporters are stating with Henry but state we have little money, 5m might be off the cards for Henry but he isn't going to cost a few 100 thousand.

My Cal is, how can they say we hold a genuine interest in him but yet we have little money, likely hood that it will not happen but you don't look at a car that is over your price without having a bit of money to try knocking it down to what you can pay.


We have little money.
We could be losing about £14 million from parachute payments
But we don't have massive debt.
Last season, with a 'loan' from Silverstein we have done OK.
We will have projected wages and loan cost for the period of the original agreements including those returning early which could have released as much as £200,000 a week + loan fees which would not be cheap. Hat is not far off matching the parachute payment.
We are by no means flush but we do have a sound operating budget imo.

They value of their investment has fallen from £61,000,000 to around £20,000,000.

Spot on but I cannot take that some reporters are saying that we are not an attractive opportunity, there are a dozen or so clubs in this league slapped with/or recently had transfer embargos on them.

I would be thinking as a manager, they have just spent 1.5M on players and looking at what players will realistically be here for the season and I certainly see positives for the club.

I think you’ve missed his point there.

Their sole interest when they bought us was to make money. That’s probably true, though the appeal of owning a PL club may also be a factor.

Nothing wrong with that, it’s the same for virtually all owners, especially at PL level.

The fact that we’ve got relegated on their watch and the value of their investment has plummeted doesn’t change the fact they bought the club to make money.

I’d imagine their overwhelming interest now is either to make money by getting us back up, or to minimise their losses on us.

Investors in low inflation days are looking for returns of around 4% to cover inflation with a little on top. The US guys bought 69% Swansea at a discounted £1m per 1%. Burnely was sold for £200m of £2m per 1%.

Both Silverstein and Levien group can make 5% out of the Convertible loan note if they fancy being kind to the Welsh shareholders and do not convert.
