February 2023 for comparison

Absolutely no ambition - transfer window shambes in SA1

After all the planning and preparation that we were told started back in September and after thirty-one days of the transfer window, the close of play yesterday

And may as well bring February 2022 into it too

The harsh reality check of the January window at Swansea City

It is always the same at the end of a transfer window, you take a step back to look at the month as a whole with the overriding viewpoint this time being that i

We will sign people today Clive, we always do

The kid from Man City will be one - but we know that our loan moves have been less than successful in the past

We may or may not get O'Brien in from Forest (I would always err caution in anything Alan Nixon says) and we will make some random signing of someone we have never heard of but it will be Portugese and somewhere the words "the new Ronaldo" will be used giving him a free pass for being largely average.

Oh and we will probably sell Harry Darling

the Swansea way

A bunch of guys with no intent, never been proactive and have always been reactive with promises and words that have never been backed up.

Interestingly whoever wrote this (I assume it was me but it may not have done) was positive afterwards

My favourite line was "Sam Clucas arrived quickly from Hull and appears to be a good acquisition" - oh how wrong an initial reaction can be !

So, How Was The Transfer Window For You?

You'd be quicker than most of our midfield!

That is pushing a bit but I will give my all.

Subbed after a few minutes

Oh

One thing that we have learned, we can never totally judge a signing until they put the shirt on and played enough games to really judge.

That summer was just absolute chaos and panic.

The only surprise is that we end up surprised

We paid all that money to Hull for Clucas in the August - yet a month earlier in July, Liverpool paid £8M to Hull for Andrew Robertson.
