Barry walked out....

Yeovil fans claim that Barry was not under contract and therefore walked out with a nice signing on fee in his pocket. Evidently you got nothing!

Negotations with Barry started straight after the Exeter game.

True?

absiolute bullsht. Barry was contracted until the end of the season. If had waited until the end of the season we would have got nowt, so we took the twenty five quid whilst it was offered.

Also Twiss and Perkins were spoken to by our management but Perkins reckons he has a big move lined up for June and Twiss did not want the rigours of league football so stayed where he knew he would get none.

....so therefore it wasn't true.....was it?

Funny how these rumours start......especially when it's from official sources.

Barry has said himself it was the biggest decision of his life to choose whether to leave or not..He was under contract until the end of the season...The only bit true in your post is the negotiations...

Christies Child · 04-02-2006, 19:54

.....not according to a member of immeadiate family who was asked repeatably by Yeovil officials if he was under contract. Answer was a definate NO.

4th paragraph..

for negotions to start with a non contract player there has to be a weeks notice to the club. so either way its our decision to let him make his own decision, not just his erm decision.

denise · 04-02-2006, 23:13

why would any player leave off his own decision when STANLEY just about to play league football !!

Because he was signed by a league 1 team!!

shakermaker · 04-02-2006, 23:52

He had 6 months left on his Stanley contract - FACT
He was offered a 2 year contract by a League 1 club - FACT

which one would you choose?

denise · 05-02-2006, 02:09

sorry! didn't mean like it sounded. Meant that why did he not want to go up to league football as part of a champion squad ?

maccawozzagod · 05-02-2006, 10:03

Coley thought at the start of the season that Barry was not good enough or capable of playing 10 consecutive games in the conference. If you was Barry would you not question whether he would think you good enough for League 2? At the cheap end of professional football you have to take your contracts where you can before you end up unemployed. Good step for Barry moving up two divisions and playing in front of good sized crowds.

Christie's Child - you seem intent on stirring things up on here but it ain't gonna work. Even if Anthony had walked out as you claim, what would it matter. Whatever the circumstances he left in it really doesn't matter. He's gone, we've dealt with it & replaced him - end of story

Christies Child · 06-02-2006, 18:48

Sorry Accy Mad,
My info is CORRECT. Has been CONFIRMED as correct. Is already known to be CORRECT within Conference circles. Having been offered a contract 2 weeks ago, it was rejected and therefore was free to negotiate with ANY other club OUTSIDE of the Conference.

Diesel · 06-02-2006, 18:59

Confirmed by who? Some of the others from your knitting circle? Honestly mate, you wanna get a life. End of the day, I don't begrudge Barry moving to a bigger club in a league 2 divisions above us, whether we got anything for him or not. Good luck to the lad
