You are very clever with your modus operandi. Anyone can find a negative in anything and concentrate on that. It does make for interesting discussion, but used excessively becomes trolling.

I would argue that if we got a firm offer in the 500k to 750k region, the club would let him go.

What? A couple of million Buttons?
I'm fairly certain this story is from Barnes agent as contract negoiations are on the agenda.

Absolutely NO chance.
I love it when people take what Gus says literally to completely serve their own agenda - bearing in mind Gus's first language is not english (and frankly never will be)
I will remind you where we were when Gus took over, and where we were before that little run started - disappointing yes, Gus a sh!t manager - no.
Bore off.

Well a negative, that causes a run of one win in ten during a promtion charge, a run of results that in most cases would see a manager sacked, and a run of results that happened twice in the same season, I would say its a fairly important thing to concentrate on. Poyet is not the messiah people think he is. Hopefully he will take advise on those close to him, and have a plan B and more importantly use it from time to time. But if he carries over his stubborness and one track mind into the new season, and teams work out how to beat the system as they did last year, then I think its fairly safe to say we'll have a new manager by bonfire night.
If he learns to play to the squads strength, and not try and prove a system works with a squad of players not capable of it, he could well become the messiah.

I would be disappointed if we let Barnes go for anything less than £2m. Forget about his goals, his footballing brain and ability to follow tactical instructions make him one of our most important players.
Out of contract now I think. He signed a 2 year deal in august 2010.
Which means he can make any deal that suits him, be it Wolves, us or Manure. Up to him now (or his agent)

Gus has said the Dicker quote enough times to know exactly whats he's saying.
Taking of bore off, get over where we were when Gus took over. We had a underachiving squad, who with a number of additions Gus stormed the league with. Yes he was excellent in league one, but he has proved that he is incapable of changing things when things need changing when the opposition is better.
So I would take it by your reply, IF Poyet stuck with the same style that saw us go on our second poor run of the season last time out, and carried that over into this season and after ten games we had one win and 8 points, you'd be happy with that would you?
Which team in the championship or prem do you manage?
No he's not.

So do you think when you win one game out of ten with the same system, that that system works?
P.S. You do not have to prove you are a professional manager to answer the above question.

He's under contract to 2013 at least. And I think at the end of that we'll be entitled to some buttons for him, as he'll still be under 24 (I think)

He is better and younger than CMS, and developing all of the time. Whilst we over-paid for CMS, how much must Ashley be worth?

I bet we won't. Regardless of 'if' he does this or 'if' he doesn't do that. Unless he leaves of his own volition, of course.

A self confessed drug dealer with a username like yours, maybe you should take your own advice. Sad excuse for a human being
I don't need to get over where we were when Gus took over at all. It's a FACT, not my opinion.
So let me just get this straight. You believe, that with the squad of players we had, we SHOULD have at very least made the play-offs and according to you, won them, yes? (Based on your underachieving quote). Despite the FACT that last season, only 1 player in the entire squad (Vicente) has played regularly in any top division in Europe, and he didn't even play much until towards the end of the season.
Even now, we still only are going to have 4 players in the squad who have played regularly in a top division and Kuszcak and Saltor playing REGULARLY is stretching it. So, enlighten me, where is this squad underachieving exactly?
