Quote: sally cinnamon "I thought the narrative on here was, Barba was the type of player we needed and we had him signed, sealed and delivered but then he talked to Tony Smith who put him off Wire so he signed for Saints instead.
Anyway the difference between Barba and Widdop is Widdop hasn't joined us to pass time while he serves a drugs ban.'"
He he. My point was that often a player is lauded then derided by the same fan base once that player has committed to a rival.
Something odd must have happened with Barba, I mean he did visit the training facilities which does indicate discussions were advanced. Anyway as the old adage goes "you never know what bad luck saved you from".
