    I know I'm biting which is what you want as you're on a wind up but......again..........are you saying that the takeover negotiations are a myth?
    If you're saying they might not come to fruition who knows, you may be proved right though no one has ever said it was a done deal. Well....almost no one.
    if you're saying it's a fairy story then you're just making yourself look silly. On a regular basis.

    It is getting ridiculous this tho int it ???
    How long are us fans expected to endure all this waiting ???
    Isn't anyone at the club courteous enough to give the fans a brief update in relation to the take over talks ???
    I just find it extraordinary - but then again not surprising when looking at recent history of the club.

    I'm literally looking at this message board a dozen times a day just hoping to see some news - the news which will most likely propel Barnsley to another level.
    So this news is important - very important - in the lives of the people that support Barnsley Football Club.
    But still absolutely NOTHING from the club.

    Either the deal goes through. Or it doesn't.
    An update isn't going to make things happen any quicker.
    Clearly, as is usual practise, the parties involved don't want to publicly discuss the deal. That's totally understandable especially given the propensity of football fans to catastrophise and kick off if they don't hear exactly what they want to.

    If it happens it happens if it doesn't so be it. Obviously things are still on going as one of the consortium was sat with Patrick Saturday. You didn't believe the papers when the deal was set to go ahead but you do when it's set to collapse... clown.

    No.
    What's wrong with saying .....
    'talks remain ongoing and we hope to conclude if everything goes to plan in the next 2 weeks or so'.

    What's wrong with a simple brief statement like that ???

    Because in 2 weeks and one day people will be creating and going off on one again. Claiming they're being hoodwinked, that there's no deal at all, that something fishy is going on. Etc, etc.
    Is it impossible just to wait patiently until its either done or not done? We're not fecking 6 year olds on Christmas Eve for crying out loud!

    You are right Nudger as season ticket holders we deserve to know how the talks are going if it wasn't for the supporters the club would collapse, we don't want to know all the detailed information, just say talks still ongoing that would be good enough but we have heard nowt at all from the club.

    consortium may have asked for no publicity until business is concluded.

    Conway attending games as the Cryne family's guest is a good sign that things are still on track.

    It'll happen when it happens.

    When you say another level , do you mean upwards or downwards , could it be a Bournemouth or could it be a Notts County ? All will be revealed , just be careful of what you wish for

    There should be 24/7 live video updates streaming on ifollow presented by David Dimbleby with some sort of swingometer to indicate how the talks are progressing. Rubbish BFC.

    Don't talk so daft man, tha making thee sen look like a 10 year old.
    Give a reasonable answer why you think Barnsley FC should not tell the supporters (whom without there support financially would not be a club) any thing about this take over.

    We know what's going on. The takeover is currently in progress. Hecky has acknowledged the fact and said he can't say anything further. What else do you want to know?

    Just stop attention seeking Baz.

    We all want to know what’s next for the club. Of course we do. But we’ll know when we know. I’m sure the buying and selling of a football club is a pretty detailed process, and I don’t think we can reasonably expect the club to reveal the minutiae of everything that is going on behind the scenes. We’ve got a broad idea of what’s going on, Hecky himself confirmed it, other things suggest that things are happening (the Companies House changes etc), Conway was at the last home match. We’ve just got to wait and see what happens.

    Agree, but seriously how much longer do we think it will take?
