    And...???

    Genuinely sorry but I can't get wound up about it - from reading comments on here I thought he'd called us all cnuts or something.

    He said the boo-ing at half time was uncalled for - I personally wouldn't boo at all but it's understandable that some folk would - that first half was rank.

    Then he cocked up about the Man of The Match award - I think he's trying to protect his players, whether or not that's the correct way to go about it is debatable.

    Then the thing about players responding to the crowd getting behind them - he's criticising the players if anybody would care to show a little insight and listen to what he actually says.

    But again, what an absolute massive over reaction on here about it. Sensitivity overload.

    It's this that p.issed me off from the press conference

    "To get booed off at half-time is uncalled for. It's not a fair reflection of the true supporters.

    "They are seriously putting the fortunes of Barnsley Football Club in massive doubt."


    I don't think paying the extortionate price of £30 to attend a football match is putting the fortunes of Barnsley football club in massive doubt. Personally I think everyone who did pay that price should get a complimentary blow-job and be given a loud hailer so if they want to boo they can be damn sure the players are going to hear it.

    I don't think these people or those who invest in a season ticket can be described as anything other than true supporters. Without us there is no future for Barnsley football club. With us we might just survive despite the board running the club in to the ground with the pricing structure. The last thing we need when we're paying through the nose is to hear that the loss had nothing to do with Keith Hill and was partly our fault. We've lost 3 home games in the league now and Hill as used the same tact each time. About time he looked at himself, not us.

    And apart from all that, after the booing at half time we came out and played 10 times better than we did in the first half. The booing could be said to have had a positive effect, giving the players a kick up the arse, or maybe it made no difference, but what we can say without doubt is that it definitely didn't make us worse. So there's **** all reason for Keith Hill to bring it up apart from to hide his own short comings of not putting two strikers on the pitch from the start at home against the bottom of the league.

    He also thought that the crowd were booing Butterfield but it was actually at the baffling MOTM decision, David Preece also tweeted that he thought they were booing the MOTM.

    A daft thing to say

    Because at £30 a pop I'd venture that only 'true' supporters were there Saturday, whatever they think of Keith Hill etc.

    Look, I think he's a bit of a pillock for some of the stuff he's said but likewise some of the hissy fits on here are laughable.

    The one thing putting our 'good fortune' at risk is £30 to get in.

    Thought it was a bit of an essay myself but agree with him

    While the last two sentences on the official website (which I have to say the club would have had to have endorsde or would not publish), having also just heard the RS interview for the first time, agree with all this post 100%. I also thought he'd riped into our mothers and dead relatives when it was far, far from it

    The bit that has ****ed you off Jay, does it mean he will sling his hook if it carries on?

    I found it funny he blamed the lack of performance of the team in the first half was due to the 'atmosphere being not great' in the stands and thus transmitting to the players on the pitch - the guy is seriously deluded. What does he expect when we have just got a hiding the week before and are then losing at home to the side bottom of the league after he had been promising a performance all week. I then found it even more hilarious when he blamed the fans for getting too excited and made the players forget to do their defensive duties. F.cking ridiculous.

    I hope he starts getting results - because otherwise his mouth will walk him out of a job long before that if not.
