    Such an air of negativity pervading through all walks of life - especially football and especially Barnsley football.

    I know I keep saying it and I’ll keep saying it until the message gets through - we have fabulous directors that have got LOADS of AMBITION for the club.

    I suspect their FIRST full season in charge hasn’t gone to plan.
    But they are only in first gear.
    They are building a team.
    Many of the targets they went for they are unlikely to get.
    But they got some - and patched up with others.
    A few more primary targets will come on board this summer.
    And then the season after more will come on board.
    Their plan for success does not involve selling.
    If other clubs want our players they will now have to pay top dollar.
    Unless something unforeseen happens that knocks the club off course everything is pointing towards a great future.

    Why do you persist in this continuous untruth about this board being in charge for one season ? List each member and have a look at when they joined the board then the penny might drop , they have been and currently are the reason for the problems we have today and going forward or to be more accurate backwards , we are currently a laughing stock , we are trying to recruit a new HC but they have made the job twice as hard by the way they treat and support the person in the hot seat, whether you liked Collins or disliked him it is irrelevant , the way they treated him was a disgrace , read his statement what he has made today & the guy has handled himself with class , its a pity the suits down at Oakwell could not have done the same , any person considering applying worth his salt will have taken a good look at the fiasco down at Grove st and say thanks but no thanks.

    Footnote : It is 2 years today that the new board if you want to call them actually took the reigns although a number of them were on the board a long time before , so that is two full seasons , two full pre-seasons , certainly not one season although one positive is that we only lost one FA cup match in these 2 years .

    Thing is Nudge, by the time the two seasons have passed the support will have dwindled to around 5k.
    The “top dollar” will come for possibly the only two players we have that we can “turn a profit” on. …. but the funds will disappear into running costs, not “Building” fund.
    The first gear they are in will be in use for a few more months…if not years…. Because we are definitely on a hard struggle to get up the promotion hill.
