    I am beginning to think none of our targets either don't want to sign for us or their clubs won't part with them.

    It's what the fans want to hear. Might sell another season ticket on the strength of it.

    Mixed information coming out of Oakwell I think. Alan Nixon said we were close but LJ said recently we were in discussions but not close to a signing. Not sure what's going on at the moment with regards recruitment and it seems some people are making Holgate a scapegoat, whether fair or not.

    Personally I don't want to hear anything from them unless there's something to announce. Seems to be a sense of entitlement in a lot of modern football fans though.

    See the posts regarding Holgate leaving before we can bring anyone in.

    I don't think Alan Nixon is helping very much.

    I dont think fecking twitter is helping! Or facebook or any of the social media ! All it does is dive the fans to want to know everything at all times. It was a lot better when all our signings were done behind closed doors the announced in the Chronicle on Friday morning !
    Now there is a need to know the second anything happens, its a ******** world we live and people castigate Ben for being part of it !

    Who exactly is this Alan Nixon anyway, some kind of psychic? Is he talking to spirits to give him the info, or just drinking the spirits?

    Journalist for what paper? Chronicle? How come he thinks he gets the news before any other journalists or anyone else for that matter? He sleeping with LJ's sister?

    Sounds like he's been around most of the big papers at some stage but most of his tips are posted on twitter
