Swans income..

When you consider that two of those transfers alone add up to almost 100m euros (Gylfi to Everton and Bony to Man City) it says a lot about how we rarely got top dollar for our players, especially before and after Birch's stewardship. The periods outside of their stewardship saw many players either run down their contracts and leave for free or sold for whatever the old owners could get to line their pockets.

Signings on unsaleable contracts were also a significant problem and forced our hands in a number of circumstances to sanction sales of players for fees we would never otherwise consider just to keep the lights on. In this respect Huw carries a significant amount of blame, the likes of Bony and Ayew not having relegation clauses in their salaries crippled us for almost a decade and you could argue that only now are we starting to show signs of recovery.
