Didn't want to start another thread.

Only chance of signing him was in pre season. Villa didn't want to sell and give him a 4yr contract

We play to Barry's strengths.. would another team be able to do that.. wont happen at many clubs

If he was our player.. he would go in January as someone would buy him on recent form

I had burton stream on.. line from commentator was brilliant.... 'Barry is a great player and it's a joy to watch a talent play football with a smile on his face, as if he is playing on the park with his mates'.

Let's enjoy him while he is here

It all depends if Villa consider he is developing as a player good enough to be part of their first team squad.
If so I think he will play the full season.

If he plays any part on Saturday then I think he'll stay.

If we had signed him on a permanent deal in the summer we would have a prized asset on our hands. Just hope we can make a deal before we lose him for good. His outstanding performances are making headline news every week so l wouldn’t be surprised to see something happen elsewhere in January although it is clear that Louie is happy with us and is loving his football in a Stockport County Shirt.

Totally agree! Just wish we could sign him permanently! Over to you Mr. Stott!

We would have loved to sign him in summer, but Villa weren’t daft.

Re: Barry on fire

I suspect there was a very small opportunity for us to sign him in the summer and Mr Stott and Mr Wilson desperately tried. If we had prized him away for a million it would have been incredibe business. Villa are laughing as we have helped turn his value to 10-12 million.

Re: Barry on fire

There's no way they'd have sold him for £1m; they bought him at 17 for £880k.

Re: Barry on fire

And to be fair he’s not a 12 mill player either, doubt anybody would risk that, more likely to be much smaller but with add ons based on appearances etc

Re: Barry on fire

Wouldn't it be great if the lad hinself had the final word?

We would still lose him, he has to think of his future

That's why he would sign for us

Whether he signs for us or not. County are the first club that he appears to be settled with. He is improving every week under our coaching team and training facilities at Carrington. He plays with a smile on his face and it comes across that he is extremely happy now playing with us.

I remember Danny Lloyd being the same and when he left he was never the same player again and is now languishing at Southport. I just have a feeling that the outcome with Louie could be the same.

Whilst you're right in terms of goals scored, to be fair to Danny Lloyd, he went on to play at a consistently higher (or equal) level than we were at for a number of years.

He played in the Scottish Premiership last season before moving to Southport, which is the first time since he left that he's played at a lower level than we're at.

Yep, he had a fantastic career which has set him up for life. He'd have been mental to turn down Peterborough. Although, from what he said when we did the live show with him a couple of months back, he was very close to signing a new contract with us despite their interest.

Re: Barry on fire

Lou is ten times the player Danny was. Just hope we can keep him for the season
