SPECULATION - Giles Barnes...

is leaving Derby County. I thought he was tipped for great things.

Anyone know what has happened to him?

Supposed to be a uber cnut.

Wrong crowd, too much too soon. Usual stuff.

Didn't he go on loan somewhere last season?

Shame casue he looked like a more mobile Huddlestone when he 1st broke into that side.

Didn't realise he was a local lad.

We used to miss out on so many players till Hammond took over the academy...

Wouldn't say he was local, according to FM (the source of all sources) he was born in Barking. Anyway WCBAP, rumours going round he was on £17k a week and simply Derby couldn't afford to pay it. Me thinks he'll end up at Forest with his good mate Billy Davies.

Yeah I made the massive assumption you went to school in the local area.

FOrest does seem likely. Billy Davies being another uber cnut and all.....

:wink:

Grab him!
A player miles better than Kebe or Robson-Kanu, can play on the wing, still young, "one for the future", etc.
Go on, Rodgers!

The general opinion was that McAnuff was a bit of an uberwotsit when he arrived - maybe Rodgers gets the best out of that sort.

I've only seen Barnes a couple of times but he looks like a damned fine player when in the mood.

I have always thought that Giles looks class whenever I have seen him. Would they like Kebe in return?

He's been getting offered round for 2 - 3 years now.

The fact no one has taken him says enough.

I thought most of the things said about Jobi was that he was a good character.

They can have Kebe and Long.

Give them Gunnarsson as well, Clough seems to like OAP's in his midfield.
