I hope the potential new owners read this message board.
We have some really exciting times ahead if the potential new owners get hold of Barnsley.
But they need to be very careful that they don't throw the baby out with the bath water.
The 'baby' being the present directors and team management.
Ok - I suppose everyone will want to see Hecky and his staff remain.
But what about the directors?
It looks like PC is to remain on the board.
But what about the other two?
Many fans over the years have had a dig at Barry Taylor - but Barry has links to the FA - and PC wouldn't have him on the board if he wasn't valuable to the club.
Last but not least - what about Maurice Watkins?
For years - we have wondered where PC was getting all his advice from in relation to football matters e.g. appointment of managers etc.
Well it looks like it was coming from Maurice.
I think the new owners would be making a terrible mistake if they didn't allow the three present members of the board to continue on the board.

Don't just blurt that out - explain in detail where you believe the initial post is false or misleading ???
This should be interesting.

More of a fishing trip Ziles. Nudge is known forrit on BBS.

More of a case of introducing fish into the pond so people with something to say can discuss them.
Still waiting for an explanation of why any of the initial post was a wind up?
And you can add - why any of the initial post is anything to do with fishing?
Or has things reduced to such as an extent on here - that it's just become a mud slinging exercise?
Especially at those that don't post very often.

"Still waiting".
A bet thaz got thi arms folded, bottom lip art and feet stamping.
A touch on the rude side Nudge.

Taylor would stay as he's life president but he's not involved in any decision making anyway.
Watkins would go I'd have thought

Thanks for the 'normal' thread.
I sincerely hope Maurice dosent go.
This fella has a finger in all sorts of pies.
Probably much more than what most Barnsley fans realise.
With what I can gather he's been a massive help to PC.
He would be a big loss.
Hopefully any new owner would realise this.

Just for starters

Managers appointed during MW's tenure
Mellon
Wilson
Johnson
Heckingbottom [incumbent & wasn't too hard to find]
Apart from PH not very impressive is it
Don't forget our fantastic buy from Germany for £500000 a certain Mr Jennings bought I believe on the doings of MW
