Here's Barmby on buying Billy Sharp. Sounds like he at least discussed buying him with the Allams.

Here's the not606 thread discussing Barmby's sacking

Here's an HDM interview with the Allams.

I couldn't find the interview with Burns but I think he said Billy Sharp was too expensive and his wages would upset the dressing room.

Nick Barmby was replaced by Steve Bruce who had no problem ripping up the wage structure and spending their cash.

Welcome back, before I get you up to speed, a friendly word of advice. If you were to shorten your company name to, say, mars bar mineral mining drilling and excavation company tiger tiger tiger. You'd be a universal brand and would have all games beamed to you via one of patties imaginary links, plus all Martians would support city, then the club could kick on with phase two and annexe the moon, as I suspect our owners have strong links with the moon!
Right, the manager, Steve Bruce. Where to start. Well , erm , yes um, well he's f***ed off!
Can't blame him really, he's been offered a job at Siemens , he's always been interested in manufacturing wind turbines, right place right time an all that. Pays not great, but there's plenty of overtime and he gets every other Saturday off.
But fear not. Ehab is searching the globe for a replacement. Martinez, Ronald McDonald a bloke from costa coffee and the manager at pound land have told him to rub the job in his ever diminishing Egyptian hair. Patty was refused the job as both the allams felt uncomfortable with his ankles sticking out of their arses. So the hunt continues.
Regarding new players, to be honest there has been a slight hiccup. Although I am reliably informed ehab is in negotiations with a Pakistani school boy from Newcastle , who has in his possession a cardboard cut out of Alan Shearer. His plan is to mount this on a genuine Egyptian flying carpet.
The rest of the squad is black n white, either your injured or not, think it's 60/40.
We definitely have eight fit players for the opener against the champions. Which should be fine if we manage to sign shearer as ehab will loan the club two marine generators to pack the midfield .
The Americans, well they're currently back in America , where they're putting a bid together to takeover north Ferriby.

I really must close now as my medication is due and the nice wardens want my crayons back.
Yes , the two blokes in the next cell do speak Egyptian .
Apologies to anyone who has wasted two minuets of their life reading this drivel, but it makes me feel better

Thank you for that update.....well it's back to Mars on the next outbound ship then.....looks like the deep sleep pod is where I need to be for the next few months. I will cope better with your next update upon my return.....I will have worked my socks off in the mines up there and will finally be able to buy either a red pill or a blue pill.

They didn't trust Barmby to buy anyone, so the only players they'd bid for were their targets (so Barmby wasn't allowed to buy anyone he wanted to buy). FACT.

I know its painful but time moves on. Nick was a rabbit in the headlights. Couldnt make a decision.
We were certainly assured by you and his mate who used to post on here there definitely was money but Nick did not want to spend it and would live with his decision.

He wouldn't have players that he didn't want forced upon him, it's not the same thing.
