In advanced talks with Brian Howard according to the Chronicle. Also still interested in Conor Hourihane. #BarnsleyFC
Re: well what ? according to the chronicle....ah! if there's any shred of truth in it, a big backward step for me.
Non contract or 6 month see if we can get him fit and firing not a big gamble adds experience and class if it comes off and if not then fair enough. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
Not sure what to think. Part of me thinks good call; bit of familiarity and a class player with something to prove. Whilst the other part of me can't help me comparing our situation; the team we beat 8 years ago to go up. They are preparing for another crack at the Prem with a class squad. We are starting back out in that league again with ...... Brian Howard. It's like nothing has happened for 8 years.
If it's a player we really believe in we occasionally dish out a 9 month contract. It's the pregnancy strategy.
With the type and calibre of signings we'll make now were L1 fodder Bri would be a good signing IMHO. Be good for the dressing room aswell. Not a complete stranger as we all know, and let's be right here, he's got ability aswell. How these last few years have altered him we'll maybe find out. But I for one would welcome him back with open arms.
He's been in Sophia of late but apparently there weren't paying him so he sacked them off. I'd be happy to have him back, he loved this club. Well, until he fcked off for more money like.
