Why would we pay someone who had a decent 8/9 games to be one of our highest earners? Getting so bored of Barnsley fans. Why would we overpay for a player who didn't perform most of season??? If he didn't have that good couple of weeks towards end of season, nobody would be moaning.
Parker Aylot Cooper Winnal Cole Ward Hignet Marcelle many more will spring to mind. Who is going to remember Humphrys. Be soon forgot .
I’m fairly certain it’ll be announced today but we do love to delay things oli Shaw was here a week before he got announced cooper was here a few days before he was announced so we have previous for it
Also pines was here over a week before we announced him and I watched him have his medical a week before announcement so just have some patience please been confirmed by multiple people it’s definetly done it’s just down to the club to announce it
Maybe their holding the good news until after some bad news e.g. DKD sold...bit of a Government tactic..
Are you sure you should be releasing information from your "privileged" position before it's official? Have the club given you permission?
Connell - disappointing, but maybe best for all parties. Earl - personally I rate him much higher than most on here, but he's been a regular part of a very leaky defence for quite a while. DKD - along with Russell the most important player in the squad. Hopefully he'll not be going anywhere.
In fairness to Luca his posts bring positivity to the BBS which is better than the prophets of gloom who never miss a turn of attacking the club.
Most people see through this though and this sort of tactic, if indeed it is, just brings about critics, in today's world most people want everything yesterday unfortunately, stop faffing quick photo with the scarf job done.
True. Can’t understand why the club dont slip all their news out like this. The forum would be like Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory. ;-) …. Unless of course the story is about administration that is.
Are you sure he's in a privileged position? I've never seen him claim that. Although I haven’t seen him correct people either. I believe people have got the wrong impression. Seems to me he's a very passionate Barnsley fan who gathers information from lots of sources, and asks lots of questions of journalists, sports writers and even club employees, but he's not someone with a mole at the club.
He did say he watched Pines have his medical. Maybe he was outside, stood on a box, having a sneaky peek through the fitness suite window?
Or Pines did some of his medical outside? I dunno... https://barnsleyfc.org.uk/threads/latest-update.332325/page-12#post-3345917
I used to go the college scholarship programme so I saw them training quite a lot pines had his medical on indoor Astro while we was in lesson
