It’s all about making money, we sign players with development potential, and sell on value, it doesn’t always work out for the players at our club, but we’re getting it right more often than not, but also 3 examples of players that haven’t worked out in the last two years would be, Malik Wilkes...

I’m not sure pal, but I know the recruitment committee are trying to bring in players on contracts in every window 3or4 in January 5or6 in summer, so we’re not having to replace 10 at a time anymore, last summer we brought in 16 players because we’d had to sell half our squad due to contract...

we give up possession, we allow teams have 70% of the ball, but they don’t have many shot or shots on target. We’re grafting all the time, theirs no stats for what he does, closing down and positioning himself so players can’t pass to where they want to, you’ll see lots of sideways and backwards...

we’ve spent a million quid this week. I think the major reason will have been we don’t do loans if we can help it. We will have tried for a permanent deal, at an affordable price, once we knew it wasn’t happening we’ve moved on.It’s seen as a waste of a squad place, if we’re not going to get...

wish we’d a team full of players that cost £57M on £175k a week with two league titles under their belt.

I try to stay clear of that site because it’s a lunatic asylum. But I’ve just read that link, and one of them makes an excellent point, sums up my feelings too. Whilst I think James is the best player I’ve seen in a Barnsley shirt in the past 15 years or so. (obviously John Stones as gone on to...

You’re assuming our club wanted to keep him. Theirs nothing to say they did.

I gave up totally for about 6 year from 2004, for the last 10 years I’ve smoked when I have a drink, I only drink when I go to away games and races so I’ve not had a drink in a boozer or a cig since Cheltenham Gold Cup day last March.

Bet you’re turning onto a fat fücker by now then

😂🤣😂😘

If we can’t sign our first choice, we’ll loan someone in rather than just sign any old shite, but priorities are to sign permanent players were possible, last season we loaned a RB from Red Bull Germany, as soon as we got our first choice, we sent him back. All last summer we tried and failed to...

We don’t have any now pal, if we can help it we tend to steer clear, just shows how good he is for us to break our stance on loans to have signed him. Most clubs at this level are littered with loans we have very few.

not sure, their tends to be a lot of moaning and using squad size as an excuse for failings if they do. With us us their all pushing for first team, we don’t tend to get many injuries but we’re pretty well covered compared to most if we do.

the first team and under 23s play in first team and under 23s, we don’t have loan players so we use both squads, if we get injuries we use players from under 23s as replacements, because they’re ready to go because they’ve been playing together.

we’re constantly improving and selling players, they see the lad that’s two years in front of them playing regularly and then moving to clubs that pay bigger wages, and it’s all the motivation they need. It’s why they come here, we’ve a very good record of developing players to a standard we can...

we sign players that are under 23 for the first team and under 23s, and the majority play in both sides so they’re getting game time all the time so they’re always ready. They’re pretty much all pushing for first team.

depth of our squads unreal for our budget. We’ve got 40+ players that are all in the mix for the first team squad.

He’s not had any injuries this season, but he’s been looked after. I know most will be surprised by our form, but our fans that watch us week in week out were expecting a comfortable season like this.

John Stones and Danny Drinkwater are premier league winners, and I’m telling you James is the best player we’ve had in the last 15 years, that’s how good he his pal.

😂🤣😂🤣 you won’t need two holding midfielders with him in your side pal
