Co-owner becoming a free agent...

Indy are saying the Modric buying house story is a fake, so let’s see what’s happening.

Rumours Gorringe is leaving us in June and going to Brentford.
 
After two months in the job?
I read about this one just before the weekend.

No clue how much truth there is in it, and it would seem strange indeed for him to be headhunted when he hasn't even done anything at the club yet. Not sure how big a part he has had in the very promising start to our summer transfer business but its definitely not a boat we want rocked in any way realistically.

Does anyone actually give a fuck if he’s buying a house in Swansea or not?
He’s a multi millionaire who’ll spend next to no time in Wales what the hell would he want a bloody house here for?
People will believe anything.
 
Modric will need a safe haven when he travels back on the coach from Stoke on a Wednesday night ..

Gorringe is weird one. Wonder what's going on there if true. Of course he is jumping to a Premier league club, but just putting it out there if it happens then so be it. Not sure we want journey men at the club. People come and go, but if he goes the moment another club flirts with him, then he can do a Williams 😊😊
 
Ever since the Yanks took control of the Swans there have always been innuendos of behind the scenes shenanigans and whose to say that the delayed arrival of the Celtic coach has something to do with the Gorringe rumour.

The house buying story is someone flyong a kite...read the Sun article again....Three Crosses and close to the beach!
Leons house is actually in Upper Killay..and its still advertised on line so if Modric were buying it Im sure Leon woukd have dissed the agent save himself a wedge.
Whilst 3 Crosses is near the beach its not close to the beach like properties in Caswell and Langland. Some ome somewhere took the free agent and Leons house sale and looked to make some money from the Sun.

Whilst a lot of us fans would love to see Modric here would it really happen?

Imagine the situation....Whilst Sheehan has done a great job to date he is not a " personality" or "celebrity" manager ala Pep,Klopp,Marino, how would he cope with a figure such as Modric in the dressing room especially if neithernof them saw eye to eye over footballing matters especially when Modric is a shareholder/part owner.

Modric isnt coming if he was it would surely be as player coach/manager it wouldnt work otherwise.
 
I'm amazed how many people genuinely believe that Modric will have any kind of day-to-day role with us any time in the foreseeable future. This isn't a world-class player that has been retired for 20 years and wants to return to the game.

He'll be wanting some return on investment. At best, he may have some contacts to pass on here or there. He's still got some playing time in him and it'll be spent in America or the Middle-East earning hundreds of thousands per week, not running around the Liberty for a mid-table Championship club for a relative pittance.

It's a positive to have him on board, but it's being over-egged far too much.
