I've often wondered with these fines

Do the players/managers pay them direct or are they a deduction from wages or do the clubs foot the bill?

I’ve often wondered, why should he be fined for telling the truth? It was either a perfectly good goal or a penalty for us. There has to be an agenda there, so Mr. Cooper, in my opinion, was right. Another point, all the referees we have are English. Where are the Welsh referees, and if there were any, would they be allowed to officiate Swans matches? Would they be assumed to be biased towards a Welsh team?

That's where they have us over a barrel I think. We play in the English League. If we don't like it, we can play in the Welsh League, would be their answer. Though, Muteswan I agree with every word you say.
