I jest of course (it's the apt thing to do when club whose temporary 'fans' have boasted so loudly of the above) and it simply raises more questions than answers of where their money has actually gone since the tenure in the Premier League and the sale of players amounting to over £100m (Sigurdsson was £45m on his own)?

Sure won't. They forwent that likelihood in this neck of the woods some time ago...not that it would dent the vast sums involved in football in the period between that situation and this!

There is not much love lost between their Trust and the new owners. If I recall right the love affair the Trust had with Huw Jenkins evaporated overnight once they heard about the new owners.
For me a Trust is there to protect the interests of the fans. They are there to inform the fans of good and bad that is going on at the club. So credit must be given to them here. However, I doubt its going to make any difference what they say. it's not going to pull the Jacks out of their dilema. That can only come from the owners. Its not looking good for them then again they are not alone.

Thet are a fine example of a brilliant well run fans trust, letting them sell to the Yanks was great bit of business

They knew nothing about the sale until it happened.

Lets face it, the thought of you not lasting more than one season in the prem yet we lasted seven is still killing you isn't it. You can just tell the agony screaming in that message

But after 7 seasons they had to have players with massive wages. The 7 seasons also attracted the attention of the "YANKS" (god bless em) All the members of that consortium will (as individuals) most probably be in some form of financial difficulties because of the current world pandemic. I just hope they all want to take their cash out and run for the Hollywood hills.

Since 2009 we have had a stadium which is bigger and better than yours (33k against 20k) plus CCS has become the home of the Welsh International team and helped deliver the first appearance in a Euros final in 2016 and a second in 2021. Also we have the record attendances for a Welsh club in the Premiership in fact we must have the top 38 ranking attendances before Swansea make an appearance
We have also been promoted twice to your once and both times we went up automatically once as Football League Champions and once as runners up, whilst you went up luckily through the play offs and didn't even finish 3rd
Let's face it all of the above must be killing you as it highlights which club really is the biggest and best for Welsh football
