I'm not giving up on Key yet. He's been here for two and a half years and for most of the that time has been a capable RB. I don't know what demons are plaguing him at the moment, but I've no interest in joining the pile on. Happy to give him time out of the firing line for now rather than rushing out to replace him. |

I may be wrong, but purchasing the stadium goes down as an infrastructure cost and is not taken into consideration for PSR purposes, so they wouldn't need "investment" to do it. They could just do it. Ditto going back to Cat 1 status. |

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I wouldn't be all that bothered if we didn't sign anyone in January. Most will point at RB, but we've got enough strength in depth in midfield to allow Galbraith to continue there for the moment. If the Wrexham game is any indication, he might actually have more time and space to operate in there anyway. Maybe I'd go along with terminating Benson's loan and using it for someone else, because of all the players we brought in in the Summer he's the only one who hasn't really shown anything. Otherwise I suspect there's more benefit in allowing Matos to work with what we've got for a while rather than instigating more upheaval. We've chopped and changed far too much in recent seasons. |

Inheritance Tax is a morally repugnant levy that should not exist at all. Plenty of civilised countries manage without it. |

Interesting to see how the narrative on the game has shifted over the last few days. Much of the commentary at the time was about how bad we were in the first half, but more people are now commenting on how well we managed Wrexham after a slow start. They were limited, but a lot of that was down to us. |

For this reason I would not be remotely surprised if more investors come on board in a similar way. A small stake in return for "influencing" the global market. If I was to make a suggestion, a Bollywood superstar or Indian Cricketer is where I'd be looking next. |

People who complain about the types of flags people fly at the football tend to be amongst the most bitter, narrow minded and nationalistic. Short of an ISIS flag I couldn't give two hoots what people want to bring to the football TBH. They're all there to support the Swans at the end of the day. |

Labour seem dead set on tying us to a rotting carcass. 15-20 years ago the GDP of the EU was about 10% bigger than the US. Now it's a third smaller. The Politicos in charge are more concerned with Empire building and regulation than in economic growth, and the entire continent is stagnant as a result. The UK has utterly wasted the opportunities offered by freeing ourselves from that malaise, largely because most of our own political class didn't want to do so. |

I used to think that Moore was basically just a skull on a stick until we played Cardiff with him up top and he actually impressed me, even though the rest of them were merde. He wasn't up to much on Friday though. Easily Cabango's best display in weeks. |

Of all the things that have been mooted as options, restoring Cat 1 status is absolutely vital. I can understand why it was cut in the aftermath of relegation as we were right up shit creek financially, but if current ownership are prepared to subsidise the ongoing cost (disregarded for PSR purposes I understand) then it's a no brainer to do. |

You spend half your life slagging Swansea off. |

There are Conservative councils also asking to delay. They must also be told no. The excuse being given is that the reorganisation is taking too long, but I'd wager that if you dig deep enough you'd find that most of them, if not all are currently polling as likely to tip to Reform control. That's not a good thing, but manipulation of democracy is worse. |

Discussing a general football point. Still takes the time to have a pop at one of his targets. "No player is hated". Whiterockin is bang on though. A big, dull physical side can be competitive at this level, but it takes more than that to be successful. A team that can play will usually come out on top against a team of cloggers, as we proved on Friday. |

Anyone purchasing one of these hoodies will have spent more supporting this club in one go than Perchy has in years. |

Innit. "This won't sell well in Swansea so let's not bother". We'll be targeting Snoop fans just as much as Swans fans. The kind of people who would happily drop hundreds on a pair of trainers or a bit of bling. Start getting the clubs name out there again. Start getting the brand out there again and the value of other commercial deals will rise. It's the sort of thing that should have been happening in 2012, but we left Dineen in charge of the commercial department. PS, it'll be interesting to see what happens with this Martha Stewart thing. Nothing official has been confirmed about her investing, but she's another one who can slap her name on loads of stuff and Americans with plenty of disposable income will buy it.
