Why ffs are we entertaining a swap deal when we don't have enough players fit anyway. Dopey ****s.

I don't honestly see a way out of the bottom 3/4 as things stand.

**** the Allams the pieces of ****.

But even if we only had 11 fit players......surely we would still let Dio go ??!!

He's exactly the sort of player you need in a relegation battle. He's an easy target for some on here. He's not the most gifted player, but he works tirelessly for the team. We need that more than anything else. Plus he's not often injured, which is more than can be said for most of our 'squad'.

It has to be him or Luer.

The player going to Barnsley is Campbell.

Adkins isn't a fan.

Presumably. It has to be either him or Luer.

What's the betting Diomande goes to Barnsley and starts scoring goals for fun

I'd put money on it.

As Barnsley have money, could it be Abel?

Mmmm tough choice.

Barnsley now or Turin in the summer.

I wouldn't put it past the thundercunts we have in charge.

Barnsley are moneyballing it, that means finding players that are undervalued. Hernandez won't be undervalued (actually he would be if they managed to get him to go there).

He will with not much time remaining on his contract.

Say we got this injured defender and £1m for a striker with 6 months contract remaining? Ehab would take that I'm sure.

I agree. It MIGHT be complete coincidence but haven't we won the last 3 times Dio has started (Bolton at home and the 2 cup matches) . I do think he works the oppostions defence hard and creates chances for others. But I suspect he's out of favour and on his way.

Nobody's going to pay money for a player, when he's out for half of the rest of the season, he's going nowhere until the summer (fortunately).

It's not beyond the Allams though. A small (ish) fee now rather than nothing in the Summer.

Do we get a smaller parachute payment next season if we’re relegated? If not then it makes sense as a non-football decision. As well as a fee that we don’t get in June, we get his wages off the payroll for an extra 4 months.

But it’s hypothetical, the player won’t go to Barnsley.

It's irrelevant what the Allams would do, nobody will bid for an injured player.

[HASHTAG]#hcafc[/HASHTAG]'s attempts to sign Rolando Aarons have been complicated by competition from elsewhere. City had been hopeful of a loan but there's overseas interest. Verona one club touted.

With a new set of studs, he could be alright.
You wouldn't believe that the Allams cost savings mean we can't even buy new studs, never mind a new player.
