Seems like Mvoto had agreed terms with Donny and featured in the majority of the their pre-season friendlies. http://www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk...rovers-mvoto-in-shock-barnsley-move-1-5882825 “I had a talk with the manager, I like his project and everything he said. “I just wanted to come to Barnsley.” Love IT!
1996-97, we pinched Matty Appleby from under Sheff Utd's nose, much to their fans' disgust. It's an omen I tell you, an omen!
Brilliant! How good is it being a Barnsley supporter at the minute! This is the kind of crap that would normally happen to us
McIndoe, Shackell, Mvoto, the league 1 results between us finally put to bed with our results against them at championship level, John Ryan's bullsh*t tongue falling out, well... wedging itself's up Barnsley's arse now and again when he's back pedalling. View's looking good o'er Dearne.
In 2000/2001 we pinched Lee Crooks right from under Huddersfield's nose and er, um........... Still hopefully this will be a good signing, bit happier with the defence now, still think we're a bit short of cover on the right hand side though.
Weve certainly got options. Finally starting to see bobby losing grip now on a regular place but certainly we got back up.
more excited about this than the Nyatanga signing. we need a striker and we're set to go. first time in many a season that our manager has filled all of the gaps and built a decent squad, credit to him.
"it's because we have something better lined up" It sounds like Mvoto didn't choose to sign for an established Championship club with an inspiring young manager, over Donny. It was just a case of Donny pulling out of the deal when they had a bid for Vincent Kompany accepted.
such is my knowledge of Premier League football, I've just had to google Vincent Kompany! Really thought it was someone Donny were after! Chuffing idiot!
