Good point: where has the 500K for Flinders gone? Other problems?

I was heppy for Scott to go for the money we got as i thought we would use the money to strengthen NOW. We could have held onto him for the future and also possibly not lost the games from Vitos blunders - for a start! Why sell him and then not strengthen.

Summat is not right behind the scenes a tell thi!

We'l sign box office players / PC said that not shep
Money is available / we dont have any money
Weve spoke to Shuker and he will sign next week / shuker didnt get back to us and so weve withdrawn the offer

We need some answers and explanation to just what is going on down there!

Why have we not strengtheneed the obvious areas of need?
Why does Richie keep going defensive when he openly states we cant play like that?
Why is feckin Devaney getting 90mins every week when hes obviously of form?
Why did we sign Kyle Nix?
Why did we sign Healey? - and play him in a derby when you said he wasnt fit?
Why keep signing for the future - further increasing the wage bill when we need experienced players NOW!?

 

Mr Sheep dog

can you answer these questions please?

 

I'll answer the last one ,

we need QUALITY!</p>

Why does everyone think experience means quality?</p>

 

simple

paying off debts as it always seems to at Barnsley. Been supporting them for 30 years and that's nearly always been the case.</p>

 

RE: I'll answer the last one ,

We need someone of proven championship experience.

 

and SKY TV money for 2 televised semi finals

and SKY TV money for Final

and Promotion money

and sponsorship money

and Mcphails wages

and Season Ticket money.....

 

Championship QUALITY is what we need.

There are umpteen players with championship experience that I wouldnt have in the reserves let alone the 1st team.

 

Have we not had to pay anything out then?

 

I agree fully on all your points.

 

and conlons wages

Vaughans too, and Carbons, and even Kells and thats just to name a few.

 

REerhaps the £500.000 is in a bank earing interest ?

waitng for the right spend. Allen from the Owls has just said that he knows the wage bill at Barnsley is only HALF of what it is at Wendys. He was full praise for what is happening in terms of our football. (It was scary listening to him it sounded like a I want AR pitch) but what I am trying to get at is its not the transfer fee we stuggle with, its keeping to a wage structure, break it to bring someone in and the complete team would disintigrate.

 

RE: simple

aye same here, but in the last 30 years how many times have the club had a £5.3m deficit ?

 

Were we not due to break even this financial year

without the play offs/promotion/flinders sale/tv money/mcphails wages/conlons wages/burns wages/vaughans wages/kells wages/flinders wages/no coaching staff/extra season ticket money/extra tv money/larger away followings etc</p>

some small negatives</p>

Mcindoe &amp; togwell fees &amp; wages</p>

Healy wages</p>

servicing some (mangeable last season without the above revenues) debts</p>
