We've seen the heart ripped out of the team on three occasions since this plan was conceived in 2014 .

Ripped out when the club was in a good position to kick on , ripped out to the extent it cost us our championship status in 2018 , ripped out in the summer of 2019 when in any other season in the club's history it would have cost us our championship status , we did finish third bottom on the field when all is said and done and it's certainly cost us our championship place this season .

Players and coaches will inevitably leave the club but where they've all gone spectacularly wrong is never coming to grips with it and managing it correctly .

They could easily have fecked up the promotion under Stendel letting Moncur and Isgrove go to two rivals competing with us for promotion out of league one .

Who the feck does that ? , yes let em go but for ffs not to clubs you are in direct competition with .

They keep repeating the same mistakes because money coming in triumphs over any success on the field .

Now we are at the stage where there's no money left in the club's bank account , the club is destined for relegation possibly with the lowest points total in our history , the players are collectively worth next to nowt in the transfer market and 50% of our fan base have had enough and are walking away .

What's it going to take for them to wake up and change strategy or at least tweak it when it's necessary to do so .

We faced three major issues in the summer , the loss of our HC , our influential captain and we had to replace the goals Dike got in the second half of last season .

Those were the issues , nobody fecking expected them to replace them to the extent we would be pushing for a play off place .

What we expected was to be holding our own in the championship possibly lower mid table .

The bar was reasonably set by almost all of us .

They couldn't even meet a very underwhelming target .

We didn't know at the time of course, but when Conway gave Luke R and his Tykes tv mates an interview alongside Stendel, he seemed like a decent bloke then.

And it never really interested me what he and his colleagues had done or allegedly done at Nice Fc in France. I was willing to ignore that and hope he was an intelligent football man who wanted the absolute best for our club.

Hhmm, I wish I could take those thoughts back now lol.

Seriously though, Ive watched the Luke G video he did after the Blackburn match.
That has to be one of the most depressing vids hes ever done, because its all annoyingly true what he says. And it shows how bad things have got and have been allowed to get by these owners.

I wanted it to work out for Poya but it hasn't has it, and its obviously not going to because hes simply going to be another easy cheap option like Schopp was/is. I didn't realise he had such a poor record as a club coach/manager, and my first thoughts of 'underwhelming' when we appointed him, seem even more relevant now.

I haven’t seen the latest Tykes TV broadcast - but I’ll take a look later.

But on the subject of these owners.
IMO - Barnsley supporters are currently going through a period of mass hysteria.
But is there any wonder when the wheels have dropped off in such a disastrous fashion.
Most football supporters who take an interest in the Championship must be thinking - WTF has happened at Barnsley this season !?!?!

If we were mid table by now things would seem disastrous - but I’m sure there wouldn’t be this anger which currently exsists.
But we are bottom 2.
So the owners are going to get it big style.

IMO - these owners are not as bad as what is being portrayed.
They have put together some excellent players such as Collins, Mads, Helik, Brittain, Styles, Morris etc etc.
But those good players haven’t been enough.
There was a need for more - especially an experienced midfielder and a good target striker.
And on top of that they have made some atrocious decisions - including:
Dike debacle.
Khaled / Giddings interview revelations.

Schopp didn’t stand a chance of putting a decent team out when the directors where telling him how to play.

The one factor these owners have in their favour is that they have enough financial clout to turn things around quickly IF THEY WANT TO.

IF THEY WANT TO.

These owners are in it to make a few quid - but to do that the players and team have to be a success.
Us supporters are hurting like foook because of the state we are in.
No doubt the directors will also be hurting while they are adding up all the £££millions they are going to lose when the club is relegated.

That money can’t be recouped by selling players - as far more money has been spent bringing in all those young players than what can be regained from sales.
Basically because the value of the players has not materialised has expected because of the poor performances of the team.
Poor performances caused by poor recruitment (quality / experience?) in key positions.

For example - Styles hasn’t progressed - most of us thought in a few years time this player is going to be worth £5m to £10m.
If we sell him now - how much would we expect to get for him?
£1.5m ?
I.e - the same price as what Herbie Kane cost us.

A team full of young developing talent that was going to be worth £££millions in a few years time has been reduced to just two players - Collins and Helik - that’s worth putting in the shop window.

A club is only as good as its directors.
It’s time they looked at a different tactic.
Time to prime the pump.
Although in saying that - it’s probably too late now.

Im guessing they have put you back on their Christmas card list ehh Nudger ?.

So they aren't as bad as what we're portraying them ehh, and we're just going through mass hysteria ehh. I might have known it was us to blame, anybody but them!!. 😲

As I said - it’s understandable the level of unrest.
But it has to be put it into perspective.
The direction of the club over the last couple of years has been generally good.
We had an excellent season last season - winning game after game which CANNOT be claimed to be any kind of fluke.

What’s happened since then is the directors have stood on a couple of land mines.
We don’t know what happened with Dike - and confusion still surrounds that issue.
What we do know is whatever happened there has negativity impacted the team this season both in terms of on the field and the value of the squad.

And importantly we know that the directors have thrown the successful tactics from last season out of the window.
The CEO has told us this so it can be claimed to be a fact.
Strangely the CEO has been quiet since that interview. We can only guess why.

However - what some supporters are trying to do now is whip up hysteria.
For example claiming that the directors and CEO can’t wait for the January window to get started so they can sell sell sell.
What evidence is there to support this claim?
IMO - that’s a clear case of trying to whip up hysteria.

We have been told that the directors have abandoned the success of last season so the value of the players can be increased.
Incredibly the tactics drilled into the players last season has been thrown away.
So is there any wonder the defenders are not playing as a unit - or players such as Styles and Brittain are a shadow of what they were last season.

IMO there’s no need to try and whip things up against the direction of the club by using false claims when the Khaled revelations are staring supporters squarely in the face.

Why more hasn’t been made on here and the other site in relation to the Khaled / Giddings interview is bewildering.

Oh Nudge. Nudge, Nudge, Nudge. They don't pal. They REALLY DO NOT.

The sooner you step off the Yellow Brick Road and pull back the curtain, the better you'll feel. Honestly.

The only thing this lot ever had Grumps was luck , fecking lots of it .

Wigan's points deduction , empty stadiums and a pandemic .

Luck runs out and the real judgment of their four year tenure here is this season .

Had absolutely everything going for them here as far as catching breaks is concerned and still fecked it right up .
