No more please.
 

In London today and got talking with a Chelsea fan in the office

He was resolute they will get him, he said simply they will unsettle him and keep raising the transfer fee.

He said it isn't right what they do, but that is how it works as money talks and they have plenty of it.

I was dying to argue with him but I had no argument - we will sell when it hits a certain price

Tis is what I hate about the Prem....

But it's fine for teams like Everton to take a player from a club like Barnsley ?

Yes,thy like to wave their money at us.

Quite. And so begins the realisation of the nature of football fans.....

In truth though, we are in a different position to Barnsley, and Barnsley were willing to sell. We don't wish to sell, and another club (with different circumstances again) are trying to unsettle the lad, it would appear. We did not publicly unsettle Stones prior to signing him.

There are some differences to the situations I suppose.

Yes it is, as Barnsley need to sell to exist - Sadly wrong but true

At the moment we don't need to sell as we have the TV revenue, plus Martinez wants to build a squad that can challenge a CL Place and this is built around Stones at the back.
My issue is that Chelsea are buying Stones through the media, this unsettles him as he wants to play on the big stage and temptation to succeed takes over.
They wave the money, and it gets to the point were we have to say yes as keeping Stones is pointless as his head has been turned.

Both issues are not right, but guess it is the way of the world

Maybe I am getting to old for all of this :)
