    Exactly. So, have the council purchased the other 50%. Seems unlikely in the current financial climate.

    Thinking out loud........
    A sign that the Crynes are selling up doesn't strike me as good news. Rightly or wrongly, I kind of viewed them as the safety net stopping the Chiens & Conways of the world from plundering our assets. I guess the Council could take the same role?
    Dunno? Smacks of more uncertainty than owt else.
    We dunt like change.

    Given that I've been waiting nearly 16 years now for Leon Constantine to sign from Port Vale I'll believe it when I see it :D

    Heard we are doing STs as loss leaders for economic refugees ........
    Or 'lapsed Wednesday fans' as they are known.

    Plenty on Porktalk looking for alternatives next season. Get them signed up.

    I was thinking same Crynes have their critics but at least we know their one of us with the clubs best interests at heart. Give me them over conman and chien anyday. If true and they sold their 50% of the land wouldn't be surprised to see them sell their shares.

    If I was a council tax payer in Barnsley I’d be wondering if it’s a useful allocation of finite resources.
