• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

Damn shame, that. Boy is a big talent but wanted away.

Of course we do. He can't just walk for nothing.

Gutting even though the rumours had been flying for a while. Not even a Cat 1 academy (unless they upgraded very recently).

From the OS:

"...the clubs having agreed a compensation figure which represents the largest sum Swansea City has received for a player not on professional terms"

No idea what ballpark that would put the fee in - maybe others will know more.
 
Unfortunately I don't think compensation for youth players can also include sell on fees. This kid has the potential to make it big

That's not what it says in the article on the OS. Says there is significant add-ons and a sell-on clause. Perhaps there's only no sell-on fees when the clubs can't agree and it goes to tribunal?

Let's hope he's as good as rumoured and makes us a bundle more in the future.
 
Aye I just reread the article and it does mention that. I feel a little less disappointed by it now, will have to see how he kicks on but he has all the attributes to be a top striker.

Nonsense. We paid Hull loads when we sold DJ and his fee was decided by a tribunal as a 16 year old.
