I thought idea of early bird season tickets was to get players in early, nearly a month now and we've not even re-signed anyone let loads go same as other team hundreds of out of contact players and we're still waiting Good luck to the club getting people to buy early next year
Because they've not told us they have, if they've agreed deals they're done tell us now show us early bird as worked in the way they said it would if not people will hold on next year
I'm not saying this is correct but I have been told that Danny is on holiday so there is no chance we're going to sign anybody for the next couple of weeks. Its the same at a lot of clubs.
Listen to the Mansford interview from the weekend. It's all in there Sent from my GT-I9300 using Forum Runner
We've offered new deals to those we want. Mansford said we would be talking to targets this week. And because we have a good idea of our budget, Danny knows what he can spend.
I'm probably putting two and two together here and getting five, but a few days ago a poster suggested the name of Alan Sheehan of Notts County as a potential target. The lad's contract is up this Summer and he's turned down the offer of a new one year deal from County. I wonder whether he's one of the players Ben Mansford was referring to during his radio interview at the weekend who Danny would be holding talks with this week? I'm probably just rambling, as per usual!
probably in the last week before the season starts you know the form at Oakwell, why should it alter now.
Re: probably in the last week before the season starts Alan Sheehan........a left back who has played for Leicester........why does that worry me?
Re: probably in the last week before the season starts No idea, mate(!) It's pure speculation on my part, nothing more. It doesn't bother me where a player has played, though, in all seriousness. Nor where we sign them from. All that concerns me is how they perform for Barnsley.
Re: probably in the last week before the season starts Yep......we just wanna see some pride in wearing that beautiful BFC shirt.
Works the same every year, tbh. I'm also no expert but I think most players sign contracts now until the end of May, or sometimes end of June, in case of the playoffs etc. etc. So I would say there are no out of contract players at the moment anyway. So all we can be doing is looking at who is unavailable come June 1st. So I'm pretty sure nearly everyone is on holiday, as it's probably the only chance they get.
I got my early bird season ticket cos it was cheaper - no other reason. The transfer merry-go-round doesn't usually start till players contracts are up and you have a better idea of what is available.
As I've just tried to explain, they are still officially contracted and they are on holiday. So no-one can sign anyone, it's the same at all clubs and it's the same every single year. If we haven't signed anyone by the end of July, then you can start panicking.
