6000+ coming from Derby

RE: aye

Evidence??????????????????????????????

 

What do you mean by 'evidence?'

Can you not read? These were all confirmed on Barnsley's OFFICIAL website.

 

RE: How do you know such personal details about the reasons? nt

Yes tykeman, i'm disputing that darren ward went to sheffield united on trial. That is exactly what I mean't when I said we failed to sign him.

I will also state that we failed to keep hold of McPhail. That obviously means that i'm disputing the fact that he went to cardiff.

 

RE: How do you know such personal details about the reasons? nt

It was in the public domain at the time.
Sheff U commented on it, we commented on it. If you cant accept facts then tough

McPhail obviously wanted more money than we could afford to pay, would you not do the same in his situation. Do you think McPhail is better than Brian Howard in that position because I dont.

You seem to have forgotton to comment on the Foster situation now that the explanation has been given.

Strange one!

 

Yes, he went there on trial but they didn't sign him!

He was supposed to play in a friendly for us at Bradford PA but he didn't even bother turning up! And that was after he had gone to train at Bumhole Lane. Says a lot to me that he didn't even bother keeping his options open with us when he had the chance!

 

Why do Away fans not sit in the Ponty end, and if necesscary, half the west. The worst thing is, teams like Sunderland come to Oakwell,pack out North and half of west, and the away players come out to the noise of thier fans! How de-motivating is that for Barnsley? They should come out to the noise of |Barnsley fans, as they're at Oakwell.

 

What are you talking about?

What is there to comment on?

I said that we tried to sign several players but was unsuccesful (which disproves the theory that the manager refused to sign anybody) and you tell me that I need to comment on stephen foster because you've given me a reason why he didnt sign?

Should we cross him off the lis of people that andy ritchie wanted in his team? Find a good excuse why we didnt secure the signings of anybody and we can cross them all off the list can't we.

Is this conversation going to go like this?


you: Andy ritchie didnt want to sign any players.

me: what about foster?

you: bereavement in family meant he didnt sign, you cant include him.

me: jay tabb?

you: pet dog ran away so can't include him either, sorry.

me: constantine?

you: was having his chest waxed on the day he was meant to come in for talks. cross him off your list please.

me: but ritchie wanted him.

you: Chest....waxed....cross...off...list....

me: sorry. ritchie wanted to sign darren ward.

you: so did sheffield united. You can't include targets of other teams in your list.

me: can I not?

you: no of course not, that's stupid.

me: ok how about Whittingham?

you: his name was too long to fit on the shirts. totally unrealistic to include him.

me: eddie johnson?

you: Eddie? can you really see us signing someone called eddie? nope. thought not.

me: ok, i'm all out of names.

you: i told you ritchie didnt want to sign anyone

 

RE: Yes, he went there on trial but they didn't sign him!

I agree we didnt want him with an attitude like that.

Anyway it looks as though he will have the last laugh having signed for Sunderland.

 

Really, so it was much better to go without a reserve keeper

for half the season then? Nose, face cut it off Gordon!

 

Evidence? That's right, ignore the facts again. Like Supertyke

says, all those are on the Official site yet all you can come up with is give me evidence! ffs, what do you need, a written statement, hand delivered from GS before it can be a fact?. Mind, you might get that eh?

 

as 1 of the 6000+ coming on 31/03, could you advise on car parking and where is the best place to get a drink ?

 

If you don't want teen goons bouncing on their toes and inviting you to " come on then " , park up near the Metrodome and have a drink there - it's away fan friendly.

 

Big visitors car park at your end of the ground ....

.... Leisure centre 5 mins walk away with a bar, popular with away fans - town centre 5-10 mins walk away, can be dodgy in certain places but no club colours visible (and mouth's shut!) usually gets you in most places without any hassle

 

RE: Evidence? That's right, ignore the facts again. Like Supertyke

He might also be interested in this from the official site.

"The Board can confirm that offers have been made for players, one was Jay Tabb who elected to join Coventry City and another was a cash offer for an ex Scottish under 21 international which was rejected by his Club. Andy has the Board's backing to bring in new players which he is actively trying to do but only with players who will augment our current squad."

I forgot to include the scottish player. he can be added to the list.

 

thanks for the info. ( H )

RE: Really, so it was much better to go without a reserve keeper

It was AR that decided to go with the squad at that time

 

let get em seperated and stick some down near the ponty and our fans in the north part

eve things up a bit! Make a the game a bit more intersting! Probably suicidal as well.

 

How much choice was he left with though? nt

 

eh? nt
