Barnsley did some business early in a transfer window.... yeah I know its never gonna happen. 11th hour finger nails stuff as per usual.
I can't remember us carrying out any early purchases, summer or January Windows. Happy to be corrected
Like I said - Happy to be corrected Yes there are a few, but not many. Bet there are a damn sight more last minute ones.
It’s almost like that’s the standard for most clubs and not something Barnsley do to annoy you personally
If only we hadn't already taken a couple of players on loan (Woodrow, Styles at least) who signed permanent contracts for us at the start of the month.
Those deals were done in the last window, because we left one until the last minute and were nearly caught out. The permanent signing was always a formality. It just does not make sense to bring in early if we can afford it and the requirement is there.
Players tend to move at the end of the window because teams are trying to cling onto their players and also receive the highest possible fee. A merry-go-round then ensues hence the last minute rush. It's common at every other club, can't fault BFC IMO.
