    .............. when the directors sold a first team player in Potts they have shouted out LOUD and CLEAR to all other football clubs in the football league .........
    ....... COME AND BUY OUR PLAYERS !!!!!!

    Naivety by the new owners of an English football club ....... which is now weighing VERY VERY HEAVY on some of the other players at Barnsley Football Club.

    I’ll be glad to get to February.

    We've just extended our unbeaten league run. Absolutely nothing is weighing heavy on the players. We can't win them all.

    I can’t disagree Nudge, I think we are definitely missing his engine in midfield.

    I have lost count of how many players we have sold during this window, oh hold on, one regular first team player and a fringe player who has struggled to hold down a regular starting place in the team. Get yourself to the doctors tomorrow Nudge and get that knee jerk sorted!!!

    It’s not the player.
    It’s the signal.

    Has it been confirmed that Potts had a release clause in his contract????? If he had a release clause then we would have had no choice if it was activated.

    Davies went looking for it midway through the first half.

    Banning Nudger was probably the worst thing to happen, he has definitely had too much time on his hands!

    Last time I checked our two top scorers with 26 goals between them were still here, so the shout couldn't have been that LOUD and CLEAR..............

    Could argue that brown wouldn't have started last two games if Potts was here. And he's played a crucial role in both those games. Don't think we miss him as much as some keep repeatedly stating.

    And how many players have we sold since Potts has gone? Perhaps the signals have been misread?

    I've never heard anyone at the club confirm this just roumors that he had a release clause.

    It’s not the sale.
    It’s the pressure that has come from that sale.
