So what about Bennett. 12:35 - Jul 13 with 2969 viewsReslovenSwan1

Bennett is cleary not playing for Swansea again. Why has he not found another club?. What is his contract situation?

I understand he has a year left and not training with the club. He would do great job somewhere in a different system and allow Swansea to get some of the £1.3m wages he is reputed to be on, back. Foreign teams would be good . DC United for example who have been shipping goals.

I believe in synergies.

Not his fault that we offered him a contract for more than we could really afford once the parachute payments stopped.

Does not fit in Martin's plans for whatever reason and won't command those wages again.

Possibly not the smartest or best value for money recruitment on his alleged wages.

Decent reply.
Thanks

He could however have shored up a leaky defence .

He s not a footballing CH but he has not been a bad stopper.

Russ doesn’t like stoppers

He is close to 50 appearances and maybe that would trigger a further payment to Wolves?

"I had a clause if I played a certain amount of games it would trigger a new deal, but the way the club is financially it was never going to happen," he said.

Exchange Routledge's name for Bennett's.

Did well enough for us when asked to play a more basic style of football. Not really what RM wants going forward.

For some odd reason this makes him evil.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

If he was on the bench a 1-4 up v Reading and 3-0 up v AFBC he might have been able to repulse them going all in route 1. 6 points instead of 2, great results and great for confidence.

Joua for Reading and Kieffer for AFBC just had easy picking as Martin declined to meet the challenge of Ince and Parkers substitutions.

We've had a lot of "Bennett's" over past decade. It's part and parcel of football as we know it. We'll still gripe and get angry about it...but as a club we need to make more good contract decisions than bad ones. I think we have...

There has been plenty of comedy reading on here of late

Im sitting back waiting to see where we are after 10 games....

It was interesting to read the thread about the Plymouth game methinks some should look back at the thread for last years game ( we won) against them preseason

He's gone, it really is time you moved on.

Yes I think 10 games will a fine barometer of the season to come.

]If we are failing after 10 games with no improvement on how we finished last season then yes I will be criticising the manager.

Hopefully having had a preseason and input into player acquisition then we should be more successful this season which I am looking forward to.

Im not sitting here hoping we fail Im hoping we do well BUT if we dont then yes there will be criticism

Not at all I want us to do well whoever the manager...

If we are playing well and getting results I will be happy BUT I wont be if we see a repeat of the turgid stuff served up last season with lots of possession but no positive results.No more throwing away 3 goal leads....or losing to second string sides
