    I certainly haven't got 2 faces.
    I never asked for Hecky to be sacked.
    I didn't want the Chinese takeover. As I recall there was only me & SB that spoke out against it (and took stick for it).
    I definitely didn't want this head coach.
    I haven't been over to Oakwell since Boxing Day and don't feel the slightest urge to return anytime soon.
    Football in general doesn't do it for me anymore. I believe Real Madrid are playing B Munich as I type. The wife's watching Coronation Street.
    I haven't watched Match of the Day all season, only fast forward through The Championship, and occasionally watch Goals on Sunday.
    Football to me right now is just something to bet on. It's a bit like wrestling used to be like in the 60's. All hype and no substance.
    You used to have to really do something to get sent off. Now you brush past someone, they hold their face, fall to the ground and you're off.
    Penalties, less than half the penalties given these days are never penalties.
    Twenty years ago I bet there was less than 10 sending offs and 10 penalties in the 4 divisions on a Saturday. Now, I bet there's 30+of each. As for VAR, great idea, rubbish implementation.

    1. yes you only have one face.
    2. hecky was not sacked he left for the bright lights and took 1/2 the Barnsley football's club staff with him.
    3. the takeover had to come no matter who took over remember the owner was dieing, the Chinese was the best proposal at the time anyone who apposed it, well lets say wanted the club to go to the wall.
    4. no one else with any credabilaty was interested.
    5. if tha ant been since Boxing day well that's up to thee.
    I wish you all a good night, I find it absolutely astonishing that some supporters of this great club can post on a web site with no respect for a head coach and owners who have only been in charge for a matter of months and dishing out the blame on them for the deplorable predicament we now find our self in, mmmmm its f**** disgusting you've been at um since day 1 and now we are going down your strutting about like banty cocks, saying I told you so no good would come of this, but for the few who no about football knew our card was marked as soon as the last rageem sold or did not renew our only championship players contracts, these people read these forums I just wander what they think.

    I was enthused at the takeover. Absolutely
    I wanted Hecky sacked.
    I lay the blame at the previous owner, Head coach and advisors for the fact that we didn’t carry on investing when we attained Championship status.
    Mr Cryne did wonders for this club. But should have appointed football people to look after his beloved club and they would have cherished his memory.
    Instead, he sold to people who behave like they have bought a second hand Mini as a first car
    They bought it, Patched it up, shined up the chrome, and showed it off to their mates
    But don’t know that you have to put Petrol, oil and water in to keep it going......

    We have been taken over by football virgins. On Sunday morning we will wake up amd realise that we have been Fncked royally.

    If you're still reading Colliers I don't blame Jose. He's been given an impossible task. Having said that, he wasn't the right man for the job.
    I know PC didn't have many options but this lot are clueless. He did what was best for his family.
    This lot are like the Venkys at Blackburn who didn't even know they could get relegated.
    Hecky left before he was pushed and anyone else would have taken the money in that situation.
    I had a feeling it wouldn't be long before foreign influences started being introduced. Nothing wrong with that if it's the right foreign influence. I'm guessing they just saw the names of some of his previous clubs and didn't bother to check what his contribution was.
    The only managers I've wanted out in the last 20 years have been Parkin, Spackman & Johnson.
    If you think this lot didn't get long before getting stick, spare a thought for Keith Hill. What did he get? 45 minutes against a team destined for promotion (Southampton). Now that was deplorable.
    I'm not strutting around, I've just lost interest.
    I've driven the length & breadth of the country, many times on my own, watching the reds in the lower leagues. Not with this lot in charge. Plenty of money, zero sense.
