• We have today (22nd April) confirmed the closure of JackArmy.net on 31st May. Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

    Fine margins - after a tremendous first ten where we dominated but didn't work the keeper we went shite and they could / should have been at least 2 nil up were it not for heroics from vig / key. And then an astonishing turnaround where we all thought we were 1 down only for them to go down to...

    I can't see rangers paying the going rate for the championship top goal scorer whos still got time to run on contract. Footballing wise we absolutely shouldn't sell if the club wants to progress but it depends on ffp. We haven't had a hefty sale in a while now so it maybe required. Depends on...

    I've told you repeatedly how I and the vast majority of football fans generally form an opinion of what a club has paid for a player. Its a regular topic of conversation with every single football fan I know. There are many ways how this opinion/ guess / assessment is formed. You're either...

    Yes I know thats what you claim to do, even though like the Bony example its a ridiculous stance because transfer fees can and should alter the assessment of a signing because it can have a profound affect on the club. And you delude yourself too - when a player isn't performing you ignore...

    You ignore transfer fees altogether though apparently!

    See, you are capable of critical thought, so dont pretend you dont think about things but then criticise others for doing so.

    A structure would be a club pays a set amount at set intervals no matter of what happens following the transfer. A clause (the one you are referring to) would be when a club pays extra in future but only when certain agreed milestones are achieved. Depends on what the clauses are as I...

    Its the current opinion based on the information available at the time. If performances improve, the opinion will change.

    And even then its looking a good deal because of the level of his performance.

    You're talking about clauses, not structures. This is why you look at as whole a picture as you can and ask questions like, would the selling club accept a clause that would be pretty unobtainable? No probably not. Would Celtic for example let us but Idah for 500k but we pay them another...

    But am capable of forming an opinion.

    Not necessarily. If we'd paid a much bigger fee than we did for Galbraith for example it would still have been a great signing because he has performed.

    No, which is why I don't. That's too intricate. Ultimately we have to pay whether its up front or spread.

    Theres plenty of ways to form an opinion. Ive explained it at great length.

    I have, above. There is a lot of information out there to form an opinion of what we may think a transfer fee maybe. What do you do when we sign for undisclosed then? Give it no thought and ignore all rumours and reports?
  16. Cinio Dydd Sul

    Melker Widell

    So you pay zero attention to any transfer fee ever reported or suggested? This descending into silliness now, you may not like that say some signings haven't played well but are you really going to be this partisan and untrue to yourself to claim that you dont have an incling or care about any...

    Again, I think I do have an idea generally what the deal was.

    Not of them, of the transfer.

    Not without no inside information, but its only natural for most to form an opinion on what the club has paid for players. As I said, this information isnt always knowingly released by clubs.

    Melker Widell

    Well i dont actually blame the player unless they're blatantly not trying.
