Summer Transfer Window

[Martyn - Derwydd]

I am guessing.

It's raining here right now

I am not claiming to know anything. I am passing opinions like everyone else on this site.

They paid 10m for 2 players (fact, no, just a bbc report) Guesstimating 6m for one 4m for the other and whilst there all kinds of ways to structure deals and payment schedules, including payment in full up front, the most typical is evenly spread over his 4 year contract.

In future I will preface all of my posts with " I am guessing" to make it clear I am just passing an opinion and not claiming facts.

6m/4...=...?

The report was yesterday morning not today.

A week ago I’m sure I saw something from them on twitter saying the Santos link was a jackanory story and agent talk. I may be wrong and it may have been another site in which case ignore that. It all goes to show how quickly this stuff moves.

Anyway. None of it matters does it? I don’t understand why there is this sudden competition about who posts what and when. The Swans have historically leaked like an absolute sieve on transfers and so on (seems a little less now which I can believe given one of the main culprits isn’t there any more) and half of Swansea has known stuff in advance.

Surely all sites get things right and get things wrong at different times because different sources think different things and also because everything moves around all over the place.

Don’t they all have a place. It’s only a bit of fun isn’t it? Keith’s site raises money for a really important charity which is commendable. I don’t post there as I found some posters utterly irritating to me, but others will post there as well as here.

Sometimes we seem like a fractured fanbase for not apparent reason.

Keith's site is very very good for information and he puts a huge amount of work in to that site. Also, for admirable reasons, yes it is commendable. I don't really have enough time for browsing both sites and when Keith carried on the old site I couldn't be bothered initially to move but....the same old posters with insane views who would even blame Keir for them wetting the bed just got too much. I would post there more as I have huge respect for Keith but it doesn't take long for the usual suspects to do their damage.

monmouth, I worked for years on Wall St. Trade deals, Bonds, Forex deals etc etc

6m/4 = 1.25m

It's called Wall Street math. Otherwise known as chiseling

Can't see much not to like about the Santos deal
Good backup - we need 4 CB's at least
We have 2 contracted as at July 1st when HD leaves

I’d be all for this, won’t have to face an ex-player next season

90% passing accuracy cough

90% passing accuracy cough

Aye, a centre half should have a high passing accuracy too being they never usually pass more than 5 yards

Does that narcissistic f***wit change his hairstyle every week? Talk about ‘look at me’. What a plonker.

Ok.

Just sounded as though it was based on something other than a complete guess.

Disagree re what is or is not the most typical but whatever.

I agree based on what we know. And assuming the wages are not high.

we need some older heads in the squad.

Montague on Obrien today

"We are talking to Lewis and having good conversations with Forest.

"We would love to be able to do something. It’s just timing and matching it all up with the financial realities."

That's a no then..
