Barnes will be off , won’t stay for the championship campaign and who can blame him. 
 

Top and Rudkin need to wake up…

...it really will be interesting if a player comes out to say he is staying to put things right!!!

  Piper was asked to go to balance the books, if we do not have to sell, it would have been interesting if Harvey had said he would stay.

[Foxxed]

As noted elsewhere, Barnes's apology was written by him and sincere. I value that a lot. Best of luck for the future, lad.

 

Perez's was some welcome comic relief. It's the only thing I've genuinely laughed at in weeks on here.

[Hales]

Roll up, roll up - Barnsey you are on the rota today.......

I wonder who's turn it is tomorrow? 😆

Hasn't VK said as much?

...I have not seen his post, obviously missed it!!!

He only signed last summer, so not surprised he is saying he is committed to staying.

I fear you may be right, but if I’m honest Harvey would be the one player I would highly prioritise to keep at all costs. His record in the championship when on loan with West Brom was really good he would genuinely be a level above the in the championship and a key part of coming straight back up.

Think he’s our second most expensive asset so think it’s a necessity, more likely to keep kels 

[Mickyblueeyes]

Nice message from Harvey. I suspect very few of the older guard will commit or use words to that effect. They are probably uncertain themselves.

Those saying nobodies saying "I will stay to get us up next season", if someone did and then was sold, you'd be slaughtering them. 

Let's see who's here next season and we can go forwards from there.

Some may have their futures out of their hands due to needing funds etc. 

.. I  am sure the club can suggest it, you do not have to comply!!!

We need the money to bail us out of our financial black hole. He's our third highest goal scorer of Prem history. He's served us enough without him sacrificing his blossoming professional career to Rudkin's incompetence.

...it would be good to sell at this point in his contract, it is how we look to sustain this club!!!

It is down to Barnes if he stays or goes and we will have to live with whatever he decides and wish him well, but it would have been good if he turned around and said he is going nowhere. He has nothing to prove, to anyone.

[Stinkenzo]

Reason VK is the only one to commit to staying is that he's one of very few people that are one (if not all) of either under contract, recently signed, or will have little to no interest from clubs elsewhere

I dont think we're in a financial black hole.  We have alot of wages off the book... barnes pribt is not earning too much.  The aussie bank loan can just be serviced.

As I say... when I have failed I have always said I will do my best to put things right.  Surprised barnes didnt say this.

I don't see much shade, just understandable cynicism towards a player who's spent four underwhelming seasons with us posting a rather pathetic highlights video a week after we've got relegated.

You can’t see the shade and yet you’ve posted multiple negative Perez comments including this response .  As I said, he was played continually out of position, often expected to make an impact from the bench. Always worked hard for the team when given the chance. Our squad was weakened when he left and was replaced by Tete.

They do care, they don't have to post it on social media to prove it.

We don't need a social media comment, we need a bit more of a ****ing jog from Youri Tielemans to ****ing prove it

[Always Next Year]

Are they drawing straws to see who’s next to say how f..king sorry they are for playing shit all season just piss off and let us get on with it.

Because it's not entirely up to him whether he stays. If the club turn round and say we need to sell you, then he's just gonna get called a snake by the fans for leaving

I think Dan is just a bit dim.

 

It's sad. I thought he'd have appreciated his time with us a bit more but obviously not.

 

I'll always appreciate the raised heart rate when in possession and his frankly astonishing commitment to passing backwards or sideways.

 

Go well, big Dan.

Piss take. My uncle had about as much right to have a picture with that in the club shop

I’m starting to hate this thread, yet at the same time intriguingly continue to read…

It was the significance and magnitude that counts. Not what it banjoed off, although I think it was his thigh then hand. In particular, I enjoyed seeing Chelsea players with their arms up appealing for handball. For once the VAR ref got it correct. 

When you put it like that I suppose 🤣

My dry cleaning bill will be considerably less now that he won’t be playing in our defence ever again

I cant believe people really care whether a player writes an ‘apology’ on their Instagram or not. Personally think every single one of these messages have been dreadful. I dont want to hear ‘im sorry’, ‘weve let you down blah blah blah’. I want to hear ‘we will do everything we can next season to make sure this club is promoted back to the Prem’. If you cant write that then dont say **** all
