    Pretty common knowledge .

    Very common knowledge.
    Very.

    He told me personally and implied on Radio Sheffield it was the CEO.
    Beane FFS 🙄😄😂
    Big knowledge of soccer players has arrr Billy.

    Beane to my knowledge has had absolutely nothing to do with Barnsley whatsoever - other than a share holder.
    I don’t think he’s actually been to Barnsley.

    Why do you think we signed so many Austrians at one time ?

    We can discuss those failures.
    But before we do we should discuss the recruitment years of Mido and players such as him.
    With players like Trippier and Drinkwater etc etc etc coming through the revolving door of one year contracts and loans and missed opportunities.
    Patrick then changes the recruitment system that eventually sees us 5th in the Championship with the cheapest squad in that division.
    Then the fans favourite Conway finally knocks the train off the track.
    But recovery of 4th in the 1st Division with player expenses that should only see us mid table.
    And now £8 million in the bank from player sales.

    But if you want to concentrate on the relatively cheap players that have failed at the club then we can do.

    Yeh God forbid we'd have a future multi times England international whose played and scored in a World Cup semi final plus another who won the PL on loan again .

    We didn't have the cheapest squad in the championship when we finished 5th .

    Trouble is with you YN is you like to think you know more what goes on or has gone off at Oakwell than anybody else because you shake hands and go to forums .

    I wasn't the late Patrick Cryne's biggest fan by any means but he had this club in the championship for 7 consecutive seasons , reached an FA Cup semi final and we went to Wembley twice in 6 weeks winning both times .

    Now you can big up your 5th place covid championship season all you want but you ain't getting anywhere near the Cryne tenure for actual achievement .

    Relatively cheap ?

    Malik Wilks £1.2m
    Patrick Schmidt £1m
    Luke Thomas £1.2m
    Bambo Diaby £600k
    Ritzmaier £400k
    Radlinger £300k
    Sibbick £400k

    There's £5m pyssed away right there .

    You saw the fan forum YN, we don’t have £8m in the bank, we had only received approx £1 of those fees at the time of the forum. That’s why we fish in lake free agent!

    This lot will struggle to keep us in THIS LEAGUE for seven years.
    We all know how they will manage the recruitment if they somehow get lucky and get up to the the Championship…….. Cheap buys, . With the same result as last time.
