    .......... it just does not make any sense at all.
    Just one of their players is worth all the Barnsley players put together.
    And they have a full squad of these highly paid players - probably the best squad in the division.
    An incredible result by Barnsley !!!

    It's reight tho int it.
    On paper they should be beating Barnsley 6 - 0.
    Their squad is worth £££millions.
    As Hecky said - they can field two Championship teams.
    Unbelievable result by TARN toneet.
    Especially when you consider a few of Barnsleys players haven't played at this level before.
    There's going to be many scratching their heads in Derby wondering how this happened.

    Their squad isn't worth £££millions though. They foolishly paid £££millions for the players but it doesn't mean they are WORTH that. They're just sportsman signing up to play at most 75 hours of football a year for them for 2 or 3 years.

    If coaching produces good players and a good team, then Hecky and Co. must be some of the best. Other teams believe success comes from paying ludicrous transfer fees and salaries, doesn't necessarily make a good team. It will be interesting to watch how this team progresses over the next year or so.
