"... caught up in a dismal cycle of failure that sees the club lurch from crisis to crisis, hire and fire managers, and never for a moment stop to address the deeper, underlying problems that have got them into such a dire position in the first place."
"The buck stops with Huw Jenkins, the chairman who has presided over far too many poor decisions without being held to account..."
"...being absentee owners only works if the person running the club on a day-to-day basis has the football expertise to make the right calls. Swansea’s flawed managerial appointments, and in particular their transfer strategy over the past few years, suggests otherwise..."
"...the woeful season that has unfolded were sown during a disastrous summer transfer window that laid bare some of the unfathomable thinking that goes on behind the scenes when it comes to player recruitment."
JENKINS OUT

Little by little the truth is starting to come out but it is gathering pace now, at last. |  | | |

Yes- but....the Yanks set the policy now and he’s dancing to their tune. Jenkins should fall because he’s incompetent and duplicitous- but selling to the Yanks compounded the problems a thousand fold. They have no regard for the club other than its profit making potential which it will suck out as soon as it materialises. These corporate monsters will be the death of the club- Jenkins, Morgan, Dineen and the others got what they thought was a doctor and werent that bothered to find out what the doctor was really like. |  |

you are right, jenkins and co being removed would be a satisfying emotional response.
but it will fade when we see what they have left us with .. but that comes later .. they have sealed their fate and legacy already and need to be removed. |  | | |

I agree. Jenkins has sold the club to financial vultures who just want to suck money out of the club. I fear for us if/when we go down. | |

The Americans only significant fault is in not fixing the Jenkins problem. There's no real difference in spending compared to before the sale. If they're "sucking money out" of the club so were the last lot.
Apart from putting Clement's fingerprints on the Abraham deal that article is dead on. | | | |

Absolutely spot on article. Should have formed the basis of the comments made by the fans representative last night on Sky Sports News. | | | |

But Huw Jenkins only receives £500k a year plus bonuses - what do you expect? | | | |

Does anyone actually take Wales Online seriously any more, or for the last 10 years or so anyway.
Its extremely poor rag tag of a news outlet. Its out of touch, our of date and just generally sh!te. | | | |

That's what you get when you put a greedy 3 times failed businessman in control of a football club, long time loyal supporters my ass jenkins, morgan, and the rest off the sell outs get out of our club |  | | |

The SCSA could cut and paste that article and rerun it word for word as their statement. Fair play to The Guardian, that is spot f*cking on.
Puts the local rags to shame. |  | | |

So many adverts and surveys clog up the pages I don't bother reading it any more. | | | |
