There's a hell of a lot been said about him that's just utter bollocks, he has definitely caused some of the problems himself and he'd admit that but it is absolutely ridiculous what certain people have said and insinuated about him.
Hasn’t helped himself with his lies, that caused the fans to start asking questions and it was always going to turn bad when we didn’t go up!
Has bob alluded to any time line for this investment?
 
Think he means Furnham buying SD out. "internal shares reshuffle" has confused a lot of people I think. They source is regarding GF as "internal" because of the loan but people are assuming otherwise.

So.....it sounds to me like Barnes is confirming what Magnus said yesterday. GF buying SD out, Sartori's FiL buying Methven out presumably to keep an oar in. Sartori keeping what he has.
That would do very nicely!

His lies are merely a lightning rod. Ultimately they’re a symptom of the fact that he’s an incompetent fuck who has set us back years. That’s the root cause of our issues.
 
So can we confirm that F is taking control with PP at the helm still and PP are now not involved in any shape or form. This coupled with FFP playing a role in the salary cap. Is this Ball, Phillips, Quinn, O'Shea and Cattermole's doing ?
 
To be honest, it sounded like Nick Barnes had a quick scan of the forums before he went on and was more discussing whether any such deal would go down well with us if Sartori remained etc. He didn't sound like he knew of the rumours before now.
He mentioned them when he first said about the group in exclusivity tbf.

I agree he's said a lot of things, if you listen to his interview with Barnes though he basically admits that, he said he didn't realise that absolutely everything he said would be scrutinized to the nth degree, you have to remember that someone who's grown up supporting Oxford doesn't really appreciate what it's like to live amongst north east football, you don't get this kind of scrutiny in any London club, I mean of course you get fans who hate you but we as fans have absolutely chewed the fat over everything he's ever said on a podcast, he probably just thought he'd have a bit if crack with fans and a pint and we'd all just understand if we didn't get promoted which isn't ever gonna happen at a club like ours in league one.

However, that doesn't make him a chancer or a charlatan.

If they'd been straight about the parachute payments from day one i actually think people would've accepted it. They should never have told the podcasts / The Echo that they were security only.
