 It’s June 2nd so where is the announcement ? 2nd Jun 2023 07:00First it was 500k, then we managed to get the information it was 750k or close to it, and now we understand that the Swans are pushing for even more compensation from Southampton for Russell Martin’s services. The reasons as we know ( in the main ) are that Southampton are stating they are a championship club so the higher ‘premier league’ clause for Martin’s release doesn’t apply.  1

We paid him £140k and he left at that point was my understanding. |
Ok so I'll ask, if this deal fails and we end up paying Martin and his staff their wages for the next 2 months how much does that come to?
Is it anywhere near the difference in the 2 compensation figures?
If we agreed the lower compo price and Martin was gone tomorrow we could all move on, we would have both saved money and gotten some income, if we drag this out we could lose a lot more than we stand to gain. | | | |

Exactly. I'm all for going for the best deal we can get. But there is a saying about cutting off your nose to spite your face. |  | | |

We have history of just being absolute a mess in regards to negotiating things and just ignoring and pushing the other series issues to one side. When it comes to money then it wil be the be all and end all, everything else can just wait and they should have by now learned from their past mistakes.
My worry is, these players they gave ready and waiting to sign could get fed up and just move on, even the new manager might not want these players.
It's becoming another joke to add to the list. |
Right up Levien's street this, its not like he hasn't got previous. [Post edited 2 Jun 2023 17:56]

Southampton will be our rivals next season.
It is in their interests to drag this out as long as possible as it will delay our planning/re-building. |
It delays their pre season too.
Flip the tables, our fans would be telling the board to stop being cheap and just pay the compo |  | | |
