at The Swansea Jack.
What questions (constructive) should be asked?
Maybe someone from this forum can collate the best questions and take them to the forum? |  | | |  |

Main question surely regards coaches |
I expect it will a standard answer "we are looking to get this resolved as soon as possible and in the mean time - Joe and Leon will continue to support" | | | |

Where have Snoop Dogg and Luca gone?
We need their support more when we’re struggling. Going quiet when we’re going through a rough patch isn’t a great look |
We don’t know for sure if they haven’t already been speaking with the players in private as a group over zoom to give them encouragement.
A team under pressure and playing poorly might not want in your face publicity. When they’re flying high and on the crest of a wave yes but I think a quiet approach to sorting our problems out might be the best solution. | | | |

I’d like to ask them if there will be strengthening of the team with a few new faces to help cement our play off push in the new year. | | | |

What is the "project" we hear mentioned so often, particularly when selling the club to players, coaching staff and investors. What are the short, medium and long term plans for the club on and off the field and how do you intend to reach these targets. |
The Swans have plans for a fans zone, which will be near the South Stand. This is to add to the match day experience. That goes in for planning permission in January. The club are also looking to purchase the stadium from the council. | | | |

Are there plans in place to appoint an experienced director of football in order to properly supervise the recruitment team and allow Gorringe to concentrate more on the commercial side? |
If the right person comes up at the right price, then yes. Tom stated that they don't have to appoint anyway. They are happy to wait and make the right appointment. | | | |

Matos: I am not allowed to say
Kev Johns: It's OK, it's not being filmed
Matos: OK, they're here and being unveiled on Friday!
Kev Johns: Has anyone got a question for the panel
Matos: As long as you're not from the Visa Office! | | | |

Generally it was a whinge with very few constructive questions asked. Some took great delight in just slagging off the players. This should never be allowed in my opinion. However, it went on and one. Examples ''I don't want to name individual players but Ronald is ****''. At one stage Tom said that everyone has a role to play in lifting the players and the atmosphere, followed by the very next question 3 seconds later slagging off Benson. What were these people trying to achieve? Acting big and clever? I didn't think so.
A few constructive ones, as above, but generally a whinge. | | | |

If you are referring to my question re loan players.I said it’s a bloody disgrace some of the comments being made towards Josh Key.But I then said re loan players that Benson has been really disappointing. Not slagging him off just like the comments about Key,but a personnel view of a player that I think is valid | | | |

Council may be happy to get their money back. It's not as if anyone else is likely to be in the market for a stadium that size in Swansea. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Some times people forget their way in conversations, in Paul’s case as he explained that wasn’t an attack but an example. But overall some people need to think before they speak on any subject. | |

We pay £300K a year for the lease plus a percentage of the naming rights so 10X that would be £35M roughly. I would imagine it would be slightly more than 10X so a ballpark of £40-£45M would be my guesstimate. Any financial guys on here could probably give a more accurate price. |  | | |

300k a year x 10 is just £3m nor £30m
Very affordable
(but I suspect you are correct with a figure closer to £30m as the council surely won't be able to justify to the tax payers letting an asset go from taxpayer ownership for just £3m) | | | |

It’s often the case they act because they have thought about it | |

What is happening at Right back position in terms of strengthening this spot , how can the entire stadium spot the chunk in the armour but a full scouting department can’t?
Also when will matos coaching team arrive are the work permits sorted ? | |

Well since there’s been a real issue at right back and I mean since the summer there hasn’t been any way of recruiting one. January we will.
I’m certain.

Our right back has been poor last season as well as this one.
We sit in the South behind the right back. His positioning when defending is awful, he wanders 30,40 yards inside the winger , just ball watching and following the play. His man is nearly always left unmarked. The people around me can all see it, and like me, have been saying the same thing.
He can be decent going forward, but his crossing is poor.
Sorry to say, he is not Championship standard.
The boy is 26, he should be in his prime.
Naughton used to do a similar thing, going 20/30 yards inside to cover the middle, but he always had one eye on his man, and would be on it once play changed. He was clever.
I don’t think Key will ever change. [Post edited 17 Dec 7:26]

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

I thought we got by ok last season, nothing exceptional, just ok. The issues with Key this season have to be carefully managed and not just the football side. | |

It may all come out one day until then we should all back off, criticise when its due but cut out the personal venom. | | | |

The vast majority of us would not be aware of anything outside of the football. But what Keith says suggests there is something so can I respectfully ask posters to hold back on what they say.
People can still be critical of mistakes but some of the things said previously have gone beyond mere criticism. | | | |
