The Swans Awards dinner is tomorrow night. Remember last year when only Harry Darling didn't turn up? We know how that ended.


Well, he did turn up as he won the Best Newcomer award.

A cynical view of Galbraith's position as I think a PL club would see it:
1. One season in the Championship. Good, promising, but hasn't set the world on fire. Far too early to tell what he's really got.
2. Not yet up to PL standard. Bring him in then out on loan?
3. Got injured and was out for some weeks. Is he fragile?
4. Has loyalty problems, airs disputes with his club on public forums. Dressing room risk.

I think he is being over optimistic. I think his agent has wound him up and wants the transfer commission.

Quite a few people I know were there at the awards last night. All mention that he was exuding animosity or just looked pissed off. He had to turn up, I would have thought that’s contract related, and of course he had an award.

Entitlement surfaces ?

He was very cold on the stage receiving the award and the interview with Mal Pope was strained. However, he was very professional with the fans, posing for photos, signing autographs or just having a general chat. I was sitting about 6 feet away from him for the evening. He was very professional all night with the fans. Maybe his stage act was just an act?

This is a shame because he has one season under his belt at this level and up until recently he has been great off the field. Quickly turning in to a "Pato". We all know where this ends up. He certainly has talent but so do all our other players. I'm not sure how his wage compares.

He's not an up and coming youngster who's showing promise. He's 25 in under a fortnight so Premier league clubs will be looking and comparing with similar talent that's considerably younger.
If he gets a move it's more likely to be a relegated club or a bigger Championship club. He's very good but he's not the messiah.

He would do well in a relegated Wolves side.

Like I posted earlier,Keith
He agreed the terms of the contract and the lenght of it ,if he is throwing a tantrum over what the club has recently offered ,which would probably mean a pay rise meaning he’d be in a better place than he originally agreed to ,he’s making himself look a bit daft
His agent will undoubtedly be in his ear ,probably promising bigger bucks elsewhere but he’s a Swans player until that contract runs out or somebody comes in with a big offer that the club will accept ,he’s going nowhere,and if he is another Whittaker then let’s hope someone does offer silly money and he goes because let’s be honest , he is a good player but we haven’t really missed him while he’s been out
He needs to grow up and show more respect and humility to the club and the fans

Who instigated the new contract talks, the club or the player. If its the club as I believe just ask yourself why. If its to secure a bigger fee as I believe I don't blame Galbraith for holding out for a cut, we want to sell him. Maybe we should have put a bigger buyout in his contract in the beginning, trying to do it now is just treating Galbraith as a piece of meat. Vipotnik had a new contract with a large signing on fee and bigger bonuses to include a buyout again instigated by the club. Why is Galbraith any different, I think he is getting a raw deal.

The club.


For the reasons I outlined? Or because they wanted to give him a pay increase when he had up to 3 years left on his contract.

Same thing I heard from someone who went. Said he looked like he had a face like a slapped a**. It's amazing really...a very good player but clearly his ego is to big. I said it before, he needs to learn from Fulton. Irrelevant of what people think of him as a player, he is seen in high regard and didn't play up when rumours of him going.

There’s certain people stating he is staying, whoever stated he was going ?

A decent player….but we’ve had bigger and better. If it causes an atmosphere within the squad then it’s best for all he leaves….at a price.

Has it caused an atmosphere within the squad or do the players support his stance? Or are the players just accepting it for what it is, the club trying to get the best price possible for a player if they sell him.

The sell on fee is causing him some grief I would imagine.

He should back himself to be good enough that one of the top clubs would break the bank to come for him regardless of cost

There really is no need, just offer the buyout price and agree terms with Galbraith. He hasn't got to prove anything clubs are already prepared to pay the contracted fee and give him a hefty signing on fee and contract. There lies the problem, the club are trying to increase the buyout before the window opens and it is paid.

He signed for us from Orient to play for a higher ranked club on a bigger wage & he's probably going to leave us for the same reason.
That's football, I've been watching the Swans for too long to be surprised.
We're happy enough when we do it to other clubs, it works both ways I'm afraid
