Either way he should keep his trap shut until Ben becomes a Barnsley player - I can’t imagine Darren being so insensitive
Anybody with any class would have replied that we are always interested in good players and constantly look at options. At least something similar doesn't fuel speculation and possibly unsettle a player. Unless of course that's just what you are trying to do.
Why not? I don't understand the sensitivity around it.
I’ll be annoyed if he joins Barnsley because I’m pretty sure they can’t afford what he is realistically worth. If he goes there he’s probably gone too cheaply.
Would have thought Ben would wish for better than Barnsley,

What does it really say about Whiteman’s likely move away if at all .. because if Barnsley are the only bidders then he’s staying for the forceable , as I sure his ambition is to develop into an international class player not work his arse off fighting relegation every year !!
Whiteman starts i todays Friendly1-0 to Rovers after 6mins
Sounds like Mowatt could be moving on from what we are hearing .I thought he'd signed a contract extension but he hasn't has yet .This is important because once you have 12 months left on your current deal here it's sign a new one or you are sold .Starting to make sense why we are interested in Whiteman now to me personally .Not suggesting for one minute that we will land Whiteman but I'd expect us to receive at least £2.5m for Mowatt so we may be in a better position to get somewhere near Rovers valuation .
I think Struber would have been better advised not to be so specific about Whiteman .He could easily have answered the question by saying we are looking at a number of targets and left it at that .I wouldn't have liked it if another Championship manager had spoken so specifically about one of our players that they'd had been linked with .Pretty poor from us in my opinion .
