What's happened to Jayden Danns? He looked like he could develop into a similar chaos forward. Or they could even give more match time to Harvey Elliott. Heard rumours of a season’s loan to Sunderland. Danns is still only 19 and think Liverpool rate him quite highly so could be a good deal all roun...

He's on more than £12k a week. I've seen a number of different figures quoted and they're all between £20k and £30k a week, but he is at a Premier League team. He's spent the last 3 seasons on loan at the arse end of the Championship so I'd suggest that's approaching his ceiling so £12k is probably ...

We brought in 17 players that window (although Hector was a loan back after selling him to Chelsea). We then signed another 4 in January.

I think it predates social media. I think it started with the advent of 24hr sports newscasting and the need to have a constant drip feed of news. We've been conditioned to believe that no news is bad news. One of my favourite windows was 2015-16 where we seemed to be signing players out of nowhere ...

Twitter when we go 5 minutes without signing anyone




I know it's an oldie but it's a goodie.

I’ll accept Some of the language Couhig and co maybe hasn’t been the most helpful ‘Spectacular’ transfer window I think was one. But then it’s seems a bit of a cultural thing, Americans love their hyperbole. We’re a bunch of miserable cynical gits "Just watch who we sign next :!: " follow...

My money's on Eni Aluko.

Well, we have brought in 7 players with a few more rumoured to be on the go as well as tying up a load of new contracts. That's pretty ballsy activity for less than 4 weeks.

We were in the Premier League at the time, tbf.

Style matters a lot. If we want to maintain a high press like Selles did, Knibbs has to play. But if we're happy to be a bit deeper and focus on solidity, he could well be dropped or forced wide. Or maybe there is something in the transfer rumours, and we're preparing for a different style without ...

£7.5k is slightly above average for League 1 (bang on average if you include Birmingham and Wrexham from last year) but he's being paid that in the Championship. I doubt he'd command that in League 1, especially if Port Vale are the only other club interested. I guess he could sit out the last year ...

Big, quick and experienced, three things we lack up front. 1 in 3 would be 15 goals a season so given the goal threat in our midfield, would be a more than adequate return. There's a thread about him on the Barnsley forum and it's approx 70:30 in favour of resigning him if they had a chance. Apparen...

The median wage in League 1 is about £6k a week. That's £6¼m a year for a squad of 20 players. Revenue is about £10m a year so on median wages, that's 62% of our revenue on players' wages. The Academy costs £3-5m a year so when Couhig talks about finding additional investment or additional revenue s...

But that goes back to my point about expectations. Yes we have new owners but in the short term that just means that we're no longer digging the hole we're in any deeper. A month ago we had 5 players contracted beyond the end of the month, it's as much about getting the right players in and not ever...

Like I give a fcuk what the Twitter Twats think.

They're only on X because their brains can't cope with more than 280 characters in one thought.

Or male pattern baldness....

I think new ownership brings new expectations which aren't necessarily realistic. We started pre season wth 5 contracted players and whilst I think we definitely need another striker, we've got a solid squad. I don't think we'll do as well as last season because it's easier to play like it's your la...

Gus is to be trusted, just not with the mushrooms.

There is a thing on the Beeb Football site saying that the Premiership will allow the TV company covering the game to interview the substitutes as they exit the pitch (amongst other stupid ideas like letting the cameras onto the pitch to join in the goal scorers celebrations)…yeah great S$y/BBC int...

Quick and looks genuinely 2 footed. Difficult to properly judge from videos because 3Liga is a real mishmash of fallen giants and village teams but seems to have something about him.

Seems quite an out of the blue signing so I presume we've been scouting him for a while.
