    When Danny says, 'he isn't yet in his prime, I think he means that he is not fully match-fit yet.' Could be a good 'un, but hardly likely to be signed and fit for today, I would think.

    Absolutely crackers that we've given someone a lengthy trial whilst he's still contracted to his current club. What if PAOK want a fee for him? We've wasted a trial then

    He will not be fit enough for championship as yet. Why we need unfit has beens I do not know. That is the trouble with Barnsley at present, we are reaping the rewards of the cheap option and keep fetching unsuitable players in. It's like going to auction sales. Get one thing of quality, not a load of cheap rubbish

    It will more than likely only be a deal to end of the season as well so if he does do well he'll be off elsewhere.

    With Barnsleys track record of these sort of signings he will not kick a ball. He will be sat on subs bench all season

    Thought that was a weird thing to say, he peaked about 5 years ago. Obviously I haven't seen much of him but when English players go abroad it's usually the first step towards retirement.

    That's because we haven't got a pot to piss in. Huddersfield have just spent 1.2million on Nakhi Wells and we have to rely on loans and freebies because we've an 81 man squad.

    I wouldn't exactly say we haven't got a pot to piss in but yes you're right mate we haven't got a billionaire that wants to sink his wealth in to us either so unfortunately if that means having to drop to league one and surviving then so be it, rather that than doing a Portsmouth and living beyond our means.

    Wasn't Hendrie 33 when we signed him?

    Not saying Lawrence is comparable to Hendrie but give the guy a chance.

    Interesting to hear Danny's thoughts on age. Flicker would have had him sent to glue factory at 32
