West Brom signing John Swift
On a free. Going all in for Wallace and Lenihan too. Better move quick or all the good championship freebies will be gone.
Re: West Brom signing John Swift
That’s a negative of not having a manager in. If they pull all those off it’s very impressive. I’d have taken Swift here for sure.

Me too. Very disappointed we weren’t even in the running for a Championship proven attacking midfielder!

Excellent signing for West Brom.

Re: West Brom signing John Swift
Great signing for the Baggies, and if they add a few others they might be dark horses next season.
Vital we get Kompany appointed ASAP, and get active in the market, we can't afford to be caught asleep at the wheel while others are improving their squads, even more so with the early start date to the season.

Re: West Brom signing John Swift
I think pre season for most clubs is starting 20th June in the championship. Not long to get a manager and 6-8 signings through the door

If he's going to West Brom he can't be that good!

Re: West Brom signing John Swift
Too much dithering again we should have snapped him up in January

If you are expecting 6-8 new signings in by June 20 there is a 99% chance of you being disappointedNewcastleclaret93 wrote: ↑Thu May 26, 2022 7:22 pmI think pre season for most clubs is starting 20th June in the championship. Not long to get a manager and 6-8 signings through the door

Re: West Brom signing John Swift
My thoughts Tiger.
I doubt either Swift or Wallace would feature much in a Prem side but both are proven Championship players and all I care about at the moment is getting promoted again.
I think both on frees would’ve been outstanding business.

Re: West Brom signing John Swift
I take your point. Not many players would join without knowing you’re in the managers plans.
Although I’m assuming we could’ve approached his agent, positioned that our scouts have identified him as a player we’d like to sign & play for a bit of time until a new manager is secured?
When you think how long we’ve had in this relegation situation we must’ve been considering it. I’d really hope we might be looking at players a level above Swift, Wallace in any event but to let quality free players slip through our fingers is frustrating.

Re: West Brom signing John Swift
What we could do is set up another thread, a bit like the “new signings/links” thread, only this one could be for all the players we HAVEN’T signed, and for everyone to vent their fury at the club for not doing so…. Give adeola Friday a run for its money that would.
