News hits us here at jackarmy.net tonight that Finance Director of Swansea City, Martin Burgess, left the club this afternoon, believed to have resigned, unable to work with the new owners.

This is the first real sign of people jumping ship and if he has walked out then he is to be applauded for doing so if it is for the best interests of Swansea City.

The official news of the departure of Burgess will come from the club after the weekend but he has gone and you have to wonder who is next.

Ex-chairman and supposed man who is just at the Vetch on an advisory basis Mike Lewis, is rumoured to be in attendance at tomorrow’s game with Leyton Orient which could make for a few interesting reactions.

There are also rumours hitting us that Mike Lewis is touting around some of our young stars of the future.
