    Looks like he was present at GG's unveiling in Nice, check out the official OGC Nice twitter link below. He is certainly getting a hard time off their fans, comments about the lack of budget, asking if he is for real and same old sh*t, no reassurances given and also looks like both he and GG were questioned about bringing in experienced players - sound familiar?
    Nice play In Ligue 1 this evening so wonder if he will be at Oakwell for tomorrow afternoon's game. I know he attended the Oxford game but anyone know if he has been to Oakwell since the opening day of the season?

    I don't get why Chien says England not Barnsley so he could have mentioned his club over here, instead of being a general quote of the country......

    ' Cos they won't have a "dolly blue" where Barnsley is, is my guess.

    They won't if we arent mentioned over there, which is cheaper than a Times Square billboard. Instead of saying Ganaye did very well in England, mention how he did a great job for Barnsley Football Club.

    All the major players we're at the Portsmouth game, so that's twice this season.

    "In England" = Appointment sought out from a different country
    "In Barnsley" = Taken the easy option and got someone from our other club

    Could be wrong

    For an owner based at the other side of the world he's attended a fair few games since taking over. Fair play to him.

    He might not like playing golf, lazing abart on beaches, gooin to Formula One racing or buying yachts. He might actually like it slumming wi genuine, warm hearted, real people?

    If I was the owner I wouldn’t go within 500 miles of Oakwell for 2 months after the transfer window.

    Why's that then? I think they've done exceptionally well over the last two transfer windows not to sell our assets and give us a real chance of getting an immediate return to The Championship.

    Because of the amazing number of spoilt bairns that’ll still be bleating on about not investing on players. There was so much of it at the Oxford game it became a bloody distraction.

    Can't imagine there are many Menace fans on here, and possibly no one who has ever heard of them. But if you have, or you were a fan of the Oi! movement and know the song by one of a thousand other acts who covered it: every time you hear the name Chien Lee, don't you just want to sing

    You're full of ****, ****, **** ****, ****, ****.

    THE ACCOUNTS
    “I can guarantee you that every penny earned, especially in terms of sales, has been reinvested in the club. In the last three years, we have invested record sums in the transfer market: 14 million, 21 million and 27 million Euros. Each year, it’s increasing.”

    Doesn't mean anything without the full figures as of course he knows . its like bookmaker talk.
    They bought nobody this transfer window even though Paul Conway promised supporters there would be signings.
    We have sold 3 million and bought around 1 million according to people on here
    if we sell 20 million pounds of players in the next window and spend 2 million on players that would be a 100 % increase and everybody will be happy yes.
