Sir Huw seems to making better signings this season with Matt Smith a Welsh international midfielder and this giant ,New Zealand keeper.
They could be popular in the lower leagues as I understand it FIFA pay big feed for EC2022 players. I am not sure of it is all world cups or a special care and the lady one in Qatar was in the winter.(A one off??).
Morrell is another free Welsh international he could consider Both featured for Page so should well above league 2.

Let's hope they pay their wages, lucky to avoid a transfer window ban from last season |  |

True, they nearly had a three window transfer ban for the sake of £3,500. Newport really need to be more professional or they could be in real trouble, they won't get away with it twice. |  | | |

HJ after 14 long years was not involved in too many adverse controversy in his time compared to other clubs.
The way I think is that I like and respect achievers that do good by me. Two majical trips to Wembley and Europe and transforming of the club. | |

The Huw Jenkins (and co) that took us from Petty to the Premier league and the one that sold us to Kaplan and Levein need to be judged separately.
One has a story that wipes the floor with Wrexhams, the other is a deceitful snake.
If he’d managed to sell to the kind of owners we have now, he’d have the the keys to the city. |  | | |

Your argument is flawed as HJ did not jump ship. He carried on as chairman and the problem the club and K&L had were created by some uncharacteristic work by HJ. If he thought Levien and co were not up to it he would have left and he still had his own money in the club.
Relegation was caused by HJ and Ledbetter his low profile recruitment man with some terrible signings Bony, Clucas, Sanches, Borja for huge money and all useless.
The new guys are loved but no one has seen any of their big signing kick a ball. Weiddel Inouusa Wales could all bomb especially if injured. . | |

Please re-read my post and respond to what I wrote, not what you’d have liked me to write to suit your agenda.
He sold to that bunch of chancers who lost interest the minute we got relegated. Staying on as an employee doesn’t change that, he had £8m in his pocket. It was quite possibly a condition of the sale.
Had he sold to the likes of Tyler Morse, he’d still be a hero here. | | | |

Tyler Morse is in a honeymoon period and will be praised to the hill if and when he he achieves half what HJ did. Even HJ needed some luck. No one has even seen him speak. The signs are good I have to say.
Levien and Kaplan are blamed for everything bad that happened to the club and this is false. They even got Silverstein to sort out the mess caused by the useless Trust. The brought some real good players to the club like Piroe and Gyorkeres Ntcham.
They gave this useless bunch £500k to cover their legal costs. They have no idea what to do with the money from what I can see. A couple of murals and minor sponsorship.
They cannot manage money as they are unable to find ways to invest. They are just there for the bank who charge them fees.
If Morse sells Swansea for £400m they will get back to the 2016 open goal they refused to take.

Of course he will. My post above about differentiating between the man who took us to the Premier league and the man who sold us to Kaplan and Levein implies exactly that. HJ did an incredible job prior to selling up. Morse will also get annihilated if he sells to a bunch of chancers who put us into managed decline.
Maybe it’s just a mad coincidence that everything bad that happened to the club, happened with them as owners. People blamed Tony Petty for everything that happened on his watch too.
You’re giving them credit for Piroe but absolving them of blame for Clucas. Try to stay consistent.
As regards Tyler Morse and the current ownership group, actions speak louder than words. We’ve heard them. | | | |

Clucas was bought by Huw Jenkins as was Bony who clearly was shot. Borja was another. Levien back Huw to the hilt and he messed up. One terrible season out of 14.
Levien gave Cooper Woodman Guehi for two seasons and Gallagher, Brewster. Gyorkeres. Gibbs White. It is not his fault Cooper did not want Gyorkeres and Gibb White got injured. Just bad luck. | |

Bony, Clucas, Borja were all Jenkins signings when he was chairman under K+ L
Guehi, Gallagher, Brewster etc were all Cooper driven, when he was manager under K+L
You want to credit them for the ones that worked and absolve of the ones that failed. This is exactly my point about being consistent. The reality is they almost certainly had next to no input in any signings, other than setting budgets.
Gyokores was pathetic here, which is why Brighton didn’t want him, as you know.
Take it you agree with the rest of my post? | | | |

If Cooper hadn't been our manager, no way Levien would have sourced Woodman, Guehi, Gallagher, Brewster, or Gibbs - White. | |

Levien asked Cooper who he wanted and backed him to the hilt. Cooper ran into Brentford twice and had them by the cahones 1-0 up against 10 men. in his first season. Fulham narrowly got past CCFC. That was his chance but he did not take it.
Fans in the post Brexit time got caught up in xenophobia. Gyorkeres had huge potential and Cooper saw it but did not act on the best interests of the club to secure him for the long term. Cooper was an expert in seeing young talent for the big clubs. He left a bad legacy of a shot centre back on huge wages.and Peterson who demanded to leave. | |

Brighton were Premier league with multiple options. Swansea preferred Jamal Lowe to Gyorkeres. They did not get rid of Gyorkeres. They sold him for £1.5m. Steve Cooper admitted Gyorkeres was a rough diamond but did not have a long term vision.
Cooper was an expert on seeing and developing talent. Sadly not for Swansea. It was a horrible mistake. | |

He was Huw s trusted recruitment man from 2015 to 2018 as scout or chief scout.
https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/dave-leadbeater/profil/trainer/7272
It would be very strange if he was not involved in the transfers of Tabanou Eder Borja Clucas. Sanches was Clement. To give Lead better credit he had some successes with Dan James and, McBurney perhaps earlier and Gomis and Ayew brothers Llorente was thought to be a Guidolin pick.. [Post edited 19 Jun 19:34]

I saw it. I watched his sole full game on line. An FA cup tie v Stevenage. He scored a crisp header and was pretty solid. He was in the Ivan Toney mould 21 not rounded and the club lost patience with him and cashed in.
I rated Garrick as well who made the cross. I lost patience with Cullen 2 years back but the club is backing him back. He is improving and recently headed a beautiful goal I thought was beyond him. It is called grafting
One man who did back him was Mark Robbins. That is why they for the last couple of season have outworked Swansea. They may be do a substantial sell on fee of VC is sold.
Coopers legacy was nothing. He improved Cullen Cabango and O Cooper. Martin signed a Downes which saw £10m coming in n and Darling who should have been sold last season.
My Spanish is a bit weak.
Cooper himself said " there is a real good player in this man". | |

Right.
So in one game, that you watched online, against lower league opposition, you managed to see what no-one at Brighton had. Brighton who are one of the very best and identifying, developing and selling young players.
