    This is exactly why I keep banging on about fishing in either quieter, more obscure or unchartered waters - either here or abroad...

    but even then, the agents could then tout them around to other clubs

    season long loans looming? We could call ourselves the Loan Rangers?

    I don't know why anyone is surprised. Stewart is always talking about breaking our transfer record.

    We never sign anyone for money. Ever. It's a bit embarrassing that he keeps flapping his gums every year about top ten and record signings. Remember him saying premier league after we'd won the playoffs? Also embarrassing. Breaking our transfer record isn't even a big deal considering it's so paltry.

    He needs to shut up, for once in his life, about 'imminent substantial signings'. It's not the reason we don't sign anyone, but it just looks embarrassing and it's so frustrating when we fail to sign anyone.

    I had zero faith we were going to sign Bradshaw, Foster-Caskey or Gregory.

    It was the club that pulled out of the bradshaw deal as the price inflated but yet prepared to spend 1.5 million on a 27 year old from same league this coming from Tony Stewart

    3 bids went in for Gregory 900k 1.2m and 1.4 stubbs told Stewart not to bid any higher.stewert also states he would have bid higher if stubbs wanted him too but stubbs like Stewart said wanted value for money

    I agree with "don't pay silly money" some players need to get back to reality and stop living in the celeb fantasy world.

    Barnsley have ambition. They are willing to pay we aren't. Simple really. Same old Rotherham nothing changes.
    All this talk of a top 10 finish is just Bullsh1t.
    With the team we have we wouldn't finish top ten in League 1.

    My thoughts exactly.
    I can understand the Gregory one. He's not worth half of what they were asking but Bradshaw is well worth the risk.
    I don't know what Barnsley are paying but I bet it's a lot less than £1.5 million. It makes me wonder if we really wanted these players.
    Oh well it's down to plan C now. Campbell-Ryce and Matt Tubbs.
