Even if we were to win the playoffs, I would consider us a top class team. Finishing top 2 even moreso. Making it to the Premier League is top class for any Championship club, no matter how you slice it
But my point was really about statements that try to promote positivity about "almost making it to the PL". The owners and recruitment staff aren't doing this for the "close, but no cigar" scenarios. Who's to say that if we were to finish in an "admirable" place in the standings but don't make it to the PL, then do we tell other teams who have great admiration for certain players to "fugg" off, that we're building for next year?
No, the owners & recruitment staff would probably consider selling assets and starting over again, because what they assembled didn't achieve their goal. And, quite frankly, that's their prerogative, if that's what makes sense for them to reach their ultimate goal, which is getting promoted to the Premier League. |

I have a problem with posters who say or imply that owners' and staff's aim might not necessarily be for promotion ... this year or season. If we aren't aiming for promotion this year or season, then all of our gushing comments are for naught, imo. Kudos to the owners and recruitment team for assembling a squad that has, at first glance, loads of talent and skill to be at least in the top six, if not the top two! I have faith in Sheehan, his staff, and the current team to gel quickly and start their ascent to the top. No excuses, please! Put a good product on the field and capacity crowds will follow. |

Very positive rating so far. The current owners seem to have more ideas & creativity on how to deal with the club at this level versus the Levien-led group.
Expectations? The club has at the very least made the team more competitive, on paper, it seems. A great follow-up report on how other Championship teams' recruitment ended up being would be a really good read. Of course, a lot of us are really excited about the signings we've made but how does it compare to other Championship teams?
Support for Sheehan? Absolutely! Only time will tell but if there is one manager out of the last 3 I trust in leading the team, it's Sheehan. Again, like others have stated, there's a lot of new players to add to the mix, to the recipe, and we should all give him some time to see if he's truly the one to put everything together. |

Finally! Thanks for the update, Keith! Any word from our team regarding possible noteworthy interest in Vip? Saw a report (LR reported he saw it as well) that Swans have interest in Rak-Sakyi from CP. Any substance there? |

Cullen & Fulton aren't going anywhere. As for Cullen, he's not costing Swans that much but he offers something of value on the field. Fulton? As much as serveral of us want Swans to offload him isn't going anywhere since his wages are more than what other Championship teams and lower leagues can pay.
The question remains: Does our recruitment team still believe in their recruitment plan, or do they tell Celtic that we'll take Idah, but not for the reported £6-7M range. Maybe £4-5M. I don't know. How's Idah going to look at it knowing that he may be playing 2nd fiddle for awhile instead of coming in as the possible heir apparent?
If I make the decision, then I would go for signing Idah and keep Vip to insure competition. Unless there is some PSR consternation, then that's the best outcome for Swans, imo. |

Maybe we don't spend the money on Idah? Spend it on another striker that's not as expensive, or a loan? Something to consider. Or, go back to Celtic and change the purchase price/terms. |

You're right, but I didn't want to publicly disparage Cooper! At least he got us to the playoffs. |

Great post, except that I think he's very much a fraud! Yes, Martin reminds me so much of the Californian governor, Gavin Newsom! Sells his good looks, smooth-talking and boyish charm, and yet is able to get away with talking so poorly of others and trying to put the blame of his shortcomings on them instead of admitting his mistakes. Has his fans, media & power-brokers eating his bullsh_t out of the palm of his hand! What an egotistical, delusional BS artist! |

Would like to see Widell or Cullen along with Franco & Stamenic if Galbraith plays RB. Inoussa & Ronald out wide. Zip on top. Of course, Burgess and Cabango as CB's, and Tymon at LB. Vig in goal. |
