I’m sure Robins would love him but it would be Sheaf giving up on his Premier League aspirations and I’m not sure why he would choose that path.

I’m not sure I buy this. IF it’s true that Frank met him in London then his agent and the player must have indicated to Austin that a deal within our financial parameters could be possible. Without that Frank would not be meeting anyone.

Ok fine. Let’s move on.

No his job is to produce content that creates an audience

Most successful clubs have a blend of both. Maybe employing Frank and hearing it from another perspective has helped inform the view.

Gus jumped at the first opportunity that came along: I don’t blame him but let’s not pretend otherwise:

He’s not being signed to be dynamic he’s being targeted to link the back 4/5 with our midfield.

I thought someone said Frank had met with him in London and the meeting had gone well ?

That’s a little idealistic. It won’t be a popular sale with the Swansea fans and allowing him to play against them will be seen as poor management by the club. They won’t want that.

We should get the deal done this week and allow him not to feature on Saturday. We shouldn’t change a winning team anyway so the quicker he starts to train with the team the better.

If he did he wouldn’t have wanted anything in return …. Except unfettered access to the players, manager, access to behind closed doors fixtures., and a small but hard core posse of worshippers.

I think you’re ignoring the position premium…. Clubs will always pay more for strikers

We’ve noticed.

Why do you suspect that ? The Premier league is the most watched league in the world and players from other countries fall over themselves to join it. It’s also the highest paying league in the world.

Doesn’t sound like you are reserving your judgement ….

He runs the business now

It’s not quite like that. it’s more like someone saying we have had a lovely holiday so far at the mid point of their break

There were no expectations raised by the club only by forum ITK’s. Frank has been down playing it all window.

Yes in the summer of 2023 and his £35k a week wages were the issue

Swift ?
