Talk of sacking him is laughable , he is getting a tune of these lads despite what the owners have done to the squad , it was severely weakened before a ball was kicked & then stripped of the captain and main player on the last day of the summer window , he was given a mountain to climb & in my opinion it might be an impossible task but Collins is certainly giving it his best shot .
I agree with all you say Shads but it is the "Barnsley Way" that Head Coaches rarely last two seasons.

If Collins has a poor start in the first two months of next season, either struggling in the Championship or failing to make much impact in another Third Division season, fans will get restless and the Board will bring in someone else by late October.
