• 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

    Phil Sumbler

They would if it wasn’t true. You are basing your opinion on something you openly admit that you don’t know - which I can’t get my head around.

I'm basing it on the most reported figure, which is all we have to go on plus the circumstances. Celtic letting him go on deadline day with no replacement, they signed him for 10mill. The transfer was in the works for a while before it happened and we didn't move on. To me, this suggests that we made it worth Celtics while.

All the figures are different, and our CEO says they are wrong.

We have no idea what Celtic felt worth their while as they were in the market for his replacement (Dolberg?) and it fell through after.

£4m + £2m on promotion may be what it took for them to accept in order to get their Dolberg deal done.

The figure has potential to go to the reported fee I have no doubt but realistically we paid a smaller initial fee. He could cost us the reported amount but if we do then it would mean we have been successful as a club.
I had this argument regards the Mykolo and was told by someone that Transfermarkt was practically on the money regards transfer fee, I would imagine if I had the same conversation regards Idah that it would be completely different and Transfermarkt isn't as reliable.

The Idah fee will be similar to what happened with Mykolo. What we initially paid isn't what is being reported.

No clue what we paid for either of them. But I am very confident we didn’t pay what is often said on here in order to be the basis to bash him. We wouldn’t have the PSR room to pay such a fee.

My point is, nobody else knows either.

You’re wasting your time with these two, it’s probably best to stop replying. They’re experts in the field of knowing precisely fuck all, like the rest of us.

They just don’t like to admit it.
