    ........ if that’s true - which I doubt - but if it is, then one can only assume someone at Nice has enquired.
    And if that’s true - which I doubt - then Nice is playing a more important role in Barnsley than what we realise.
    But I doubt it.

    I believe that John Dennis (in all seriousness) tried to sign Freddie Ljungberg before he joined Arsenal!

    Why ?
    All what we need to do is offer him more money.
    Yer know - like what other clubs, even clubs like Wigan, have been doing to us hundreds of times over this past few decades.

    BTW - I’m not saying they should sign this player because I know absolutely nothing about him.
    But the point being - an ex-Nice player has been linked to Barnsley at a time when we haven’t got a manager that can do any linktabilityness.

    That's true I think- had a blinder against England then signed for Arsenal instead

    I'm purely saying he'll take some persuading considering the teams in for him. It all depends of this contract, if any, we off him.

    Well it's not public knowledge about how our transfers work when you own two clubs. If we buy a player are they being bought with Nice in mind if they're a success? And if they are a success and Nice wants to buy, who decides the value? There's a few curiosities that could occur were never addressed. Might we end up as a Nice feeder club, and does it matter?

    I’d like to think that we could form a mutually beneficial alliance/understanding which given our current predicament is likely to benefit us a lot more than it will Nice in the short to medium term.

    Well sure, we'd all like to think that and it sounds great. But say we bought A. Player for £250k. He plays a blinder of a season and is notionally valued at £5m. Do Nice have first dibs on him, even if they want to buy for a much lower value? It's one thing to be milked by other clubs for players, but it would be quite another to be milked by one owned by the same owners.

    I don't know the answer, i have no clue how it works or would work but then again I'm not sure we've been told how it would. As I said there's a few of these edge cases floating around ..

    Given the relative riches on offer in the Premiership as opposed to Ligue 1 I'd imagine Barnsley would hold more sway should we reach that level.
    If the owners are here to make money the Prem virtually outstrips every other league in the world. I can't imagine that's not their eventual aim.

    Suspect bit of lazy journalism going on here and Barnsley has been put in by error, express running a story on same player cite Brighton as leading the race and no mention at all of us.

    The example wasn't about earning money per se - it was about potential conflicts of interest.
