  1. I'm no longer a ST holder and regardless of who we get home or away, whether or not I can realistically get a ticket, if the trust recommend a boycott that's what I'm doing and fans should follow suit. Follow their lead, Simple as that.
  2. Our ground / training facility maintenance is in the region of 1 million per season. Soon to increase with North Stand issues. Lack of sponsors - matchday / matchball which Barnsley don't have right now. Boycotts of merchandise, food & drink at the ground. The lack of a competitive squad right now. We need about 12 players. If not more should more sales follow. He can't pay signing on fees, agent fees, nothing. Away fan attendance substantially falling. Less revenue. As others have said, he's done mate. Whether or not so called investors are genuine or tyre kickers will become clear. You've just got to let it ride out.
  3. Save 50k with Bannan being fined two weeks wages for his red. #Dejphonomics
  4. Me and eldest were talking about similar tonight. I think you’ve not included solidarity & basic payments. He was losing circa 6.5m per year - of which 2.5m was an accounting trick of sorts for the ground rent. So we think he had to save 4m per season. We’ve lost 15 players inc loans saving circa 110k per week. With the embargo about to be lifted he will be able to bring in circa 4 players on the max 7k per week limit. If the takeover is really on, it’ll be more players than that. The next 3 weeks in August will be very telling .
  5. We could have been a contender, could have been a someone, if we’d have beaten ‘Ull
  6. He will know quite a few employees at SWFC. Whether THEIR info is correct is unknown.
  7. To be fair, he did sign big Nige. So not all bad !
  8. That’s because, from what DB has said, the suggestion isn’t very palatable if you’re from a DCperspective. Probably why he’s ignoring it.

  12. Admin by Friday. Prospective buyers no longer interested buying club as things stand but talking to DC about a back door stadium deal if they're the preferred bidder whilst in admin. DC wants 80 million as Rightmove says property prices increased in last few years in s6 area. Buyers only willing to pay 40 million, as it's a project. First team to enter Brinsworth tournament on Sunday. Graded pot 2 to avoid likes of Handsworth, Wickersley and Brunsmeer
  13. I think there is defo something in this. I bumped into an ex Sheff Utd player (we don’t know each other, chance) we got talking and Wednesday came up when he asked who I supported. He says some of “the lads” know a few of the Wednesday players and the chat was there was supposedly a player statement to be issued today, but the PFA has advised them not to do it. And the non payment of players is the tip of the iceberg. In essence, think of a supplier, any one of them. Not one has been paid in some cases for months.
  14. I bought a couple yesterday. Across all blocks there are 300-400 left according to ticket office. Sold just under 2.9k
  15. None were postponed mate that I was aware of but a few moved to Saturdays. This year really tricky as 16th it's cup weeks for all u7s-u11s and semi finals for quite a few u12s-u16s where ref appointments are needed.
  16. Apologies if covered on a thread elsewhere but I saw this and thought WTF. Is this for real ?!? https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1D8iBw6wgz/
  17. Other than Bannan, no decisions until promotion impossible. if we stay as we are, Valentin, Musaba & Smith. Everyone else release
  18. Wasn’t Moore out of contract ? Can’t see it being a payoff for him
  19. To put together a squad for the grand total of 3.1 million and be knocking on the door of the playoffs is nothing short of amazing by DR.
  20. What's the cash flow situation like. If we need reddies, he'll be gone for less
  21. Sometimes it’s difficult to read and digest the truth. Let’s be honest, their findings are hardly groundbreaking. We ALL know Lep Lane stand is an H&S issue. Dynamically risk assessed based on the opponent and their support, it’s been like this for years. Nothing will change for the foreseeable. That’s uncomfortable for a lot of people. But until it’s condemned, the status quo will not change.
  22. I hadn’t noticed at all until I took the photo but now I can’t unsee them. Wearing it though, even from a short distance they’re not visible so pretty decent. Way better than the home ones imo.
  23. I got 2 home and 2 away. The orange ones look great to be fair. The home ones are literally two different shirts it’s mad that they’re so different from the same place. But, 75 quid all in for 4 adult shirts and two kids full kits, isn’t bad at all.
