    A Chinese bloke has just burst into the Hecky Press Conference and rushed to grab the microphone.

    "Ho Lee F00k" cry the journalists.

    "Correct" sez the bloke. I am new owner.

    Ive said it many times Ponty, I still reckon Sessi would have done a much better job than Williams in that ball winning defensive midfield role.
    As for this takeover of the club, it sounds like its getting momentum now and isn't just idle gossip anymore. Worrying times ahead for the Tykes maybe.

    I'd be more worried if Sailor Sid off Barnsley Market bought the club for a jar of sherbert lemons and a bag of cola cubes .

    I hope he ( Williams) hasn't signed one of them silly play every week deals Roma. What scares me most is we've spent 300k on a lad in Mallan seemingly with world at his feet. Now home sickness or not one of best remedies for me is getting out on pitch n' strutting your stuff. How dis heartening must it be for lad seeing Williams n' Potts faffing about like pott pri cks n' not getting a look in?

    Same sentiment applies to Bird and Kay mate. Some serious issues regarding pecking order for me.

    Controversial I know but Hecky's tactics n' team selections are leaving alot to be desired. As they were last season. If memory serves me correct Bradshaw hardly kicked a ball until october. Thus far this season with support he's had and service it's a miracle he's got three goals.

    Takeover cant come soon enough for me. Offer Hecky his academy job back.

    Yes its a bit controversial Ponty, but I was starting to think the same about Hecky last season and I didn't want to just put it all down to the 'January window' excuse again.
    Id like to know once and for all if he is the one who has the final say on players, because theres this niggling feeling that somebody else is pulling those particular strings.
    We're not giving ourselves the best possible chance of survival if we insist on this plan, the plan where all potential great signings will be ignored simply because they are beyond the 25 yr old age bracket. This is a ridiculous and naive idea and I bet it frustrates the hell out of Hecky.

    And as you say give him his old academy role back again, who would you want to see as manager/head coach then ?.

    Hecky doesn't have the final say , he's one voice within the group .

    Just getting rid of Hecky doesn't work unless the whole group goes with him .

    Look he's had the heart and soul ripped out of his team and he's had to replace them with lower league inexperienced players , who wouldn't struggle under those circumstances .

    It's a strange one Acido because I agree with the up and coming model mate. Someone whose always struck me as firm n' fair n' good with money is Paul Tisdale at Exeter. He could do worse than having Steve Perryman as his advisor here too. However, that would be under current model. If we're taken over maybe someone like Gian Luca Vialli. He loves Oakwell afterall
