    1. We have a clueless naieve head coach who has tactically baffled me all season

    2. We have 3 players who are without a doubt good enough for our level in the entire squad- Pinillos, Pinnock & Bradshaw.

    3. We have about the 5th biggest financial muscles in the whole country and after 20 whole days we've weakened our midfield options while failing to get the required quantity of players in.

    Complete overhaul required. An overhaul of almost the entire squad, an overhaul of the coaching staff and an overhaul of what is now an absolutely pathetic wage structure.

    Spend, spend, spend in the next 11 days or we are a guaranteed League 1 club by February 1st!!!

    So much fun spending money that isn't yours hey?

    How rich our owner is has little relevance to how much money Barnsley Football Club has. We're only as wealthy as the money we have to spend, and you're assuming things have suddenly changed overnight. I assume you're just fishing though so I won't bite too much.

    Let's see what happens in the rest of January window, hopefully sihnings are made and hecky can keep us up then give him the summer and reassess next January. If it's still the same I'll be as disappointed as you now and then changes should be considered as for now patience, support is required.

    What is actually wrong with expecting four billionaires to pump 10 million into a project they want to do well. If it went tits up its still only like me losing a tenner darn back of sofi

    **** off with that mentality.

    I don't care how much money you have, 10 million is still a lot of money.

    You don't become a billionaire by treating 10 million quid as a tenner.

    With regard to point 2, if you are to take the third exit, do you think you should indicate right as soon as you are on the roundabout, and then change to indicating left once you have passed the second exit?

    And do you think it is not necessary to indicate at all if you are taking the second exit?

    3rd exit: indicate right then swap to left after exit 2.

    straight across: indicate left after 1st exit.

    Tactically baffled you all season? So are we to take you are the benchmark of what good tactics are? Should Hecky run his plans by you in future? Or is it just possible a guy who has spent all his adult life in professional football has a greater insight on such matters?

    You do realise you don't get it all at once? It's not an instant transaction that hits the bank overnight.

    I'm guessing that money paid for some of the spending this Summer. Possibly went towards some of the donations Cryne gave us over the years (no proof on that though). And will be used towards the £1.25 million costs for keeping the Academy open at it's current grade.

    Haven't we just spent up to £750k on a striker too?

    I am appropriately re-educated.

    My own gripe relates to those who meander down the fast lane on a dual carriageway just because they're going to go right at a roundabout which is still more than half a mile away.

    It isn’t missing. But chuff me sideways if you want to have an argument every Saturday you must have naff all else to. I can guarantee that a small part of you is glad we’ve lost.

    Because it's a business, and speculating loads of money guarantees nothing, especially when the majority of other clubs are doing the same.
