Well said Shads. I think he's doing a topping job. The style of play is under scrutiny from certain sections but I'll never criticise players trying to pass the ball. Collins is trying to look at the bigger picture. With better quality opposition you need to keep the ball and use something other than hoofball to score goals. Afterall, we are one of the top scorers in league one. Then again, nearly averaging two goals per game and at times putting some excellent quick passing moves together, there's obviously much for Barnsley supporters to be bitching about and gates to be dropping
