It?s horrendous and cringeworthy to listen to.

And a reason IMO why JAQ often becomes unstuck here - because the downtrodden humdrum mindset of many in Barnsley is something rarely seen elsewhere.
It?s very likely she has never come across it before. Especially in places such as Australia and America.
I remember someone asking her a question about little old Barnsley.
And she looked flabbergasted and said something on the lines of ?the directors don?t see the club as little old Barnsley.?
I think you'll find that the good folk of this town are realists and not from planet fantasy of which you yourself seem to descend from .

The majority of people in the borough aren't downtrodden or play the victim , they get on with things the best they can .

The club have played one season in the top flight in 137 years , it was once a championship club but that league is now financially beyond us to compete in for more than a couple of season's .

So whilst you trade in predictions that never quite seem to come to fruition , it tends to roll that way with fantasists , the rest of us take a measured view of reality .
