I don't think we are short for midfielders...we have Boco, Brown and Rocky ready for makeshift midfielders; and Jaggers should be back ready for action soon

According to burtons website todd is a striker!!! One can only hope they have it wrong!!!

Jack Adams · 31-01-2006, 19:40

Obviously, no ideas about the size of the fee, but we don't pay big transfer fees traditionally.

shakermaker · 31-01-2006, 19:41

just had a thought, Todd won't be eligible for the trophy will he, after playing for Burton?

maybe we'll see the Rocky thing happening sooner than we thought!
I don't think the club could afford to bring another player in without shipping one out, adding another name to the wage bill without taking one off doesnt really make sense in our financial position of low gate revenue etc.

Probably next to nowt, which is why it's 'undisclosed'. Why won't the club ever let the fans know whats being paid for players?

ahh because that would be telling!!
it is common to not reveal the actual fee; with many deals going on at once agents will want to know why we ain't paying more for this player or accepting less for another etc...

Out of interest, how tall is Barry?

John_Timmins · 31-01-2006, 19:43

will probably be a selling on clause in the transfer thats why i always think we keep the fees private. to prevent a backlash from the selling of a player fro possible less than he is worth!

John_Timmins · 31-01-2006, 19:44

not very tall!

all together now....He's a midget, he is a midget...midget he is a chuffing midget!

like a terrier though, running for the full 90. excellent work rate

zayno14 · 31-01-2006, 19:47

not very tall but very strong..On your forum it says he breaks the play up and is not a playmaker but is good at both jobs which is why he is highly rated in these parts..

Jack Adams · 31-01-2006, 19:47

That's ok, we like midgets.

The 2 midfielders we've just sold to Hearts and Swansea, were both 5 foot 6!!!

Cafu01 · 31-01-2006, 19:50

He is smaller than 5ft 6in

Tin Monkey · 31-01-2006, 19:55

While I am shocked and disappointed to see Barry go, Coleman has my support 100%. I've never said that before, but his track record is second to none and I trust him to do the best for the club.
