"33.8: Home Grown Players. Each Club shall be required to nominate a minimum of seven Home Grown Players on their Team Sheet of Players for all League Competition Matches (including Play Off Matches)."

I am assuming it doesn't't have to be the same club.

Bidding war for Ayew
at 11:08 22 May 2019

https://www.footballfancast.com/premier-league/southampton/southampton-signing-a

'Jordan Ayew is surely destined for a move this summer and The Sun report that Southampton are the latest club interested in signing him.'

After palace were reported to be considering £5 million Southampton come in with a counter-figure £4 million!

How low will hey go?

Fair play table.
at 11:49 10 Apr 2019

We are currently leading the disciplinary table by 21 points over Hull (41 - 62).
Is there a financial reward for heading this table as the end of the season?
I remember seeing over £1 million but can't be sure.

Radio Wales Post Match nonsense.
at 16:44 7 Apr 2019

Tuned in to Radio Wales for post match reaction on the way back the bus yesterday.
Ian Walsh had a real rant about everyone at Swansea being let down by 'owners' who take no interest in the club and are not accessible. If they had invested Swansea could be challenging for the play-offs etc etc. And whoever he was talking too agreed.
A few minutes later he was praising Cardiff for doing so well and fans should be happy and if they had bought players they would be higher up the table; they would have to change their manager; they would have to change the way they play; they would have to appoint someone to be the go-between between the club and the owner. But it was all rosy and they could possibly stay in the Premier League.
Double standards or what?

Pre season tour
at 13:59 4 Apr 2019

Loved the pre-season games in Holland and Spain and again last year.
Hopefully we won't be able to afford training camps in the USA and remain in Europe.

A few days in Romania, Portugal or Sweden would be great.

(Also a few games in West Wales as per)

Any thoughts?

The cost of promotion.
at 13:37 13 Jan 2019

Until we have a sustainable financial situation and a team capable of sustaining high quality winning football I can see no point in gaining promotion.
We would need a significant contingent of players capable of making the step up or find ourselves bankrupt or humiliated.
In 2011 we took with us
Ash
Taylor
Tate
Britton
Dyer
Rangel
Allen

With a handful of decent also rans

Do we have that quality now?
IMO only MvD Hoorn meets the criteria.
Robert .. maybe on par with Taylor of that era.
Players have to be fit, reasonably consistent and reasonable robust.

Starting line up
at 20:53 10 Nov 2018

I keep reading other managers and some pundits saying we are a team that has just come down from the Premier League and implying that means we have that premie league quality running through the team.

Our starting line up against Bolton had just 39 Premier League starts last season.

Our success is well and truly based on Potter's team and has nothing to do with being peppered with Premier League players.

Strikers in January
at 13:38 9 Nov 2018

McBurnie is going nowhere but Wilf?
I can'r see us keeping him if he's fit just because his wages are so much out of kilter with the club and other players. Shame, especially as he would be good (IMO) and he and his family genuinely love the area.

So who would partner, push, test Oli?

Gossip around Tottenham suggests Llorente will be given a transfer or loan out - should we consider having back on loan if the £££s are in keeping with our pay policies?

Wales - future of the International team

Should our under 21 players be playing in the under 21 side improving their understanding of each other and challenging for honours?
I think Wales had 9 under 21s in the squad v Ireland.

Nothing to say but I felt there weren't enough posts slagging off the majority shareholders, making up situations and pretending to know everything that is happeneing behind the scenes.

With Fab almost certain to go wouldn't we want to keep Nordfeldt.
Not a Premiership 'keeper but could be following a season as No1 in the Championship.
