    Long term strategic partnership or something similar by the looks of it.

    Translation:-

    "FC Thun from the Berne highlands and the Pacific Media Group have agreed a long term strategic partnership"

    I'll try to find the link and see what it says.

    Link here https://fcthun.ch/de/News#news-entry-3225

    Too much for me to translate but auto-translate should work. Also, on Twitter if you search for FC Thun there are several other tweets with other links about it.

    Barnsley rose in the first year after the takeover by PMG in the English Championship (2nd league)
    FALSE - Barnsley were in the championship when they took over. After year one we were in league 1

    Under the leadership of the PMG, Nice qualified for the first time in its history for the Champions League.
    FALSE - Nice were in the same competition years ago.

    In addition a new training and training center was built.
    FALSE - The training ground was build by the previous owners. It just happened to have the final brick laid under these charlatans.

    Does this all tie in with James registering a company recently?

    Theory
    James Cryne owns the database
    Conway and co pay him for the use of it
    Conway and co then sell that data to FC thin

    The only losers there are Barnsley FC as we are so rigid in using the database but now have to compete with FC thun for players as they have access to our USP. Can our pool of players actually get any worse?

    Spot on. I've just tweeted FC Thun and pointed out how strange it was that the story of our relegation, selling our best players after promotion, and our current record and league position, were not included in the press release about the partnership.

    It's close to Interlaken and, with the best will in the world, a damn sight more attractive than Barnsley.

    2.3 million quid for 5% of the club, seems a bit steep!
