He always runs while others walk;
He acts while other men just talk.
He looks at this world and wants it all;
So he strikes like moneyball.

He knows the meaning of success;
His needs are more so he gives less.
They call him the winner who takes all;
And he strikes like moneyball.

Any woman he wants, he'll get;
He will break any heart without regret.

His days of asking are all gone;
His fight goes on, and on, and on.
But he thinks that the fight is worth it all;
So he strikes like moneyball.

One question SB

Just remember PC has said repeatedly that he would only sell the club to the "right" people
Has he done so?

That's two questions Ziles
1 As far as I know Patrick Cryne ez sold the club, Barnsley Council get heyf and Patrick the other £10 million. Considering he's owed £8 million by the club I wouldn't begrudge the modest £2 mill profit for his family.
2 No, but needs must.
