Shaggy Jenkins Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Honestly beginning to think he is more trouble than he is worth. Again a few good games, then started to believe the hype and started to be greedy and over play things and now his head is away again and has not performed to any level since December. Really not worth forking out big money for such inconsistency dublin saint and Shibbydoo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Apparently asking for more than we offered May, and his agent has instructed him to refuse to lower that demand. Hes gone, as he's not worth that. The ghost of Jim Morton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tucker Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 See what happens with Swanson to be honest out of easton or Swanson signing a new deal would rather see easton sign gives 100 percent as i say players always leave but rarely enjoy there football as much when they play for a we'll run club like saints more fool them Abernethy Saint and Shibbydoo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Templar Saint Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Seems to be a similar story from Danny boy as the last time when he jumped ship for Hearts and look what happened. We need to tell him that what ever has been offered by the club is a final offer and sign it or take heartache from missus when he goes elsewhere and does not get game time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before you start a rant, I'm making sure it's not being represented as fact by starting sentences with "apparently" Yeah, I managed to find the thread on there and the turnstile guy did claim that what Swanson wants would make him the highest paid player in our history. He does not mention his agent instructing him to refuse to lower his demands however. So do you have another source for that bit? Or is that just another one of your fairy stories?

Really not worth forking out big money for such inconsistency Surely the inconsistency goes hand in glove with the contract breakdown and the personal issues he has been hit with. He is a great player, the best since May and worthy of a handsome contract, if that bursts the budget then we cannot proceed with the contract. All a bit messy for all sadly. His absence today points to only one conclusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 d know grass isint always greener When will they ever learn. Surely Danny should talk to O'Halloran. You would think with he well documented problems & the fact that he has already had 2 moves that didn't work would convince him the grass isn't always greener. sixties saintee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The ghost of Jim Morton Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Thing is, it is not just about Danny Swanson. We have a squad of 20 players who will all be watching and listening to whats going on. If Saints were to say , okay lets give him £3k a week and lets give him a 3 year deal, it could quite easily cause unrest amongst our tightknit squad. We have a wage structure, and if you break it for one, you open Pandoras box. Everyones agents would be beating a path to the Chairmans door. Swansons is ,on his day, a great player, but sadly he has not been "on his day" for a while and does blow hot and cold. Just not worth it. I hope the Chairman pulls him up with his agent this week and puts a final offer on the table. I would also be happy for the chairman to publicly confirm this. ( if going to the press is good enough for Danny then why not SB) Saints pay what they pay and I for one am happy about that. The lessons are out. Dundee twice, Livi twice ( maybe thrice actually??) Hearts, Airdrie, Motherwell, Dunfermline, Sevco ****ing Gretna... Someone called Broon a tight prick. Well he is, but he has to be.. Players come and go, our club and our support is lifelong. Oh and finally, if someone has contact details for Rowan Vine, maybe they could tweet them to Danny. I would rather he stayed but only on our terms..

mainstand Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I thought it seemed pretty clear that's what he was getting at in his interview, tbh. If that is the case Danny has to grow a pair and go for a realistic wage. Agents are the biggest problem in football. The quicker players start to look for realistic salaries and stop listening to Mr 20 percent the better The ghost of Jim Morton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhq Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I thought it seemed pretty clear that's what he was getting at in his interview, tbh. If you are talking about Swanson's interview in the Courier, then there is nothing that could be construed as "my agent has instructed me not to lower my demands ". Or is it another interview?
