How does a 4 hour drive (195miles) from Blackpool compare with a 1 hour flight from Birmingham?
It's all about the money! < <

As I said previously Barry doesn't always fly to Birmingham. He does sometimes drive/train it.
He has a house just outside Blackpool from his time at Blackburn Rovers. Blackpool nearer Scotland & will suit his family better. I very much doubt it's all about the money. He'll be taking a pay cut to move there. And he has fingers in a few pies as they say.

No particular problem with this move, I will have one if he claims it's to be closer to home, but just as a footballing move, it's up to him.

Watch out for Blackpool now. How many goals are they going to score with Ferguson playing balls through (oh yes, Holloway will allow him to) for Phillips to run on to and bang in the onion bag.

To think, that could have happened at St. Andy's.

I actually think I may have to give second thought to attending next season as this is now taking the P*** !

Fair enough out of contract players being released, fair enough players leaving for Premiership clubs, but losing your best midfielder to a team that finished below us ( and there were only 2 ) and are in the same division is just taking the p*** and removing what little self respect and ambition that the club has left.

If we have become smaller than Blackpool heaven help us !

i'm with you on this Pewster. there are too many coming out and saying his legs have gone and that he was crab-like in his passing movement but i really think this is more bravado (defending Blues) than informed opinion.

here is a player who has been integral in our success, when we had some, and formed part of the strong backbone of the team. unfortunately players like Ferguson, like DJ before him, are not always fans favourites because of their style of play without realising that they might not create much but they break up a hell of a lot and help us defend well.

the fact that he's gone to a rival club is just embarrassing. Blackpool have picked up a very good midfielder and will reap the rewards this coming season. he might be a replacement for Adam but he will help shore up an defensive midfield leaks they have.

i honestly believe that the owners of the club do not care who leaves as though it helps generate income or saves us money (on wages)... which flies in the face of them coming here to invest in the club and move us forward, both in success in this country and in the Far East. they've created this monster and it looks like they've no plan B to escape its clutches!

If he drives like he plays it will take him four years to get to Blackpool.

I really doubt he had an affinity for us after duracell Judas left. Lets not forget he was HIS player and he was allowed to train away from the squad in Scotland to spend more time with his family. Maybe Hughton won't allow him to do that? In which case he would ave wanted a move. Lets not put this all on the board shall we?

And whoever whined about his negativity, if he was such a negative player why do the most positive, forward thinking team in the PL last season want him? He is capable of being played another way.
