    The much-travelled DR Congo-born front man, 25, had recently expressed an interest in making his loan move from Gillingham to Valley Parade permanent. </p>

    But he will now return to the Gills when his loan spell ends on 1 January. </p>

    &quot;We've been paying a good part of his wages up to now and can't really afford the whole lot,&quot; Bantams manager McCall told the Telegraph &amp; Argus. </p>

    &quot;His agent led me to believe that Gillingham were looking for us to pay the full amount. </p>

    &quot;I'm disappointed with Gillingham as I've called them three times and nobody's had the decency to get back to me. </p>

    &quot;And from a team point of view, I need to strengthen in different areas.&quot; </p>

    Ndumbu-Nsungu had scored six goals in 18 league appearances for City. </p>

    On-loan duo Nathan Joynes and Tom Harban have already left Valley Parade to return to Barnsley after the conclusions of their loan spells. </p>

    But McCall hopes to keep a third Barnsley loanee, Paul Heckingbottom, for longer - while midfielder Kyle Nix's short-term deal expires on 31 December. </p></font></td></tr></tbody></table>

    Davey's influence is spreading. No Barnsley lads anywhere near the team.

    whilst admitting Hecky is not the best player to ever wear the shirt lets not forget he is a Barnsley lad who had the bottle to step up to take (and convert) a penalty in the play off final at Cardiff....

    Cheers Hecky and good luck...(not all people who frequent this site are morons).... (clap)

    He never mentioned Howie! He's right though, Hecky showed a lot of bottle to step up and take that penalty.

    Good

    None of the local lads moved on by Simon Davey have been signed up by another Championship club, which would suggest he was right in letting them go. If a player has the required ability, then it shouldn't matter where he was born. Just because a player comes from the Barnsley area doesn't mean necessarily he's going to be good enough. The likes of Pat Howard, Mick McCarthy & David Hirst were selected because they had the ability, not because they came from Dodworth, Worsbrough & Cudworth.

    RE: Good

    agree totally but why do some people have to be so derogatory to the lad, cant we thank him for his services and wish him luck instead of berating him...bet these people are the ones who slag off the likes of "Sir" Parky and Darren Gough...

    I always thought Barnsley folk looked after their own...obviously not on this site....

    Absolutely

    Hecky SHOULD be thanked for his services to the club (thinking of the Play Off penalty in particular) and wished the best for his future. I don't understand why anyone would have a problem with that.
