Swans Chairman Huw Jenkins has said that the contract talks with Bayo and Izzy were conducted in a "fair manner" and the deals were right for the club when they were put to the players.<\/p>\n

Jenkins made his comments after both Bayo and Izzy hit parting shots at the club during the talks which ended with both players leaving – Izzy for Scunthorpe United and Bayo for a "League One Club" who has yet to show their hand with regards the striker.<\/p>\n

Both felt that they had not been offered deals that they deserved with the club only offering one year with an option for a second should certain clauses be met.<\/p>\n

Talking to the Western Mail, Jenkins said “I’m not disappointed at all by any comments made, myself and Roberto felt we dealt with the negotiations in a fair manner and had put the correct deals to the players,<\/p>\n

“If the players and their agents decide to look for better terms elsewhere, then that is quite within their rights and no one is going to criticise them for that.<\/p>\n

“I’ve had a lot of dealing, in business or football, and these situations arise from time to time. You get to a point where if you give people everything they want they love you, if you don’t, they hate you.<\/p>\n

“We wanted Bayo to recover from the injury and get back to fitness here, that’s why we initially offered him a deal a month ago, I know our supporters will be disappointed to see both players go, but that is the way football goes I’m afraid.<\/p>\n

“I can only thank them for their commitment for us and wish them all the best of luck in the future wherever they go.”<\/p>\n

The Chairman was also confident that the new faces – starting probably with Darryl Duffy – would be in place sooner rather than later “I know we have good replacements lined up for those leaving and I’ll only say a few new faces will be joining us soon.”<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n
