    Top quality statement. As I've said a few times recently, Conway is exactly the kind of attack dog we need during the upcoming legal wranglings. And yes, we are very much a part of that process. If you think we're not you're wrong. Conway knows it and this is the first shot across the bows.

    But I still really don't like him. It's still all about the money and not about us. Good on him for this but it doesn't make him my friend.

    Thing is you have to question why we'd then do more business with a club that still owes us money unless they paid it all upfront?

    YT will get a right bollocking when the board see the statement he's sneaked on to the Web site.

    A superb statement that I found genuinely moving. At last Barnsley Football Club is standing up for itself and representing the passion and commitment and integrity of its community. I don't think I've ever been more proud to be a supporter of this club...

    The thing is we are historically used to having owners who are Barnsley born and bred and never doubting their motives and loyalty.
    We cannot expect a group of people who come all around the world to have the same passion for the club as we have
    They have made an investment in BFC and yes it is about money, but that doesn’t mean that they are a bunch of rogues or that they are acting immorally.
    These people might have come in and thrown a lot of money around chasing the dream, as envisaged by YN at the time and then cut and run when it failed to materialise which is what appears to have occurred at Wigan. But they did not.
    They have made mistakes which the statement acknowledges. The coming season will show whether or not they have learnt from them.

    I'm sure he'll not lose too much sleep over that.

    Would have been a better statement if they had highlighted the "internal mistakes" cos those words could mean anything.

    You'll not have to wait until next season to be disappointed again, it will happen in the summer.
