    By the ballax. I feel we need to go steady what we say?

    if they leave, what do we do?

    who’s gonna want to take over us? I assure you the won’t be a que to take over an old small mining town in South Yorkshire.

    I can’t keep my words in either...It’s so sad what we’ve become. Including me we need to be careful what we wish for.

    They've taken us all for fools.

    I reckon so far they’re all ‘up on the deal’

    For all their collective wealth we may as well be owned by somebody with modest wealth who actually cares about the club and shares the vision and ambition of the fans.

    To be honest we might as well be ran by somebody that's got nothing.

    It's not as if the money we are using has come from anywhere but from the club anyway.

    Millionaires, billionaires or tinpot makes no difference.

    At least if it was someone who was tinpot and connected to Barnsley the feelings amongst us may be taken into account.

    To give someone the tools to do a job and expect miracles I've no idea who would want such a job

    It has to be said, when you pick apart the lack of investment or significant commercial progress, there's absolutely no reason a consortium of fans would be likely to do any worse than our current owners. They'd be working with the same resources.

    Just a shame we haven't got the millions they'd want to sell the club.

    Absolutely spot on! Not a penny has come from their pockets yet and it won’t we’d be no worse off owner by local fruit n veg stall.

    How did they fund the initial purchase of the club?

    I think it’s called a ‘leveraged buyout’. Not that I’ve seen anything to substantiate this.
