Following on from this agreement, the current board of directors — including its majority shareholders and the Supporters’ Trust — plan to work together and build on the strong foundations that are in place as a result of this agreement. The Supporters’ Trust has always been a much-valued and fundamental part of the football club since 2001. As part of this agreement, the Trust’s shareholding in the club will include a permanently protected 5% ownership position, and the Trust will have ongoing, indefinite representation on the club board. “This is the product of months of hard work spent in constructive and detailed conversations between ownership and the Supporters’ Trust and the former majority owners to find our best path forward for all parties and in particular the football club,” said Director Jake Silverstein. “This resolution has come about through a strong desire to figure out how we can ensure a long-term alignment of interests between all stakeholders and to establish a strong foundation from which to continue building a sustainable club that succeeds both on and off the pitch. We’d like to thank the Supporters’ Trust, and in particular Trust Chair Dave Dalton for his tireless work in achieving this. I sincerely believe that we can move forward, work together and strive for success because at the core we all want the same things for Swansea City.” Dave Dalton, Chair of the Supporters’ Trust said: “The Trust is pleased to have reached a resolution that is in the best interests of the Trust and football club and looks forward to a new chapter built on mutual support and co-operation. The Trust will shortly provide further clarifications about the agreement reached in a separate statement to its members.” Majority shareholder Jason Levien added: “We have been determined to establish the proper framework by which we can work together with the Supporter’s Trust to support the club in continuing to thrive and move forward. “Jake has played a key role in helping to drive this and, on behalf of the club, both myself and Steve are grateful for his and Dave Dalton’s efforts to bolster our future collaborations with the Supporters’ Trust.” 15th February 2022

Majority shareholder at some point I'd imagine. |  |

Nothing against the current owners but those lot are lower than shark shite imo. |  | |  |

You like many members have a very poor grasp of business basics unfortunately and work on emotion rather than logic. I am a little disappointed that the US people and Sellers have given too much away. |  |

Haha of course you would. It's not emotion, it's business. The trust have given up a chance to gain £21mill for 500k. |  |

The sellouts and yanks must be thanking their lucky stars for Silverstein, no one else. He’s got rid of the pesky supporters voice in a slightly underhand fashion, whilst saving the sellouts having to dip into their millions. It’s about time one of the multitude of Americans across the ocean behind the scenes stumped up some cash: |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Depends which way you look at it. The point is none of the other yanks have turned out to be ‘money men’. |  | |  |

Its time the Trust stumped up some cash. £880,000 in the bank and nothing to spend it on. £500k at least into the convertible loan note please. Why should Mindy cough up? She has never even been to Swansea (or Resolven) as far as I know. |  |

Should be very proud of a sustainable football club, although those accounts figures are obviously two years out of date. Last year's loans now being converted into share capital means we're not still on zero. |  | |  |

You know they won't join and the likes of Silverstein wouldn't want them to. So I don't know why you keep going on about it. |  |

Good. Imagine being dependent to the tune of tens of millions to anyone. |  |

On his linked in he calls himself a "co owner". The loan must therefore have been converted. |  |

Todays agreement certainly wasn’t reached on the basis of the loan being converted. No assurances that Silverstein will convert were received during negotiations. |  | |  |
