Nah. It seems to me that, other than just for general fitness, Sheehan has mostly been using the pre-season to have a good look at some of the younger players, your Congreves and Wilsons. Trying to see if they can offer us something in the season to come before we make further moves in the...

He certainly had the ability. No doubt about that. Not sure if the mentality was reliable enough for the level though. There were question marks over his ankles when we signed him in the first place. It's one of the reasons we got him so cheaply. The wife of an old colleague worked in the...

I always kinda think that Bodde in the PL would have ended up a bit like Shelvey. Capable of moments of absolute genius, but also moments of complete insanity. Ultimately too mad and/or dim to be relied upon completely at that level, but it would have been fun to watch either way.

Think I read somewhere that his Great-Grandad was once Lord Mayor of Swansea. He certainly seems to be someone involved in a "making connections" sense and does apparently have small stakes in other football clubs. Perhaps he will come on board at some point.

I note that the article mentions Steve Nash. He's a name that keeps popping up too.

When I was at school in the early 90's the kids used to arrange football matches themselves because the PE teachers for the most part were old school rugby obsessed types and weren't interested in doing anything else. We had a nice little four team league running at one point. In the cities...

I'm not much of a Rugby fan, but from what I can see management isn't the games biggest problem. Even before the Swans, and then Cardiff, climbed into the Premier League, there was more interest in football than rugby at the club level. Sure, The Millstad is still packed out for the Six...

There's not really anyone left to alienate. That seems to be the problem. If The Ospreys were still pulling in the crowds that they were when they were first formed then obviously they'd be one of those chosen, but they're not. Their attendances are worse than the Dragons if Google is correct...

Attendances at PyS are significantly higher than Ospreys crowds despite the Ospreys being relatively more successful. Llanelli is a Rugby town. Swansea is a Football city. It'll be Cardiff and Llanelli most probably. One East, one West.

Doesn't look like he wants to buy them that badly, or at least the people putting up the money for him don't.

They mostly seem to be trying to convince themselves that a manager whose last head coaching role ended in relegation out of the football league, a ton of kids and maybe Salech if they can hang onto him are ideal foundations to get back into the Championship. Tan has slashed their budgets in...

Players like Wilson, Lloyd, Lissah, Congreve and Cotterill should have been out on loan two or three years ago, but your general point is right, especially the bit about Rodon et al benefitting from us not being in the Prem any more. Players improve massively by playing actual, competitive football.

Realistically players like Ben Lloyd and Kyrell Wilson should be on the verge of our first team squad this season if they were going to break through here. Both turn 21 this season. Both have probably suffered at the hands of us keeping players wrapped in cotton wool in our u23's for too long...

Seems to be the case. Getting rid of everyone and pinning their hopes on a few kiddies and keeping Salech.

88.5m Instagram followers. That's a lot of reach.

OK. Put me in the "more surprised if Snoop doesn't become a minor investor than if he does" camp.

Has the interest in Wrexham in North America passed you by completely?

Millions of others will be doing differently.

Not saying that they aren't going to be full of themselves, but if we're going to be playing a role we might as well try to get what we can out of it. It wouldn't surprise me if Snoopy came on board as a minor investor either. There have been consistent rumours of other high profile individuals...

You don't think that we're going to be a big feature in Wrexham's upcoming season? The first significant Welsh team that they've played in their rise up the leagues? Apparently important enough to them to earn the "Darth" tag in their fixture announcements? A bit of playful back and fore with...
